Amazing for initiating genuine conversations!
What do you like best?
Cord helps to reduce our sourcing time and to reduce unnecessary chit-chat. Both parties can state their preferences clearly so exepctations are set early and are made clear. Though there are less people on Cord than Linkedin, Cord has proved vastly more useful due to the nature of the platform.
What do you dislike?
Cord definitley has some catching up to do with LinkedIn or other platforms, which is improving every week with its close to 500+ new candidates. Which, considering cord has only been around a year or two, is quite impressive. The metrics can also prove to be a little bit counter-intuitive, though once you get your head around how they work (which isn't hard to do) then the platform is able to prove how powerful it is.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend for technical recruitment; cord enables you to cut the 'fluff' and chit chat the is associated with engineer recruitment, and truley does make it easier.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Time. We can perform outreach to a candidate, and they can book in a time not 15 minutes later; it's fantastic. After outreach, we get access to their CV and contact details which, again, cuts out a lot of the middle man.
