"Amazing, easy to navigate website"
What do you like best about Spark Hire?

The ability to collaborate with collogues when it comes to sending and reviewing interview videos. The ability to do this makes my job working remotely much easier as I know the status of what people believe the quality of the interview to be. It very easy for us to use this as a team and whenever we have issues, customer support is a big factor and a big help to us. There are so many good features for this website and I would recommend to anyone as I use this on the daily at work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spark Hire?

there's not enough features to sort the videos, I wish for a feature to filter the videos by who sent them and make it in alphabetical order in order to make it easier to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Spark Hire for Recruiting in Higher Education - Update"
What do you like best about Spark Hire?

Spark Hire replace our initial phone screen process a few years ago. It has saved our Talent Acquisition team hours of work in screening candidates for first-round interviews. The platform also provides a ton of flexibility for candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spark Hire?

We have not had very many negative impacts at lately. Many times it can be user error, and if you contact customer support, they are prompt and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Patrick O'Connell of Spark Hire

Thank you for your constructive and valuable review! We're thrilled to hear switching to video interviews over traditional phone interviews is saving your team time. We appreciate you. Stay Sparky!

"SparkHire Review - Overall Great Experience"
What do you like best about Spark Hire?

Spark Hire has really helped speed up our hiring process and made things more efficient overall. The one-way video interviews are especially useful since they let us review candidates on our own time and share feedback with managers more easily. It’s saved us a lot of back-and-forth and made the process smoother for everyone involved. The onboarding was simple and straightforward, and any time I’ve needed help, customer support has been quick and easy to work with. It’s nice knowing there’s always someone available if a question comes up. I’ve also noticed Spark Hire keeps adding helpful updates and features. Being able to share interviews seamlessly and having a cleaner dashboard have been big improvements that make our work even easier.

Overall, it’s become a really valuable tool for our hiring process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spark Hire?

What I like least is that when Spark Hire first rolled out updates, I sometimes found it harder to locate certain features just because I wasn’t familiar with the changes yet. But when I reached out, their support team replied within 20 minutes and walked me through it, which made a big difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good, but could be a little better."
What do you like best about Spark Hire?

I really like how SparkHire allows us to screen a large number of candidates while using very little time. The ability to slightly speed up the videos helps make the process even more efficient, and I appreciate how easy it is to collaborate with my colleagues by discussing the video interviews directly within the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spark Hire?

One challenge we’ve experienced with SparkHire is that some candidates are hesitant to participate because it’s a one-way video interview platform. While that hesitation is understandable and not entirely within SparkHire’s control, the recent addition of AI features — and the fact that they are advertised to candidates — has created more resistance. Even though our company does not use these AI features, we’ve seen an increase in candidates emailing us with concerns or declining to participate because of them.

Additionally, I have not had the best experience with customer support. When I forward candidate emails to their team (often including the candidate in the thread), I would like SparkHire to engage directly with the candidate to resolve the issue. Many candidates tell us they’ve already reached out to SparkHire themselves but were not able to get help. As a result, we frequently need to move candidates to phone interviews due to unresolved technical issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ease of Use"
What do you like best about Spark Hire?

Spark Hire is really easy to use. With our prior platform, I used to spend hours creating tutorials for principals and hiring administrators. When we got Spark Hire, I started putting a guide together but quickly realized a super detailed instruction manual was not necessary as Spark Hire walks you through the process step by step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spark Hire?

I really can't think of anything. Our prior platform did integrate with our recruiting and hiring software, but I haven't missed that feature at all, as I can share the one-way video interview link from Spark Hire in many of the applications we use (email, recruiting and hiring, etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Patrick O'Connell of Spark Hire

Thank you for your insightful review, Phil! We're glad to hear you find the platform easy to use. We strive to make it as intuitive as possible and we're always working to improve to make your job easier! We appreciate you. Stay Sparky!

"Workflow Wonder"
What do you like best about Spark Hire?

The most impressive thing I enjoy about Comeet is the ability to get applicants through workflow so efficiently. We have the ability to customize it to the needs of individual hiring managers, which gives them the ability to push things through without waiting on HR to do their part. Implementation was seemless with an amazing support staff who answered questions quickly, and trained our hiring team on the system so well, it became really straightforward to use on a daily basis. It also integrates so nicely with other systems we use, and the reporting is so helpful as we make our annual hiring goals and work toward making the interviewing and hiring process accessible and simple for applicants and managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spark Hire?

Nothing. Each time an issue arises, it is quickly addressed by our amazing support team. There have been a couple processes that had to be adjusted, but the support team helped us customize the system to work with what we needed to make those adjustments minimal.
