Greenhouse Recruiting

Literally useless.

I have to download resumes to view them. Cannot perform any action on the candidate (reject, schedule interview). When I login into greenhouse on phone browser, it sends me back to the useless app where I’m back at square one. Baffled why GH even bothered with mobile app if there is almost zero functionality.

Don’t even bother. The app does absolutely nothing except waste space on your phone. Not even sure why they bothered.

I can look up candidates but that’s about it. Zero action can be taken on the profiles themselves which seems like a wasted development effort. It’s unfinished and I’d rather have nothing than something that doesn’t work.

I love greenhouse, but wish they would staff up and invest in the iOS app just a little more. Application review is totally broken — blank screen that just says “Application Review” twice. (I have full admin privileges in our GH account, so this is not a permissions problem.) I’d be fine if there were only a few basic workflows I could do on iOS … even as limited as app review & reviewing scorecards and moving candidates to new stages. Table-stakes stuff. Please consider investing more in the app!

When we were deciding which ATS to purchase we looked at the app as an added benefit. None of the options we saw were great for recruiters but we have found that the greenhouse app does exactly what we need for hiring managers. There’s also an app for campus events that looks good but I haven’t tried it out yet.

I find this app to lack way too many features in the website. Now, it has become accepted for a mobile app to lack some of the website’s features—but this is too much. I should be able to review applications in the app. Also, consider implementing a document reader (i.e: pdf reader) so I don’t have to download every single resume I review. I am an iOS developer for a major enterprise app, so I know this shouldn’t be difficult to implement. Please tell me you know how to do this, because I could do it in a couple of days.

The app doesn't have most of the functionality, compared to the desktop app. It only shows a list of interviews. No referral links, past interviews, or anything else for that matter. I end up having to use the mobile web app in desktop mode more often that I thought I would when an app is available.

I was on the road and needed to view a past candidate's information and the app will not allow any navigation beyond what is coming up. Zero menu, no ability to go to a main page. I ended up logging in on Safari and then going to Desktop view to get where I needed. This is beyond amateur hour.

If you want to use your phone to move review new candidates in Greenhouse, you’re out of luck. The mobile site only allows you to look at upcoming interviews and scorecards. The app doesn’t allow you to see anything beyond the resume (entirely unhelpful for roles where a portfolio link was submitted) which you have to download to your phone to view. Is the candidate a match? Inappropriate for the role? Doesn’t matter because you can’t reject or move them forward without going to the desktop app. So what’s the point of the mobile app? Seems like you could check in on the status of further in the pipeline candidates, provided all you want to do is see where things are at. This is hugely frustrating and frankly, confusing? It’s 2023 and this company just doesn’t support mobile use for its core functions.
