RCU is now using Lever **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nina S. | Assistant Manager, Talent Acquisition, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2023 **What do you like best about Lever?** Very easy to use and navigate. We love the requisition and approval forms with the routing for approvals built-in. **What do you dislike about Lever?** You can't post a position in multiple locations.

Ease of use in reporting is also a big plus. **Official Response from Jill Fox:** > Thanks for the review, Nina! ### 47.

One stop solution to manage hiring of best talents **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Akshay M. | Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 01, 2023 **What do you like best about Lever?** Lever is so easy and simple to use , simplicity is what makes it different from other solutions. The way everything is handy and how everyone in the team from recruiter to HR to interviewers can seamlessly make use of it, is just amazing. **What do you dislike about Lever?** It's missing many features that this new gen similar solutions are offering, for example automatically reviewing the resume and parsing LinkedIn and GitHub information to show everything about the candidate in the portal itself is missing in lever. **What problems is Lever solving and how is that benefiting you?** Lever wants to be a simple and easy to use one stop solution for your hiring needs. I love how our recruiter just have to do a job posting and every profile that applies for job position is instantly visible and so easy to schedule the interview. The entire end to end journey is very smooth. **Official Response from Jill Fox:** > Thanks for the review, Akshay! ## Lever Discussions - [Why haven’t you made it simple for mobile usage?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/why-haven-t-you-made-it-simple-for-mobile-usage) -
