"Intuitive Platform, Great Support, Faster Hiring"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DirectEmployers Association?

I like how intuitive the DirectEmployers Association platform is and how easy it is to share the outreach I’ve completed. The customer service team’s support and education are great. I can easily reach out to new organizations across the country and use their known networks to amplify our positions, which helps me fill jobs quicker and grow our employer brand. Tagging an email address to outreach makes it easy to introduce Tech South to new employment partners and helps us market and advertise to new individuals, including military and civilian personnel. I also enjoy the monthly seminars and video calls with new employment partners, which introduce me to segments of the population I haven’t reached out to. The initial setup was extremely easy.

What do you dislike about DirectEmployers Association?

I enjoy the monthly seminars and video calls with new employment partners. The only thing I might tweak is having an extra one, if that’s possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy ATS Integration Expands Outreach, but ROI Reporting Could Improve"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DirectEmployers Association?

I use DirectEmployers Association for hiring compliance. The integration with our Paycom ATS was straightforward, and it automatically distributes our open positions across a broad network of job boards and employment resources. It helps reduce the recruiting team’s admin burden and improve outreach to diverse talent pools. I also like that the platform is flexible for targeting specific audiences and markets, and that its analytics help measure job visibility and performance. Setup was simple and took no time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectEmployers Association?

I’d like more visibility into ROI and hiring outcomes across distribution channels, with additional reporting and candidate source analytics in the recruiter dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Membership Ever"
5/5
What do you like best about DirectEmployers Association?

I think DE has great content from the federal contracting corner resources to the community blog to the events. Everything has been very informative and hasn't disappointed us! We have been incredibly impressed with it all. In addition, we have had the best transition experience ever. Everyone on the team was amazing and made it as seamless as possible. We have our crossposting set up and are notified if something seems off. We have access to all of our outreach and reporting efforts and the platform is incredibly user-friendly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectEmployers Association?

Nothing - we love it all. We have not experienced anything we dislike. We became members mid-year in 2024. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jaime Costilow of DirectEmployers Association

5/5
What do you like best about DirectEmployers Association?

I really appreciate DirectEmployers Association for their great customer service. They are always willing to train and go the extra mile for us. I like that they do repeat trainings as needed, depending on our use of the system. Also, when we reach out for a partnership and don't get a response, they investigate to update the appropriate contacts in their system and provide other options if needed.

"Real-Time Insights, Easy to Use, and a Super-Responsive DE Team"
5/5
What do you like best about DirectEmployers Association?

Real-time information and ease of use are what stand out most for me. The DE team is always available to help and guide you through the different ways to use DE Works, Recruit Rooster, or the NLX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectEmployers Association?

I think the partner relationship manager could be more user-friendly. For example, it would help if individuals could contact partners directly from the DE site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the fact that DirectEmployers Association is constantly checking in on us without micromanagement.

It's refreshing compared to the typical sales calls, as they genuinely try to help us as an organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Invaluable Partner for OFCCP Compliance and Job Distribution"
5/5
What do you like best about DirectEmployers Association?

A reliable and expert partner that simplifies VEVRAA and Section 503 compliance while providing exceptional support. What I like best is the peace of mind that comes from their deep expertise in VEVRAA and Section 503 regulations. They don't just provide a platform; they provide guidance, ensuring our job feeds are distributed to the required state and federal job boards correctly and efficiently. This expertise, combined with a platform that is intuitive and effective, makes them an indispensable resource for our compliance efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectEmployers Association?

In all honesty, we have not encountered any significant downsides. The platform does exactly what it promises with high reliability. The initial implementation was a project that required our attention, but their support team was with us every step of the way, making the process as smooth as possible. We are very satisfied with the service and have no notable complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
