The reporting features make it easy to search far back and filter as needed. It's great that the job postings are automatically posted on external sites such as Indeed and Glassdoor. > > **Cons**: I think the over website could be updated as it seems outdated. It would be also nice for candidates to be able to create a profile so they can apply for multiple positions at a time without having to apply for each separate. > > Great customer service, fast response. ----- ### Review — 5.0/5 > **Patrick** | *17 September 2012* > > Sure there are many options out there but if you are looking for one that flexible to your needs, then stop searching. I've found that when ever I've needed something from The Applicant Manager I was able to get it done. The entire program can be customized to how you want it and makes your processes almost effortless. The designers are quick to respond to any requests you may have and a delight to work with. The Setai is a luxury hotel located in Miami Beach and we quite often have the need to attract the best talent to fill our positions. We recently underwent a change in management and began putting new processes in place. One of the things we had to do was get our recruiting efforts organized immediately. We were using a rigid and non-flexible system in the past and were introduced to The Applicant Manager by one of our consultants. We were allowed a demonstration and took it for a test drive before quickly reaching a decision. Implementation was seamless and linked to our website and social media sites in no time to put us in business. Learning the new system could not have been any easier. After the implementation, tutorials were provided but it did not take long before were were comfortable using The Applicant Manager and well on our way to filling our vacant positions. Now quite honestly, I would rather use my time doing other things than screening and tracking my applicants. With The Applicant Manager, I am able to set my thresholds and ask the questions to get exactly what I am looking for. Getting status updates or inquiries on which stage of the recruiting process for an applicant is child's play and rejections are effortless. Best of all the applicants are presented with a highly professional image of your organization and love that you take the time to reach out to them, they don't realize how easy The Applicant Manager makes it. The Applicant Manager makes me look good at what I do\! ----- ### "TAM is the BEST\!" — 5.0/5 > **Chelsie** | *09 August 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: TAM is so easy to use; it is incredibly user friendly and easy to figure out if you have never used a tracking system. > > **Cons**: Honestly, nothing. Sometimes the "notes" section in the candidate window doesn't work, but that is the only complaint I have. > > TAM has been the perfect way to track candidates and add notes, etc. I love that I can pull up applicants and filter them in an excel spreadsheet. ----- ### "TAM - Software delivers what it promised\!" — 5.0/5 > **Glen** | *13 September 2017* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: \* Overall Value \* Great customer service (email and phone) \* Ease of Use \* Regular software updates \* Not too complicated \* Delivered the capabilities it promised > > **Cons**: \* Wished they had HRIS software too. Some off the workflows are not intuitive to set up (but that happens with all software). > > Would recommend this software for any company that needs a simple, easy to use software. Great for smaller to mid size employers. ----- ### "Pros and Cons for on line applications" — 5.0/5 > **Sandra** | *09 August 2019* | Gambling & Casinos | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Connectivity to my email for new applicants. > > **Cons**: Sometimes the applicants have difficulty navigating the resume and application. The resume will not download, therefore, I cannot view it. > > It has been a useful tool to glean the information I need to make an informed choice of applicants. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/90707/the-applicant-manager?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/90707/the-applicant-manager) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
