Categories & Use Cases

Helpful Tool for a Growing Organization

Pros

  • Vettery provides quality candidates for open opportunities.
  • Vettery provides a hands-on support team that establishes a strong relationship with Recruiters and Hiring Managers.
  • Vettery has established auto-responders to ensure candidates are moving through the pipeline effectively.

Cons

  • Their 'Connie' tool can be a bit invasive. Sometimes Recruiters go at a really fast pace and don't always use the Vettery email to ensure candidates are scheduled but the Connie tool will message you asking you to set up meetings even after they're on the calendar.

Return on Investment

  • We've made several hires from the Vettery tool who were quality candidates and are still with us.
  • We've been able to move quickly, reducing our time to fill with a tool like Vettery.
  • We've received insights in regards to the candidates from their Talent Manager which has been helpful to understand who we're meeting with.
