  ### 1. Unsatified User

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Chemicals | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 24, 2018

**What do you like best about Hire by WorkWave?**

It allows for online applications and we can fairly easily add qualifying questions to our applications to make them more job specific. We can also blind the EEO data, so that it can only be seen in aggregate reporting data rather than on an individual basis. 

**What do you dislike about Hire by WorkWave?**

It is a very limited and very pricey applicant tracking system with contracts renewing on an annual basis and no early termination or cancellation terms. The site has limited functionality and is neither innovative or intuitive compared to some of the newer ATS software options. It does not link up to sites like Linked In to accept applications, and does not provide reporting to connect to our HRIS system. 

**Recommendations to others considering Hire by WorkWave:**

It's good for a small company that needs to offer online applications and collect EEO data,  but that's where it's features did usefulness end. 

**What problems is Hire by WorkWave solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are meeting legal requirements to track applicants and provide EEO data on applicants. It also allows us to complete electronic applications through a link in any job ads that we post. The only benefit is an electronic application and EEO applicant reporting capabilities. 

**Official Response from Jeff Davis:**

> Thank you for taking the time to review.  We've taken all of your comments back to the team for review.  I'm happy to see that you're still a customer a year after this review; we certainly appreciate your business.  Over the past year we've released major system enhancements including Indeed Easy Apply, our prospects function, updated Working Style Assessment, enhanced texting, and now we have one of the first Facebook integrations (included at no charge).  LinkedIn is available as a paid service, as with any ATS.  We also have a standard CSV output that works with most HRIS.  Your account manager will be reaching out to learn more how we can help.
