User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
Diversity teams use this, and powerfilters are very helpful. When looking for volume, Seek out other terms to find relevant profiles well. For example, it might map other candidates with similar terms at the end of the pool search. Also, the bias reducer filter helps make sure there is less bias towards a hiring manager and the recruiters.

Pros
  • SeekOut highlights diverse talent well. I love that I can filter to view Women in Technology, for example.
  • The platform's UI is easy to use and the integration with LinkedIn is superb.
  • The ability to run messaging campaigns in a quick and easy format saves both time and effort.

Cons
  • Geographical location search (ex: having the filter be 50 miles radius and we are getting candidates in other countries)
  • Not one candidate has been hired in our company using SeekOut
  • Other than providing diversity filters, they do not have set ethnicities for the tech industries like other AI companies do

This platform tends to give you applicants who are not necessarily looking for new opportunities. I have had people be upset that I contacted them or sought them out on LinkedIn. This can be troublesome when the only thing I am trying to do is find qualified applicants. I need active people, who dont mind a cold call

Usability
Using SeekOut is very intuitive. Lots of multi-select boxes, toggle switches, and keyword boxes. If you have any experience with LinkedIn Recruiter, SeekOut is not a far jump in learning how to use it effectively. I will say that adding candidates to projects doesn't necessarily feel like an intuitive process after you've been redirected to LinkedIn to look at a candidate's profile

Support Rating
We have not needed to get in touch with the support team during our time using SeekOut because someone else in our company takes care of that matter. Overall, we have been very satisfied with the ease of use and self-sufficiency of SeekOut and have not found the need to contact the support team.

Online Training
We had an online tarining with all the recruiters. The trainer was very good, and enthusiast as well. He explained everything very detailed, showed how to search which kind of functions are in Seekout. He showed the program by using examples of search. We could ask questions at the end, and he told that we can contact him any time.

Implementation Rating
Once the licenses were purchased we were sent an email to activate our account. From there we had full access to the platform and a training was set up. Since I had used SeekOut previously I understood the dynamics of the platform and was able to use it instantly.

Alternatives Considered
While I have not evaluated any other products similar to SeekOut, I am aware Hireology, Entelo, GEM, and others. We have not gone down the path to review these as for now SekOut has covered most of objectives needed. The information provided for both email and phone, along with diversity settings to search have been very helpful for our team.
