Game changing tool that has streamlined our hiring process

Reviewed on 2022/10/18

Pros

Wamly saves our executive team valuable time! We are able to get through candidate screening more effective and efficiently.

Cons

The software is improving and evolving. The mobile experience was clunky in the past, but had a major refresh recently.

Response from Wamly

Hi! Thanks so much for the review. We are so happy to hear that your mobile experience has levelled up.

I'm really happy with this tool and I don't think I'll ever screen candidates again in future without using it.

Pros

I really like that I get a better sense of who these candidates are based on their video responses to questions. Before using Wamly I would think someone looked great (based on their CV) but in-person I would be disappointed. Wamly 100% solves this problem for me.

Cons

I would like to be able to stay on one question and cycle through answers from each candidate. I also think candidates need more help or training to record better video interviews, some of their recordings were really disappointing (even though this isn't a direct fault of Wamly).

Alternatives Considered

Spark Hire

Reasons for Switching to Wamly

As a South African I wanted to work with a local supplier. Also, their pricing was more appealing to my needs as a business owner.

Pause/Resume your interview reviews

Reviewed on 2022/10/27

The software is surprisingly easy to use.

The software is surprisingly easy to use.

Pros

This software enables me to review candidates at a time that is convenient to me during my busy schedule. I can for example half-way through a review, get interrupted by other work and later continue where I last left off. Something that was not possible with a live interview.

Cons

Not the software's fault, but unfortunately you need to structure your questions in such a way that the candidate would have no ambiguity about what you are asking because the candidate cannot ask a question back or confirm his/her understanding about the question/task.

Response from Wamly

Hi Caspar. Thanks so much for the review. We appreciate your honest feedback. We absolutely back having your questions make sense, we have a team of Account Managers that are able to assist you with whatever you need in that regard. Please reach out to us if you are keen to explore this more.

Overall, I received great service from everyone at Wamly. I did have one problem. When my free trial expired, I had to select an option to continue. After looking at the packages available I could not negotiate the premium package with my boss. The other packages had limited features and were not going to meet my needs. I also found it difficult to get my candidates to do a video interview. A lot of them had issues being recorded and saw the platform as a last resort. "If all else fails, I will do a video". My clients were all aboard and loved the idea, but the lack of enthusiasm from candidates, made the project fail.

Pros

The platform was really easy to use. It is a great concept. It has a lot of potential and will be highly successful in internal recruitment.

Cons

The fact that candidates could not redo their videos. In an agency we are trying to sell our candidates to a client and therefor need them to be comfortable, relaxed and able to redo their video. Being recorded does not come naturally to everyone. Some great candidates would have lost out on opportunities, purely because they looked awkward on their video. It is a lot of management to continuously look at all the videos and reset the terrible ones, and then asking them to redo it. I would also like them to be able to watch their video at the end and be happy with their submission.

Response from Wamly

Hi Marizaan! Thanks so much for your review. We try to keep the responses as authentic as possible and thus we do not allow candidates to redo their interviews (which is very much the same in a in-person interview where you would not be able to redo your answer) but we absolutely back that there is something to unpack regarding how we help set-up the candidates to win and feel comfortable with the one-way interview.

In terms of the subscriptions/packages offered, please reach out to us directly, we would love to have a conversation with you and see if we can help.

My overall experience with Wamly can be summarized as a simple yet complexed system that makes you feel adequate in carrying out your recruiting activities. Successful recruiting is possible in a simpler manner that saves time.

Pros

Innovation never stops at Wamly. there are continuous improvements of the system regularly.

Cons

I really can not say there is something I did not like. I would rather say, we should have a more user online feature if less licenses is available. When I need to work on system and Im inactive to allow another it is a problem on time constraint.

Such a valuable tool for any HR manager or entrepreneur. It has completely changed the game for us.

Pros

Wamly is super easy to use and took our hiring process from 3 months to a week. We eventually started giving up CVs and are now just screening candidates through Wamly by using their great filtering tools. What I also really enjoy about Wamly is the very comprehensive rating system where users can give input without seeing comments from other users.

Cons

When I started using it, there were a couple of features that I wished it had but it has since all been included - the Wamly team is really listening to their customers.

Thanks for the response Marnus. Great having you as a client and we appreciate your ongoing support.
