"Ceipal Review"

I've been a Healthcare Recruiter for 5 years and have used Ceipal for the last 3 years. The understanding of Ceipal is the best. We didn't need any additional training to navigate our work process. It took less than 2 days to get proficient in 75% of its uses. The reporting management may take some time to master but the rest of it is super easy! Apart from this, Ceipal is very easy when it comes to posting new jobs, mail merge, and even uploading bulk resumes. I've used Jobdiva, Bullhorn, and Taleo as well, but Ceipal is the best so far.

"Ceipal has allowed our team to stay organized, stay efficient and move away from spreadsheets"

I like that we can do almost everything start to finish within Ceipal. Being able to contact them for customer support. Being able to but in requests for new features. Integrations with other companies we use. Creating custom reports for both the whole team and also for individuals. Adding those reports to the dashboard for everyone to see and keep them updated with the statues of candidates. Willingness to integrate with new companies. Having that ability is very useful. Work smarter not harder.
