### "The  Evolution of a Great Talent Sourcing Tool" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *23 March 2020* | Defense & Space | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SeekOut is a product that has done their background research on what the talent acquisition marketplace needed.  They listened and made the improvements the market requested.  Now as the organization has evolved, SeekOut is not anticipating and leading in innovation in this key software segment.   Specifically, what I like about SeekOut is the ability to aggregate data from Linkedin Public Profiles with other social sites like GitHub.  I am particularly enjoying the SeekOut expert and other features that facilitate original research on target talent.
> 
> **Cons**: I am skeptical about the ability of AI-based on the limited information contained on a LinkedIn public profile to be robust enough to really make a positive impact.  The beauty of AI is its ability to process big data and make recommendations based on parsing lots of information.  Also, I find there are about 15-20% fewer people with public LinkedIn profiles that are found on LinkedIn's own platforms.  Finding a way to add those missing profiles would be an added addition.  Finally, increasing the number of home email addresses fro the target talent is an ongoing challenge.  While improvements are made, this might be an area where AI can shine.
> 
> I have used SeekOut as a tool to augment information about target talent audiences.  SeekOut's ability to aggregate social data has been a game-changer.  SeekOut Expert has been a valuable addition to its offering.  SeekOut insights have been valuable in terms of visualizing information that illustrates trends that TA leadership values.  Finally, SeekOut's ability to integrate with our CRM has been extremely valuable.

### "candidate response" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *19 February 2021* | Wireless | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: pros: good secondary sourcing tool . easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: candidate response is 0.   Seek out can be a secondary sourcing tool but it cannot be a primary sourcing tool .

### "SeekOut Basic Review" — 4.0/5

> **Russ** | *17 March 2020* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There are several features that the basic version has that we find very useful:&#10;- Filters for searches &#10;- Ability to exclude/include companies, titles, skills in searching&#10;- search down to the city area level&#10;- Being able to quickly create projects for searches &#10;- Finding contact information (personal emails, some ph \#'s and even work emails)&#10;- The AI Recommendation of candidates once a project has been established. Great source of additional candidates possbilities.
> 
> **Cons**: It doesn't integrate with ATS's ... at least not at the basic user level. It does allow for CMS file creation but has a limited \# of pre-mapped tables you can use with other tools (11 in total). This could definitely be improved. Also, direct integration would be an improvement where you could send candidates into your ATS directly without downloading. &#10;&#10;There seems to be a growing number of outdated profiles in the system. SeekOuts database needs to be updated more often.
> 
> SeekOut has provided our company with a great source of candidates and direct contact information and is a good tool for creating and maintaining talent pools. I've used it to support a client in their contract staffing needs (IT Consulting Co.) very well.

### "SeekOut is awesome for technical searches" — 5.0/5

> **Melisa** | *25 October 2021* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Search algorithm accurately identifies more candidates than other software we've used
> 
> **Cons**: Resume search from internet; this only really enables us to import LinkedIn profiles vs. resumes from personal websites, etc.  Also, getting from the project to the campaign is clunky - I wish you could add to the campaigns like you can to the projects.
> 
> Phenomenal software, very easy to use, great algorithms for tough searches
