Easy to setup and send to candidates. Feedback within 24 hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Karat? This is part of our candidate experience, so it is very frustrating to have an interviewer who is more concerned about making a few hundred dollars than actually helping a company move the needle on hiring. It's a transaction for them. Also, at first, they rejected everyone...we are a small startup and had candidates from Amazon, Twitter, Shopify, etc...all failing. I had to write to Karat multiple times because candidates were complaining about how awful their interviews are. Save money, train your team up on doing live coding assessments and do not use Karat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Karat solving and how is that benefiting you? Not many - it actually adds a step. By the end, no one trusted it.

Provides a lot of flexibility in scheduling interviews for the best time for candidates. Additionally, the quality of interviewers and candidate quality reporting is very impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Karat? We have some roles that Karat does not have interviewers or interviews prepared to do. We work with Karat to develop these as-needed, but it is a lot of work for a specialized role. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Karat solving and how is that benefiting you? We typically hire year-round and that involves a fair amount of technical screening work. This is done by our Engineers and technical teams and that reduces overall capacity for product development.

Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 5/23/2023 "Karat is great for large volume recruiting" 4/5 What do you like best about Karat? - Easy to use - Self-scheduling - Can interview mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. - Interviewers are good at interviewing and fair assessments - Prompt feedback Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Karat? - Questions are designed to prioritize speed over optimization. - The candidate experience is not ideally tailored (using third-party services instead of in-house interviewing). - Some questions are more time-consuming to comprehend, making it difficult for candidates to complete them within the allotted time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Karat solving and how is that benefiting you? Before candidates can speak with the Hiring Manager, conduct a technical assessment for the beginning stages. This is best suited for early-career interviewing, especially when dealing with a large volume of candidates at the beginning stages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
