ICIMS

I have been using iCIMS Recruit for over five years. I utilize iCIMS Recruit for onboarding processes and the recruitment processes to attract the best talent in the industry. I post the positions available and then oversee the system to evaluate the candidate experience and review all the applications that come through for each position, outline the specifications for the requirements of each role, and conduct the onboarding process in order to hire the talent in a timely fashion.

iCIMS Recruit is a very thorough service that requires you to follow a step-by-step process, but it is very user-friendly and helps you be consistent with the recruitment process.

I was part of the recruiting team and we used iCIMS Recruit primarily for applicant viewing.

Whenever an applicant applied to a role, the application landed in our iCIMS Recruit account. I would go to a specific role and then look at the candidate applications. There were a bunch of filters I used at that time. Typically, the ones that met our requirements would move forward to our internal applicant tracking system. The ones that did not would get rejected through iCIMS Recruit.

This was primarily the reason why we used iCIMS Recruit in our workflow.

The good features of iCIMS Recruit were that it was very easy to use. If I had to pick up an ATS and start using it without knowing anything about it, iCIMS Recruit would be one of them. It was pretty easy to use, user-friendly, and easy to learn.

The layout and navigation of iCIMS Recruit were straightforward. When I was using iCIMS, it was with very basic, simple, limited features. I did not invest in a lot of training. I was not given official training by anybody, but when you go on iCIMS Recruit, the tabs are fairly straightforward and you know what to do from there.

iCIMS Recruit made the overall workflow and integrations for different systems very easy and seamless.

With the changing times and the new applicant tracking systems in the market, there is a lot more that can be added now.

There is so much that can be done with iCIMS Recruit. iCIMS Recruit was easy to use, but it did not have all the features to shortlist candidates. For example, if I received 1,000 applications for a role, it was almost impossible for me to narrow it down to the candidates that were in a specific geographic location or had specific skills. Applicant screening was very difficult sometimes simply because there was absolutely no way to create filters or sorting or run keyword searches.

I think this is a very basic feature that when you review an applicant in iCIMS Recruit, you should be able to run a filter on all the applicants that applied, and those were completely missing.

As I mentioned, it was challenging to shortlist candidates based on what I saw on iCIMS Recruit. Eventually, the company moved away from iCIMS Recruit simply because it did not provide all the options to filter, keyword search, or navigate applicants. There were typically a lot of candidates that used to apply. It was painful for a recruiter to go through all the applicants one by one.

I used iCIMS Recruit for about five years, approximately five years ago.

iCIMS Recruit is stable in my experience, but it used to have a lot of slow loading pages. It took a while to load a page. However, once the page loaded, it was fairly stable.

That was fairly fine with iCIMS Recruit. It is a system that runs searches for you and brings candidates to you. I do not have any doubts about its ability to be accurate or reliable. I do not know if there are recent AI integrations that have happened.

The customer support for iCIMS Recruit was okay.

The company had been using iCIMS Recruit for a very long time before I joined.

I was not involved in the decision making when iCIMS Recruit was chosen. It was long before I joined the company.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for iCIMS Recruit was somewhere in between.

I am pretty sure the company was not saving a lot of money with iCIMS Recruit. The company actually transitioned to creating an applicant tracking system at their end. Eventually, the company created one in-house. There was not too much money savings that were driven with that.

Those who want to buy iCIMS Recruit as a solution must certainly look into the AI capabilities and how iCIMS Recruit is building up in terms of advancement within the AI space. It should have been more updated by now.

I hope iCIMS Recruit is up to speed with the market dynamics. It was lacking innovation during the days I used it. There are so many comparable and very competitive products available in the market. If they are trying to up their brand value, this is the time where they should really invest in building those technical capabilities that are out in the market right now. My overall rating for iCIMS Recruit is 3.5 out of 5.

I follow up on recruitment requisitions and managers provide me feedback on open positions. For example, I had to provide training to managers transitioning from Workday to the new ATS, iCIMS Recruit. I showed them how to open a requisition, provide feedback, and leave comments in the platform.

I use iCIMS Recruit for posting positions, connecting with LinkedIn and other job boards, and following up with candidates until I finish and close the requisition.

I only use iCIMS Recruit for recruitment. I am responsible for ensuring that data governance is in place and updated. I provide follow-up the same day and verify that everything is functioning properly. For example, when I upload a job description, I ensure it displays correctly on LinkedIn or Indeed. I must be aware of everything that happens on iCIMS Recruit.

I love the feedback feature in iCIMS Recruit and that managers are aware of everything happening in the platform. The only challenge is that it can be difficult to make managers aware that they need to follow positions in the platform and learn how to use it so we can work together.

