I was blown away with how organized and transparent the process was. > > **Cons**: The one way interview was a bit daunting but if you want the job you will do what it takes... That being said, now as a hiring manager for all customer facing rolls, I work with them now too. > > 10 out of 10. You actually meet with the \[sensitive content hidden\] when you schedule a demo and they really listen to what you need before going through the platform instead of jamming product down your throat. ----- ### "Great Company - Excellent support" — 5.0/5 > **Andrew** | *25 January 2024* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We appreciate the support that we receive. We get a lot of quality candidates and are paying less than when we were going direct through some of the big platforms. It's been a total win/win for our company. > > **Cons**: No complaints. Sometimes the view of expired jobs is a little tricky to navigate, but that is a very mild con. The system is very straightforward and easy to use. > > It's been a great experience. The system is intuitive and easy to track applicants from the beginning of the process and all the way through. Our rep regularly checks in with us to see if he can answer any questions or help us optimize for our goals. ----- ### "Very Satisfied Customer" — 4.0/5 > **Tonya** | *25 January 2024* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Live-person customer service. The ease of posting jobs. > > **Cons**: Need more functionality to weed out non qualified applicants from resume submission > > I have been a Hiring Steps customer for over 5 years and I have been super pleased overall\!\! ----- ### "Hiring is easy and super effective with Hiring Steps" — 5.0/5 > **Doug** | *29 January 2024* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: All candidates details are collected from all the job boards and organized in a the ways I like. Each potential employee moves from applied to various interview states, to final hire, which makes it super easy regardless of the source of their resume/application. Overall I don't see anything that compares to the ease of use and true agnostic nature of a hiring platform. > > **Cons**: Nothing comes to mind because they don't have any issues in their software or online systems. For future enhancements maybe have more onboarding items, like training videos to be assigned to new-hires from the platform (which probably expands their business in other areas). > > Overall the software is great, and the leadership within the company is outstanding. They are both consultative and practical when helping be bring on more talent to my team. ----- ### "I LOVE This Platform & Recommend It To Clients All the Time\!" — 5.0/5 > **Susan** | *25 January 2024* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The one thing I don't have is time. Hiring Steps has really nice automation that lets me/us move candidates through the process very easily. I really appreciate that - it's intuitive enoght that the \[sensitive content hidden\] of the Company can use it. > > **Cons**: Not always as intuitive as I'd like - \[sensitive content hidden\] gets lots of questions from me\! > > Very positive. We use it with clients and recommend it to everyone\! ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/435031/hiring-steps) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
