Hired Partner, Workable: An ATS to Find & Hire Better Candidates, Faster

Welcome to our spotlight series! Mind kicking things off with an introduction?

Glad to be a part of this! A quick bio on myself: I’m Trevor Schueren and I oversee our technology partnerships and partnership integrations here at Workable. That includes everything from working with prospective partners on their integration builds, to working with existing partners, like Hired, to make sure we’re providing a great end user experience for folks using our shared integration. 

For a 30,000 foot view on Workable, we’re an ATS that helps companies find, evaluate, and hire better candidates, faster (and a G2 category leader!).

Workable just celebrated its 10th birthday! Tell us how Workable has managed to stand out all these years.   

Traditionally, when you think of enterprise grade technology, you often think of software with a ton of bells and whistles only the largest of companies can truly afford. The word “legacy” may even come to mind. With SMBs making up the majority of businesses globally, we felt like this left the bulk of employers on the outside looking in. It was this desire to provide everyone with that same caliber of software that ultimately led Workable to where we are today. 

We do this via one-click posting to 200+ job sites, AI-powered sourcing, employee referrals, and more. You’ll reach those best-fit candidates actively looking for work, those who may not be looking, and even those your other successful hires already know.

I’d say what we’re all most proud of here at Workable, and the reason we come to work everyday, is we’ve helped 27,000+ companies hire over 1.5 million employees around the world.

1.5 million?! That’s incredible! How does Hired help with this effort to get more and more hiring teams connected with top candidates?

Many of our customers are tech-forward companies and looking to hire Software Engineers, DevOps, Design, Product Managers, etc – essentially all of the roles that Hired specializes in. Through our integration with Hired, hiring teams can use the Hired marketplace to match with the perfect candidate and seamlessly send them straight into Workable to be managed in the hiring pipeline and (hopefully) receive an offer.

Love the collaborative spirit. What else is Workable focused on right now?

Great question. It’s been a busy start to the year for us. 

Workable’s has a few big areas of focus for 2024 – AI, reporting, and our HRIS. Through which, Workable is now an all-in-one HR solution offering applicant tracking, onboarding, employee management, payroll integrations, performance management (coming soon), and time tracking (coming soon). 

Workable is building AI tools with all the knowledge of having seen over 1.5 million hires. Our AI has access to proprietary and metadata across our HR Software, and job board – meaning more specific prompts for the AI, and finally, customized outputs and relevant insights for recruiters and hiring managers. Some of our AI tools include:

• AI-Generated Job Descriptions
• AI Recruiter for Instant Sourcing
• Interview Question Generation
• Email Assistance
• Profile Summarization (coming soon)

Lastly, we’re adding increased functionality around reporting to allow our customers more control over the reports they can generate in Workable. 

Thanks for giving us some insight into those fabulous initiatives. Any closing thoughts?
