> 
> **Pros**: The connection to mails and all communication.
> 
> **Cons**: That you can't directly send CV's to clients on it or keep candidates in tagged roles and leave them as declined etc to keep track on their profiles what roles they have been sent to etc.
> 
> Good, nice tracking and candidate communication - more client communication would be nice.

### "Great Learning" — 5.0/5

> **Rutu** | *05 June 2026* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: iSmartRecruit provides a user-friendly and efficient ATS platform for managing candidates and recruitment workflows. I liked its resume parsing, candidate tracking, and database management features. The system helps recruiters save time and maintain organized candidate records.
> 
> **Cons**: When parsing resumes, the system does not immediately notify users if a candidate's email address already exists in the database. The duplicate email warning appears only after entering additional details such as Current Employer, Current Designation, and Current Location, which can result in extra manual effort and time being spent on data entry.
> 
> My overall experience with iSmartRecruit has been very positive. During my internship, I am gaining hands-on experience with an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and learning how recruitment processes work in a real-world environment. I work on candidate data management, profile verification, and maintaining recruitment databases.

It helps keep the entire recruitment process organized by managing candidates, job openings, and interview schedules in one place. The platform saves time, makes candidate tracking easier, and improves overall efficiency in the hiring process.
> 
> **Cons**: One thing I liked least about iSmartRecruit was that some features took time to get used to, especially in the beginning. At times, navigating between different sections felt a bit confusing, and a few processes could be made more streamlined to improve the overall user experience.
> 
> Overall, my experience with iSmartRecruit was positive. The platform helped streamline the recruitment process by keeping candidate information, job postings, and interview schedules organized in one place. It was easy to use for most tasks and improved efficiency in managing hiring activities. While there is some scope for improving navigation and certain features, it proved to be a useful tool for day-to-day recruitment operations.
