Not having to filter through applications that are not even in the running. Those applicants who are serious will go through the process to meet our requirements Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The transition in Plums design to Ultraviolet leaves us more questions and concern about our existing information with the app. We have finished our hiring requirements now, but what happens in the future for the data we have under this format that you are moving away from?

The new interface is very pleasing to the eye but lacks some functionality of the previous interface. It is very helpful that it buckets candidates by the job they apply for, and the specific criteria required to be successful in those roles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that the new interface was rolled out without the ability to search by a candidate's name to find them. You first have to locate which job they applied under, then CTRL+F to find the person. Can be more manual than necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the IQ screening component is valuable though it is quite derivative of western high school standardised testing (if you are British, think: CATs tests). From speaking to colleagues, this is something that is not necessarily normal in other education systems, so there is potential for bias against African applicants (I work in Africa). I would imagine, it is able to determine if someone is not a high school graduate, or is not computer literate with relative ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a personality test. Candidate's responses vary depending on mood, sleep and what they had for breakfast. Similarly, hiring managers probably have a perception of what they want in a character, but don't really know, beyond the patently obvious traits (reliable, hard-working etc.) It's value is limited to being a conversation starter, and as a conversation starter, it is a rather elaborate and expensive tool. I dislike the concept, the product is a pleasant looking vessel for a dubious, fledgling science. I am deeply uncomfortable that we screen candidates with such authority based on what this platform tells us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Plum to help us understand which candidates are worth digging deeper with. We also have found people who we might not have been initially interested in based on their resume who turn out to be a great fit for our agency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

More personalized interview worksheets would go a long way to perfecting their offering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plum has significantly improved our ability to quickly filter and rank candidates' fit for new roles across a spectrum of demonstrable analytical and psychosocial skills. Since we started using plum as part of the hiring process on our team, our quality of candidates and likelihood for role fit has gone up exponentially. We haven't had any regrets to-date with candidates hired into permanent roles with plum as part of the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's a bit of a learning curve to using plum well and understanding how it works in the background, but once you master that; its an indispensable hiring tool! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ease to use the profile and the detail it give us and the people applying for the role Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't tie into the application program we use as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plum made it easy for me to find the best candidates to consider, and helped me to prepare for the interviews. Super helpful in reducing resume overload, and in making sure I know key areas to explore with each person I considered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There was a little bit of a learning curve when I first started using the platform, but Plum has made a ton of changes that make the platform easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having recently had to transform our organization and recruit a number of roles quickly. Plum was critical in helping me test and identify a large group of potential candidates and to be able to help me short list the best of the best to interview first Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Had some problem solvers come through the test at 100 out of 100 that clearly weren't elite problem solvers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been able to get a deeper understanding of our candidates and determine what strengths and weaknesses they might have before they are hired. Every employee has received their Professional Development Guide and is creating short/long term goals with their manager. This has revolutionized how our managers interact with their employees while keeping our employees engaged. All hires are now taking custom Plum job matches for the entire company.

I would like to be able to customize the order of the jobs listed in the portal, mark employees as terminated if they do not last, and have statistical data regarding the information already available. The site appears to have some bugs in it - it will frequently crash and take me back to the dashboard, and it will not show the correct number of "great matches" on the dashboard.

I love the personality assessment and pieces of content that potential employees are graded with. They are very insightful and are useful for 1) easily narrowing down the fit, and 2) helpful for interview questions. Along side the personality assessment, the ease of use for potential candidates uploading resumes. We use plum as the last piece of the application process in order to filter down our results even more for potential employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the monthly payment system. I actually think it would be more beneficial on a "per" assessment or job description payment. There are months we go without using this and still pay the $200/mo. It is also hard to really manage your "Account" per say. There really isn't an account management page where i can manage users, billing , etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
