SmartRecruiters review
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use SmartRecruiters as our ATS for both US and Barcelona open requisitions. I would say our hiring needs are a bit volatile, and quite dormant in 2023 but we've been able to solely focus on this tool for our applicant tracking needs. I'd say something I'd like to be implemented within the system is to have it a bit more user friendly, and to have a support chat tool to answer any questions I have right at the moment. That would be super helpful.
Pros
- Compliance
- Centralize all applicants and historical data in one solution
- Templates, mass emails
Cons
- User friendly page
- I wish SmartRecruiters could let you reject an applicant from all open requisitions at once
Return on Investment
- N/A on quality of candidates - this more comes from the source. LinkedIn vs Indeed

Best TA Suite out there
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
SmartRecruiters is the only way talent gets into the organisation. It's our way to attract, evaluate, select, and manage all applicants at QuoIntelligence. It's a critical asset here, as we've gone from 4 to 50+ employees.
It was essential in getting our applicant-to-hire ratio to 200:1, with a time to hire of 40 days, and only half a recruiter on it. Through its workflow automations and off-the-shelf integrations we ensure excellent candidate experience, hyper-efficient recruiters, and happy hiring managers. All compliant.

Smart ATS
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use SmartRecruiters as a full applicant tracking system, integrated with PhenomPeople on our front-end careers page. We use it to obtain job hire approvals and post job ads to our careers page and other integrated job boards such as TradeMe, LinkedIn and Seek. We also track external and internal applications, process applications through the hiring process (reviewing screening questions and CVs, phone screening, interviewing, submitting applicant comments and ratings, declining applications, and submitting job offers). Our SmartRecruiters is also integrated with DocuSign, allowing us to generate offer details inside SmartRecruiters, which can then flow through to DocuSign to generate contract paperwork. We utilise back-end reporting as well to track our hire and turnover statistics.
Pros
- Offer template customisations
- Being able to set up multiple different approval chains for jobs and offers
- Applicant tracking
Cons
- Settings page can be difficult to navigate & find what you're looking for
- Job approval chains would be better with additional qualifying fields so that we can segregate different areas of the business better
- The ability to edit an existing offer template in-system would improve the experience, rather than having to edit offline and upload a whole new version.
Return on Investment
- Improvements in time to hire across support office, store and distribution channels.
- Improved user experience for recruitment team and hiring managers
- Improved turnaround time for contract offers, especially with volume (stores)
