"Good tool and great service!"
5/5
What do you like best about Karat?

They have an incredibly fast and friendly support team, the platform is easy to use and provides us complete access to the interviews and many data points to support our decisions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Karat?

Their analytics tools could be better; there is not an option to export data to Excel files directly from their website (although the support team is always ready to send when requested) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Time Saver!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Karat?

Karat allows our engineers to have a little more time on their calendars by not having to administer assessments themselves. They also have detailed feedback from Karat reps to make the most informed decision about their candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Karat?

There is nothing I particularly "dislike" about Karat, however I will say the calibration process in the beginning with a new assessment can feel a bit daunting. It is clear why it is necessary though and ends up making for better outcomes in the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Karat Honest Overview"

I do not think that there's any problem or dislike because with the help of the Karat we are taking interview in a very easy way, so i would not say that there is any dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Candidates Dislike it, So Do I"
1.5/5
What do you like best about Karat?

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.

4/5
What do you like best about Karat?

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.

Candidates appreciate learning about internal engineers experience at a company during a tech screen. Since Karat utilizes external resources, interviewees are not getting this opportunity until a later call. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
