Human Resources Recruiter at a wholesaler/distributor with 201-500 employees
User friendly with good features and offers very flexible packages for small to medium-sized companies
The job listings are the most valuable aspect of the solution. We don't do much reporting out of it, however, we do do it mainly for the source data to understand where our applicants are coming from. Applicants list the source when they apply for the job. That's really the only thing that we use for reporting - the source data. We pull that on a quarterly basis. Otherwise, it's really just the job postings and then viewing the application, screening them out, moving them throughout the hiring process with the different statuses, and then the pre-employment screening, which is done through ProScreening. The product has a very good flow. The solution is really user-friendly and is just super easy. The application takes five minutes or less than 10 minutes. The process is super smooth. The product has a good set of features. Everything you expect to need, they seem to have.

New hiring process has become faster and identifies skilled developers effectively
The best features CodeSignal Interview offers include providing challenging code problems to enhance problem-solving skills, helping track problem-solving performance, and connecting different developers. It has an easy-to-use and clean UI/UX. Preparing for the interview process and getting ready for famous company interviews is easy. Live coding tests and pair coding are great features. There are also multiple language options, ensuring that language is not a barrier. CodeSignal Interview has positively impacted my organization as it helped me learn this job. It was a very nice tool that I used to enhance my skills. It also provides a better way to hire since we, as HR, save a lot of time. It serves as a better way to learn and practice effectively. CodeSignal Interview has a positive return on investment on our objectives as it helps to source out the right talents to fit into a position with no need for vigorous orientation or retraining, hence saving a lot of time. Approximately 60% of our time is saved when we are recruiting the right hires.

"It could be easier to remove applicants in bulk."
"There were times when we wanted to post confidential positions. For that, I had to contact ApplicantPro to ask about how to do that."
"In terms of extra features, I would suggest a general human resources information system where I could actually enter information about those we hired, including the benefits information, and have the benefits information linked to the benefit vendor websites, like for medical, dental, and vision."
