Thanks for taking the time to leave us a detailed review. We appreciate all the comments and wish you well with your future hiring!
Good product overall but could do with some feature enhancements/changes
Comments: It is useful to have all applications in 1 place and the hiring flow is useful to remind me what stage of the process each applicant is at.
Pros:
The ability to custom the hiring workflow
Cons:
1) Once you reject an applicant it does not automatically navigate back to the specific job page/hiring flow. You are required to press back, it is slow to load (I have high speed internet). When going through hundreds of CVs its time wasting to have to navigate backward again and again. 2) Also, I would like to see more useful information in the summary view of a candidate's application without having to open it. For example, their location, a preview of their opening statement and perhaps the first line of their most recent work experience. This would allow me to reject unsuitable candidates without having to navigate into their CV page. #) The prompt to send a rejection email should be easy to switch on and off and I shouldn't have to select "do not send" candidate a message, or "reason for rejection" for every single rejection. Some applicants are completely unrelated to the role and do not warrant the effort it takes to give an explanation for rejection. Again, we have hundreds to get to.4) Finally, we have numerous rejected applicants reapply again and again. I have to navigate into the applicants CV and go to the "activity" section to confirm this. If they have previously been rejected - based on their email address perhaps - this should be clearly flagged without you having to open their application. Their previous application and date they were rejected should be clearly displayed beside their name

Occupop usage in a Social Care Organisation
Pros:
The over view capacity when it works people apply and when we respond they don't seem to get the notification and sending further documents is not user friendly for them, 9 out of 10 it fails
Cons:
We are not notified and therefore remain unsure as to knowing if the candidate got our response via occupop, we ultimately end up contacting them manually to know for sure.
Alternatives Considered:
Great value for money
Comments: Very good, easy to use and great value for money
Pros:
The ease of using it, and being able to advertise on other websites and link it back to Occupop (using the share option) so that you have all applications in one place and can keep track of where they have come from
Cons:
The formatting in the advert can be a nightmare (you can't just copy an add from work, as it changes sizes / loses bullet points etc).

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review Lauren, we appreciate your feedback. Wishing you continued success with your hiring!
Occupop and me
Comments: The Team [SENSITIVE CONTENT] are fantastic. Always on hand always happy to help, no question is silly and extremely knowledgeable.
Pros:
Easy to advertise, very easy to track and very easy to navigate
Cons:
I don't like how the advertisements look, the font and layout doesn't always look professionally written. I would like the 2 choices when setting up a screen call or Interview in the templates, currently it says Interview. This would be most helpful in showing how busy the recruiter is. Set alerts after a certain period of time the user is sent an alert to say a certain document has not been returned. Connect our company LinkedIn with Occupop - CV to go directly into Occupop. When sending a message CV to the Hiring Manager I would like to be able to send to several hiring managers at the same time. I would like the software to remember the email addresses of external people I would like invited team members list to come up alphabetically not jumbled I would like a test Job Site for users to view new forms/paperwork etc. I have other ideas I believe would be of benefit to new Occupop or potential Occupop purchasers
