ICIMS

As a recruiting coordinator, my main use case for iCIMS Recruit was to import candidate resumes into their candidate profiles within the system and also monitor feedback form submissions from interviewers for in-person onsites.

In my role as a recruiting coordinator, if a candidate's phone number was missing, it was easy to import that to their candidate profile, and the same applied to their resume. I also sent reminders to interviewers to submit their feedback form or scorecard within the system if the interviewer did not submit it within a specified time frame and SLAs that were established at the time and before the debrief happened.

The best features of iCIMS Recruit in my use case were being able to monitor interviewer feedback form submissions and send reminders. Particularly, I owned in-person onsites at Uber ATG in Pittsburgh.

Both the reminders and monitoring stood out to me in that it made my workflow smoother and was also about accountability.

iCIMS Recruit can feel overly complex at times. I would recommend making the user experience workflows simpler without reducing the amount of keystrokes and uploading a resume or checking in on candidates throughout the interview stage process, and not making it as clunky or noisy with each page.

I feel there is a steeper learning curve with using iCIMS Recruit, and at the time, their company resource and field guides on how to do specific workflows seemed vague, which could cause problems for new recruiters, coordinators, and hiring managers who may need significant training to become comfortable with the platform over time. The user interface felt dated and outdated, and the interface has not evolved as quickly as newer ATS competitors.

Making the user experience simplified would be one thing that could improve iCIMS Recruit.

I have been working in my current field for seven years.

iCIMS Recruit was not unstable in my experience; I never had issues with downtime or crashes.

We used iCIMS Recruit at Uber, so it seemed to handle large amounts of data or users effectively, as Uber was a large company at the time.

iCIMS Recruit was the first applicant tracking system that I used during my career.

I am sure my team evaluated other options before choosing iCIMS Recruit; I was an entry-level employee and it was already implemented within the company, so I am sure they did their due diligence, but I am not sure which other competitors they evaluated.

In today's market, comparable to other competitors such as Ashby and Greenhouse, I would say Ashby is a 10, and if I were to compare that to iCIMS Recruit, I would say iCIMS Recruit is probably a one.

My advice to others looking into using iCIMS Recruit is to be patient with the platform. I have given this review a rating of one.

My main use case for iCIMS Recruit is to source candidates as well as work them through onboarding.

It was easier to deliver that report to my managers without connecting with them through any different communication app.
