"Easy Image Personality Questionnaire with Insightful, Actionable Feedback"
What do you like best about Sova?

the image personality questionnaire is very easy to be made and the feedback report contains useful info like improvement tips Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sova?

For certain projects where we have a larger number of candidates (35+), we still need to manually consolidate the results in an Excel file, record the score for each competency, and then sort candidates based on the highest scores. This process can take several hours of work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Interview Management with Accurate Reporting"
What do you like best about Sova?

I like that Sova provides a whole report feature, which is very good because it saves us from having to manually take notes. The feedback reports it generates are particularly helpful because candidates often ask about their feedback, and Sova automates this process. This is really helpful since it means we don't have to draft emails and send feedback manually. Additionally, the initial setup of Sova was really easy and smooth, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sova?

Sometimes it does not generate the scores properly, and we have to go manually and see their interviews to score them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Strong Capacity Tests, but Swedish Report Translations Need Sharpening"
What do you like best about Sova?

I like Sova’s capacity tests. For me, as someone who recruits for both technical and commercial positions, it’s important that you don’t only measure logical skills, since numeric and verbal capacity are just as essential as traditional logic skills for being successful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sova?

Sometimes the translations in the reports into my most-used language, Swedish, aren’t as sharp as the English descriptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Evolving Platform with Strong Potential"
What do you like best about Sova?

As far as I know, the platform has evolved over the last three years. It has introduced many features that weren’t there earlier when it was first introduced to us, and I see strong potential for it to continue evolving further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sova?

The SOVA extracts could be a bit clearer. It would also be better if we could choose exactly what we want included in the report we’re extracting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Interface, but Video Issues Persist"
What do you like best about Sova?

I use Sova at a company to review internship candidates. I can see a recording of the candidates, which helps in the review process. I find it has a clear interface and is very intuitive, making it easy to use. The labeling system is okay. It was pretty easy to start using it, and on a scale from 1 to 10, I would recommend Sova with a 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sova?

Often the candidates' videos are bugged; they don't play at all, and I don't know if it's Sova's fault or candidates' fault, but yeah I had technical issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best advanced Virtual Assessment Platform"
What do you like best about Sova?

SOVA provides candidates with an analytical and logical assessment that goes beyond what recruiters can judge from a CV alone. It also aids candidates in building their personality. The customer support is excellent, offering prompt assistance with technical issues. We look forward to future collaborations to further enhance our productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sova?

We require additional assignments, personality checks, and evaluation sub-contents to ensure both candidates and hiring managers are satisfied. These should be tailored to niche skills and programs, making them easy to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
