## Reviews

### "Best ATS I've seen" — 5.0/5

> **Emma** | *13 March 2018* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Hirehive is by far the best recruitment system I've experienced in terms of ease of use. It's clear the team at Hirehive care about the UX from the perspective of both the Candidate and Recruiter, and they are committed to ensuring users have the least amount of clicks to perform tasks, which pleases me\! And best of all is that it is both configurable and customizable at Admin level; something you don't always get with this kind of software, giving me full control over how my hiring managers use the system, and how I categorize my candidate pipeline. At a basic functionality level, it does exactly what a good ATS should do, but there are little extras that make my life much easier so I can get on with the other element of my HR role. Some of my favorite product features include:&#10;&#9;I can move candidates between jobs if I think an applicant is more suited to a different role.&#10;&#9;At a glance, the pipeline is very clear to see per role, so I can clearly see what stage I'm at for each role.&#10;&#9;Quick and easy reporting which means I don't have to do any analysis at my end to gather insights.&#10;&#9;I can respond to candidates via email and HH will track this.&#10;&#9;Quick and easy to make notes on candidates and attach files. This might sound like a standard feature but I've used other systems that haven't supported this.&#10;&#9;I can shortlist with just one or two clicks.&#10;&#9;Setting up interviews is easy and intuitive from an admin perspective and also for the hiring manager.
> 
> **Cons**: There may be some work required to make the mobile version a little easier to navigate - perhaps some bugs here
> 
> The biggest benefit to me as the sole recruiter in my company is the time the platform saves me in terms of communicating with candidates and internally with Hiring Managers. My policy is to respond to every single candidate that applies to us here at CurrencyFair, and Hirehive allows me to do send a personalized email, with the relevant tailored message to each candidate, with only a few clicks.

### "Meat Staff - ALB Global Recruitment" — 4.0/5

> **Angela** | *20 November 2023* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 1- The customer service is very good, promptly responding to our queries, and genuinely dedicated to helping us and solving our difficulties in using Hire Hive.&#10;2- AI-to write job posts.&#10;2- Easy to track and control applications.&#10;3- Possibility to advertise in many places and multilingual.&#10;4- Application Form - good tool&#10;5- Careers page&#10;6- Hiring Team
> 
> **Cons**: 1- Advertisements - My advertisements are not reaching out to the public that I need. 99% of applications are coming from my social media posts. Instagram and Facebbok. I was told that I need to modify my adverts in order to be visible on the jobs board, Indeed, etc.  But I do not know the criteria. Would be good if we had a direction or autocorrection when the system could identify errors that will not be acceptable in Indeed, and other job boards, for example.  In my resume, I would like to write down a job post that would be posted and accepted on multiple and multilingual job platforms at once. We have no time to write a job post and track if it is visible on the job board.&#10;For my type of business. I would like to be able to select the countries I would like to advertise, the language specific for each country, and the region or cities of the country I would like to reach.  Because at the moment, I am sure the adverts are not showing to the public what I need.&#10;&#10;2- Sharing candidate's profile:&#10; I would like to be able to share with my clients a short profile of my candidates besides a copy of their video clips.  &#10;Set up a short profile of the candidates to share specific pieces of information about candidates ( not a full profile). For example show only his first name,  date of birth, marital status, city where he lives, job applied for, functions and skills, years of experience, avoiding full name, and contacts.&#10;&#10;3- Inbox emails: two things:  First: Responding to emails through my email account, it does not show in the Hire Hive platform. There was a lack of information when many emails were exchanged. &#10;Second: I would like to feel safe on deleting an email in my email account so that it would not be deleted on Hire Hive. Because I prefer to have everything in control through Hire-Hive.
> 
> I believe the experience with HireHive is good so far.&#10;I would like to be able to manage HireHive through my mobile phone.&#10;Release an App would be very important.&#10;With a few improvements in the platform, I believe Hire Hive will be the best choice for candidate tracking and recruitment management for my business.&#10;Thank you for your support so far, Kevin.&#10;I really appreciate it.

### "Evaluation" — 3.0/5

> **Angelika** | *17 November 2023* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: \*the overview of stages and the sub-status within the status&#10;\*GDPR is covers and anonymity automatized&#10;\*different user rights and setting - this is great and really flexible\!&#10;\*look and feel of job list (this covers our Corporate Branding Identity)&#10;\*filter possibilities of job list &#10;\*the notes section and that you can now have a layout&#10;\*the notification possibility in the note section
> 
> **Cons**: \*reporting, facts and figures&#10;\*no Corporate Identity in e-Mails (wish look and feel set up functions like in Outlook Mails (Font size, color, font type, bulleted lists in CI design....) &#10;at the moment it looks unprofessional&#10;\*no attachments on default basis&#10;\*it does not show how old an application is ("applied 14 days ago.. would be cool to see that)&#10;\*the history does not show the complete history (sent e-Mail, made a commend, ... this is missing)
> 
> within the last two years I witnessed several improvements. Appreciate. In order that I highly can recommend it you need to work on the "cons", especially reporting :-)

### "Great Experience - both for candidates, and for our recruiting team" — 5.0/5

> **Mikey** | *20 May 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: - Really great interface and UI: very clean looking, easy to visually navigate, friendly enough for anybody to jump into a recruiting team or into a specific requisition and clearly know exactly what's going on.&#10;- Strong customization: you can create templates for emails scalable across your entire team or private to yourself, with variables such as candidate name / job title that make it easy to process applications without much manual input. Can schedule out emails to send in the future. Can customize specific 'buckets' to move candidates through within each requisition. Can create custom tags that stick to applicants. I've almost never run into a situation where I've felt like, "wow I wish I could do that\!" as almost everything can be adjusted/customized.&#10;- Sharing friendly: can easily add people not in the system into interview invites, share profiles and resumes with them, etc. and for teammembers in the system it's even better - copy/pasting URLs work for sharing, plus a tagging system.&#10;- Support: the Hirehive team is readily available for support and resolving any issues that arise - quickly too typically. Very open to our feedback and have implemented things we've suggested.&#10;- Easy candidate experience: applications are EASY to submit\! one page lists the entire application - candidate's don't need to re-type their whole resume like in some systems, customizable questions. Helps capture talent and avoid losing them to a frustrating application.
> 
> **Cons**: - Emails sent through Hirehive come across as a random combination of numbers and letters as the email address. This routes everything through Hirehive which is great for tracking, but can be confusing to candidates who don't understand they can reply to the email, or just end up in spam.&#10;- Candidates can re-apply to the same role repeatedly.
> 
> I've really enjoyed using Hirehive as an individual contributor. It's got a great user experience on the recruiter side while also creating a strong candidate experience. The interface is intuitive and easy to understand, with strong customization options in almost every area of the platform so the entire system can be set it up for how your team best operates. At the individual level too, customization options allow you to work as you do best - I can create my own private email templates, etc. On the candidate side, a simple process to submit an application is important when considering capturing talent. The Hirehive team has reliably provided support, updates, resolved any bugs quickly, and has been very receptive to feedback from our team.
