"TAM has united our HR operations with other municipal departments!"

5/5

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

Being able to share applicant information without having to print all the documents has been a blessing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

I dislike that I have not had time to learn all that I can regarding using TAM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering The Applicant Manager:

I believe businesses that have a need for a Human Resource Information System should give The Applicant Manager a try. The representatives are excellent and knowledgeable, and the costs will definitely suit your company's budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?

TAM has alleviated the time spent on researching every minor detail of the hiring process; all our information is documented, or uploaded to the system (i.e. who is being replaced, if an applicant is a current employee, the residency of applicants, and the like) for ease of access. One benefit is that these options help Human Resources and the directors keep track of details important to the hiring process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I use TAM for my recruitment needs along with one other recruitment manager at my company "

3.5/5

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

I really like how I can move candidates through steps, send off resumes very easily to managers and have templates for e-mails to send ot candidates. I also like that I can see if they have applied before and that I can write notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

I am not sure if I am able to, but it would be nice to have an address book for my e-mail as I am sending e-mails to managers all the time through TAM and would like to be able to choose their address from TAM.

I also would like to see an more structured way of rating their quality. Maybe a way for my company to put in there what 3 stars or 4 stars means to us? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Shannon - thanks so much for your review! Some of our best features started out as suggestions from our clients! As for emailing managers, TAM does work with your browser's auto-fill, so any common addresses should populate as you type. If you're looking for more of an address-book-esque function, setting up user accounts for those managers would definitely help. At your convenience, we'd be happy to review your options with you!

"Easy installation and very user friendly."

5/5

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

Point and click ease of use. User interface is very intuitive and easy. Uploading attachments are very simple. We produce work lists based on whatever criteria we choose.. Selecting groups of applicants for job skills are simple to produce. The system is flexible to meet our varied needs for workflow and approval processes for our various employment groups and occupational types. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

Reporting needs to be strengthened. We would like the ability to make minor revisions to the application over the life of the application such as address and telephone number changes. The applicant is forced to submit a new application if there are minor changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best of its kind!"

5/5

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

Easy to use, versatile with big software capability, perfect for the small to mid-sized company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

There's no address book feature. The auto populate is very helpful, but it has limitations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering The Applicant Manager:

3 years ago, I went to a Monster event and asked other recruiters for suggestions of ATSs for our small company. The Applicant Manager (TAM) was what I ended up buying and have never regretted it for one minute! So much bang for the buck, it's unusual today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed to transition to software and away from tracking applicants with Excel. TAM was easy to sell to my leadership. The investment was minimal for the number of users we had at the time, and it was simple to implement. It's been easy to train new recruiters on as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The job posting ability is very robust. It posts on several job boards at once which is a huge time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is frequent outages during the day for upgrades. Should be done outside standard working hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

Ability to upload multiple documents at once, and easily see the status of a role inside a job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

In regards to what I dislike or what I would change, my focus would be on the search function as I find that it is rather sloppy. Also, I do not get much use from the alerts., maybe an update or self selected alerts? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering The Applicant Manager:

Affordable, reliable. Good customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use TAM to track applicants interviewing with our clients, the ability to have resume, notes, contact info all at a quick search is great but not unique to TAM I am afraid.I do think there is a good knowledge base that I have referenced several times in the past for quick answers.

Hi Crystal - thanks so much for taking the time to submit a review - we appreciate it! Have you had the opportunity to use our advanced search features? Based on your comments, it sounds like Event Triggers are going to knock your socks off for those self selected alerts and other automations! We'll be hosting a webinar soon to expand your use of our features and we hope you'll be able to attend! In the meantime, please reach out to your account manager at your convenience for immediate aid in searching- thank you again!
