Great recruiting platform
What do you like best about the product?
iCIMS is an excellent recruiting platform. We moved from a very manual applicant tracking system, so iCIMS was a refreshing upgrade. It's mobile optimized, has strong reporting capabilities, and is very user friendly both for the company and candidates. We appreciate the partnerships and information we are provided from iCIMS. The support is also great. They are responsive and knowledgeable.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much I dislike. When I'm creating reports, because you can report on any information in the system, it can take a while to find the right data to build the report.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
iCIMS has allowed us strong reporting capabilities, a better candidate experience, and more efficient hiring process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
iCIMS has a lot of capabilities. Our account manager and technical team have been great resources. If you are having an issue or can't figure out how to fit something in your process or improve it, they are a great resource to tell you the capabilities of the system and offer suggestions.

Choose this as your ATS at least, I used it at another company previously and was happy when my current company choose it
Great tool for data-driven hiring decisions
What do you like best about the product?
Working with engineers and scientists requires bringing data to decisions and SkillSurvey does just that!
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there were more life science-specific job surveys such as Biomedical Engineer, CMC, Project Manager, Clinical Affairs, Regulatory Affairs, etc. Also, I dislike the fact that I only get one notification to finalize a person and not another when other references are received.

Side by side comparison tool gives us a great view of two great candidates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Provide the Manager Hiring Guide along with the survey results
Candid Feedback
What do you like best about the product?
The best parts of SkillSurvey are the ease of sending a text and email too obtain the references and being able to read actual candid feedback from former managers and colleagues. We also appreciate that it integrates directly into our ATS.
What do you dislike about the product?
Downside would be not being able to ask follow up questions or making sure 100% of the questions make sense for our particular role. But all in all, we love the product and so do our clients. The areas of improvement sometimes get misinterpreted where a reference feels that the MUST answer with something.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving the time of having to reach out and hear back from references.

consistently one of our top sources for hires
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is automated so little manual work has to be done. Emails are easy to configure and brand. Customizable questions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see a direct integration with our applicant tracking system and more skills based questions specific to healthcare.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Excellent customizability in questions. Ability to compare references and receive detailed feedback on candidates that are applying for the same position.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Automating the reference process into a quick email survey is essential to keeping our recruitment process short and simple. I love that we can also collect leads for references that also may be interested in working for our company!
Excellent Resource
What do you like best about the product?
I love that i dont need an employee making calls for references. I also love the data that i get on the reference.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. It is a great product. It has met all of my expectations and more
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I get WAY better references using this system than using calls. In my 20+ year career in HR, i denied employement to 3 people due to references. Skill Survey has helped me with well over a hundred hiring decisions and directly caused me NOT to hire someone at least a dozen times.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Buy it. It is well worth the cost. The cost of ONE bad hire is worth more than the annual subscription. Well worth it.
We love SkillSurvey!
What do you like best about the product?
It is quick and easy! There is nothing to it!
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no dislikes. As a matter of fact, I think it does what it needs to do perfectly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I get my time back and don't have to call each reference!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Why pick up the phone and call each reference? This is much better, and it gives you your time back! Not only that, I find people are willing to give more info specific to my candidate if they know it is aggregate date.
Best Reference System Yet

The ease of use for both the front end and back end users of the site.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't one thing I dislike about the Skill Survey platform
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving the ability to get truthful reference reviews from others. Due to the anonymity of the site, we have found candidates that may be a bigger problem for the organization long term and been able to mentor them through though key issue points.
SkillySurvey has been incredibly valuable for my organization in ensuring we hire the best talent.
What do you like best about the product?
References are more likely to give authentic feedback which we leverage prior to final interviews
What do you dislike about the product?
Don't seem to be getting much value from the sourcing tool. We get a lot of candidates, but my recruiting team seems not to be interested in accessing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increase efficiency and effectiveness of checking reference, using predictive analytics and bring this earlier in our hiring process so we can leverage the insights in our final interviews
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Hugely valuable. Has saved us from many bad hires, and when we haven't followed our process of using the tool, we have regretted it in a few cases