In iCIMS Recruit, one of the features we use is that managers must leave feedback, and if they don't provide feedback on a candidate, we cannot advance with that candidate. This helps us maintain visibility of who is passing all interviews and who is not.

iCIMS Recruit has impacted my organization positively because it is easier to use and more user-friendly than alternatives. It helps us maintain better data governance without many issues. With Workday, data management is very complicated. If you make a mistake in one step, you have to repeat the entire operation. With iCIMS Recruit, you do not encounter this problem.

Processes are faster with iCIMS Recruit. My KPIs include time to fill, data governance, follow-up with candidates who don't continue in the process, and how we progress candidates through the pipeline. iCIMS Recruit helps a lot and saves us time.

I feel that clearer instructions would be helpful because sometimes we have to download all information for the managers, and managers are often very basic users. Something easier to share would be beneficial.

I feel that if iCIMS Recruit provided more training, such as two to four trainings a month, to stay updated with the platform and changes that the engineers make, that would be helpful. More straightforward ways to complete processes would also be great.

I have been using iCIMS Recruit for one year.

iCIMS Recruit is stable.

The customer support for iCIMS Recruit is very good. One time I was offline and could not log in to my account in iCIMS Recruit, and I had to call customer service. They were very helpful and assisted me with everything I needed so I could enter and log in again to my account.

Before choosing iCIMS Recruit, I evaluated other options such as Lever.

My advice to others looking into using iCIMS Recruit is that they must have patience. It is a new tool, and always review the instructions. When you understand how iCIMS Recruit works, it becomes very easy.

The organization was considering hiring Lever, but ultimately stayed with iCIMS Recruit. I am very happy with the outcome of iCIMS Recruit, and I give this review an overall rating of nine out of ten. Thank you very much.

My main use case for iCIMS Recruit is as an applicant tracking system where I review candidates, disposition candidates, and set up candidate screening, which may be virtual or in person. I create offer letters in iCIMS Recruit, create bonus forms, create text message responses, create Calendly messages, and fully utilize it as an ATS system.

iCIMS Recruit is a user-friendly applicant tracking system overall. When integrated correctly within an organization, recruiters find it intuitive and easy to pick up. It allows them to maintain record-keeping for candidates through every step of the process. I recommend its usage on a recruiting team. In my everyday usage, I use it solely in the recruitment process all the way to the offer stage and even to the endpoint of sending the background check form through iCIMS Recruit.

The ability to have a record of every touchpoint with a candidate makes my job easier in iCIMS Recruit. In recruiting, it can be easy to miss a step while moving through the workflow. iCIMS Recruit allows me to look within the candidate's record to see each step and where I am in the process, and it gives me the ability to identify when I haven't pushed a candidate to hiring manager review. This provides a good checkpoint to stop and take a pause.

The best feature that iCIMS Recruit offers is the find candidates function. I use this feature by inputting the title of what I am looking for, the distance the person might live from the particular location, and how long they have been in the system, ranging from seven days up to ninety days. This function helps recruiters find passive candidates who have either been touched previously and are not recalled or have been touched by a previous team member but might still be interested in a new opportunity.

Regarding finding better candidates, it is neutral; the candidate may be out of the job market. However, knowing which candidates in the system I have not explored and want to revisit is a great feature, making it useful overall.

I appreciate that iCIMS Recruit has a robust training setup within the system, and I value how they update me with new trainings that might be coming up to give me a competitive edge on utilizing the system.

iCIMS Recruit has impacted our organization positively through the reporting system. Beyond our leadership using the reporting system to track KPIs and metrics, I as a recruiter can also use the system to track my own KPIs and metrics to see where I stand regarding time to fill, average time to fill, how many hires I have had within a certain period of time, whether that is three months, six months, or a year. The ability to see these features and download these reports is very helpful.

iCIMS Recruit can be improved by adding additional features related to looking for attrition rate and seeing how many people actually stay within roles, especially for those high-volume roles that have high turnover. I do not recall seeing any features related to attrition rate, but as a recruiter working on roles that tend to have high turnover, seeing where my percentage falls and how I can improve attrition rate through system information that I do not currently have available would be great for a robust recruiting team.

I have been using iCIMS Recruit for about five years in total. I used iCIMS Recruit previously at another job, and then about one year at my current position at Cortland.

I believe that its reliability and output are accurate. I have not run into any triggering errors with iCIMS Recruit. It is user-friendly and straightforward, and if I am well-versed in how to use it, I do not think I will run into too many errors unless it is human error.

The advice that I would give to others using iCIMS Recruit is that it is an ATS system that works well for applicant tracking and workflow process in general. It is easy to navigate, and I think it is beneficial to have an ATS system that is easy to navigate through each workflow. I recommend it.

I found this interview to be straightforward with no recommendations at this time to change anything. I would rate this product an eight out of ten.
