What do you like best about Workable?

It's easy to use in general, and easy to collaborate with other members of the hiring team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

It's frustrating that you can't comment on records or email candidates unless they are attached to a job. As an in-house team, we quite often stumble across someone on Linkedin that has changed jobs and we want to make a comment on their record on Workable so that others in the hiring team are aware of this change. We aren't able to do that without adding that person to a job. We also can't email a candidate in the database to see if they are open to talking about a job without first adding them to an open job. It's a big limitation for us.

The search function isn't very good either, and relies on tagging. As we have different people tagging, the tags aren't consistent so we don't get great results with this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

It keeps a record of all of our jobs and candidates. It also keeps all of our interview templates organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workable?

I have all the features in one place and it is easy to automate processes, and communications and invest less time to manage the hiring processes.

Also, the customer support team is VERY fast and approachable.

I use it daily for all our tasks.

I find it easy to integrate it with other tools and job boards.

I like that now we depend less on the CX team and can solve things by myself (e.g. moving requisitions to specific roles). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Sometimes it is not easy to track candidates (e.g. moving a candidate from one stage to the other doesn't move you to the candidate you are moving but keeps you on the same stage. This makes us make mistakes when focusing on a specific candidate).

Also, the integration with LinkedIn Recruiter is not the best (e.g. when exporting a candidate's profile from LinkedIn Recruiter to Workable, it is automatically uploaded with a link to the profile, but not the whole hiring team has access to that, if they don't have a Recruiter's account, so either we need to manually download the .pdf from LinkedIn, or copy their public profile for the rest of the team not related to Talent to check the candidate).

Reporting could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Automation; integration with job boards to seee all candidates in one place; one place to manage the roles by updating only once and not in every job board; AI tool to screen high-volume roles; templates to communicate with candidates; quick picture about hiring funnels; reporting (for basic reports). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workable?

What I like best about Workable is its user-friendly interface and powerful AI-driven features, which make sourcing, screening, and collaborating on hiring decisions both efficient and seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

What I dislike about Workable is that its AI-driven candidate selection can sometimes miss relevant profiles, and some features, like job postings, require a company website, which may limit flexibility for smaller organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workable solves challenges in recruitment by centralizing job postings, streamlining applicant tracking, and automating candidate sourcing using AI. These features save time, enhance collaboration across hiring teams, and improve the quality of hires. It also offers customizable interview kits and detailed analytics, helping optimize hiring strategies. This benefits us by making the recruitment process more efficient and enabling data-driven decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workable?

Easy to use. Contains a lot of options, but it isn't overwhelming to set up, to train, or to use. It integrates with Outlook, so users can easily and efficiently communiate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

It doesn't integrate with our version of ADP, which means we cannot use for on-boarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ability to manage 100s of job ads in various states at the same time, creating consistency among ads. Also easy reporting allows you easy insight into your pipeline and production. It also allows you to easily track individual user production. Our old ATS did not integrate with Outlook, so communication was cumbersome. Workable integrates with Outlook so we can email and text through the platform and the use of bulk email and text is a great feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workable?

The Workable hiring system has completely transformed our recruitment process, and I cannot recommend it enough! It’s an intuitive, all-in-one platform that makes managing job postings, candidate pipelines, and hiring workflows seamless and efficient. The user-friendly interface ensures that even team members who aren’t tech-savvy can navigate and utilize its features without any hassle.

One of the standout aspects of Workable is its automation capabilities. From automatic candidate sourcing to streamlined communication with applicants, it saves an incredible amount of time while keeping everything organized. The AI-powered candidate suggestions are remarkably accurate, often recommending highly relevant candidates that we may have missed otherwise.

Another fantastic feature is the collaboration tools. Our hiring teams can easily share feedback, leave comments, and make collective decisions without confusion. Workable’s reporting and analytics give us clear insights into how our hiring process is performing, allowing us to continuously optimize our strategies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
