"Hiring made easy! No joke. "

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

I love that TAM will post to multiple job boards with one click. We do not have to pay for any other service. I love that if I have to make changes to ad copy - I just log in to TAM and its updated across the board.

One of my favorite features is the ability to search the resumes by a certain keyword. Sometimes we will recall an applicant who had a skill in Tableau for example, but won't remember the name. With the help of TAM I am able to search all resumes and find that person fast!

I love the ability to write pass/fail questions that tell me the candidate is disqualified, so I don't waste my time looking at the resume.

A note must be made to the wonderfully helpful Jerry Su who helped us onboard and patiently helped me through every question and concern, following up on his words every time. That kind of work ethic is rare in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

I had to think about this for a few minutes. We had a hard time customizing our jobs landing page. I believe we ended up just settling with us. It is still not bad!

The frugal part of me cringes when we have to pay for TAM the months that we are not looking for new hires. You cannot pause for a month if you are not hiring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sasha, thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate your taking the time, and are very glad to hear that TAM is working well for you and your team.

We took a look at your company's careers page, which looks beautiful! It appears that you ended up using the page that our team created for you.

Regarding the months of your subscription that you are not looking for new hires... actually, we recommend that you continually recruit "passive" candidates to create a talent pool for future hiring. You'll find it more cost-effective to build a pool than to open separate, as-needed hiring processes.

Again, thank you for your feedback. It's invaluable to us and to future TAM users!

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

The responsiveness of the entire team, being willing to 'hear' our needs and come away 'understanding' what it is that our company needs to satisfy our own clients. The role TAM plays is vital to our company, from the analyst, to the developers, and the ongoing support team. I can tell they want to 'please' and they do not disappoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

Honestly, I don not have any negative feedback. So far, we are so pleased with TAM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

We just started using it and I just wish that I understand the ins and outs of how it would work for us and that the job posting would transfer well with CareerBuilder. As of now with our set up, its not working the way we thought it would. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Service and User Friendly"
4/5
What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

The best part of using TAM has been the fantastic service offered by the customer support team. We went through a rebuild of our system earlier this year and Jerry was so helpful in working with us to understand the business, what we needed, and help to get things setup appropriately. I also like that they are always working to improve, add new and better features, and make my life easier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

There have been a few technical bugs, and sometimes when you have to go in and change something (an approval flow, for example) after already setting it up one way there have been glitches. Most are minor, and can be fixed without too much trouble. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Anna thank you so much for your review. We are glad to hear you've enjoyed our great service and user-friendly system - we've certainly enjoyed assisting you when you need us! Data management in TAM, like anywhere else, is (as you know) essential, so it's important to keep in mind when you're making changes that might affect your TAM database. I'm glad fixing these issues hasn't caused you too much trouble, and please do reach out to us if you'd like to learn more about how to avoid data management problems going forward.

"Great tool for keeping track of candidates!"

Ease of use, charts are great that show the number of applicants per job. I like tags a lot and customization is great as our positions are quite niche-y. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

I would have liked the interface to be more appealing. I also think that it could be faster. Some pages with more information take a long time to fully load. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing applicant tracking system. Very efficient and effective!"
5/5
What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

It is very user friendly and has lot of features to make sure that the best candidates are selected. I like the format of the application and how you can edit it in many ways. It is very easy to find candidates though search. It leaves a paper trail for each candidate. you can open multiple windows at any time so if someone else calls back you dont have to stop everything to find something else in the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

After using different tracking systems I have to say that there is nothing i really dislike about TAM. It truly has been amazing to work with Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
