Reviews of Lever

Alternatives Considered:
A Game-Changer for Hiring!
Comments: Using Lever has been transformative for our team. It's not just a tool, but a comprehensive solution that has revolutionized our hiring process. From the moment we started using it, we saw a significant improvement in our efficiency. The features are easy to use and cover all of our needs, even addressing needs we didn't know we had! While there's always room for improvement, Lever has truly exceeded our expectations and made a positive impact on our talent team's day-to-day operations.
Pros:
Lever has been a game-changer for us! It’s like a one-stop-shop for all our hiring needs. From job descriptions to candidate data, everything is just a click away. And the best part? It’s got features we didn’t even know we needed until we had them!
Cons:
Well, no system is perfect. If I had to pick, I’d say Lever could do a bit more when it comes to user access customization. It would be super helpful if we could create access profiles for different teams. But who knows, maybe that’s in the cards for a future update!

The Lever Team has created an efficient & user friendly ATS!
Comments: Great customer service. Great support! We were lucky with our implementation specialist, Tom Marino!
Pros:
The ease of reviewing resumes, rating applicants, communication with applicants and internal team members, and the reminders on pending tasks.
Cons:
Scheduling panel interviews. It is somewhat of a challenge in the sense that holding time on panelist calendars before actually scheduling the interview and candidates can be streamlined a little bit further.
Lever is a good entry level product
Pros:
Good entry level product, does the basic job of an ATS.
Cons:
Hard to consolidate candidate profiles. No function on org chart /workforce planning. Requisition approval is too simple, hard to work with finance on budget planning.
Lever implementation & first thoughts upon using the system
Comments: The Implementation process has been great. [sensitive content hidden] has been a lot of help answering all of our questions
Pros:
The interview scheduling capabilities. Being able to reach out to multiple candidates for availability and schedule them seamlessly.
Cons:
Hiring managers seem to be able to schedule an interview and it would be nice to be able to prevent certain users from scheduling interviews. Also I would like to be able to Bold candidate names again after they have already been viewed in the pipeline.
Alternatives Considered:
Lever for the Win!
Comments: Overall switching to Lever has made our TA Team more efficient and we couldn't be happier!
Pros:
Lever is a fantastic ATS and very easy to use. We love use automations to automate some of our manual tasks, it's very easy to set up interviews with Lever's interface. The many integrations help speed up our onboarding process as well! Implementation was a breeze, [sensitive content hidden] was a great implementation manager and was working along side me the whole way.
Cons:
Lever has a feature to book phone screens which is convenient but doesn't let you add buffer time between calls. I'm hoping they add this feature in a recent update.
