What Do Reviewers Say?

Ashby
However, given the power of Ashby’s platform, some customers note that the UX can be confusing for hiring managers, that the system is not as intuitive as some other ATS options, and that there is a learning curve to the system.
Further, Ashby’s high volume of customization often means even basic workflows can require more clicks than average, slowing down smaller teams or people seeking user-friendly solutions that promote collaboration.

The Spark Hire Difference
Spark Hire has helped recruiters and talent acquisition teams across thousands of people-powered organizations through each stage of their hiring process.
“Spark Hire’s Predictive Talent Assessment really hones in on candidates’ intrinsic abilities and helps us understand who is the best candidate for the position that we’re filling.”
“We’ve had a great deal of success in helping organizations recruit sales talent and navigate talent audits with Spark Hire’s Predictive Talent Assessment.”
“From the start, everyone on our team was really on board and excited to try out Spark Hire. It’s great for positions where you have multiple openings and a pretty refined process. Spark Hire let us see the candidates in their element and added some personality to a typically static resume. We couldn’t have made these hires had it not been for the video interview process. It was so easy to get started with and we enjoyed using it.”
