HR
Velocity5.0

All-in-one recruiting software for hiring teams

Workable turns its report builder on interviews, assessments and video screens.

◆Current state
Workable is a recruiting platform growing a full HR suite around its applicant tracking. This week's releases are about reporting: every number in a report now opens the records behind it, referral reports count AI search and Chrome extension sources, widgets can be resized and viewed on a phone, and Enterprise custom reports gain Events, Assessments and Video interview data. Earlier in November came a reworked candidate profile and separate offer approval and delivery steps.
◆Where it's heading
After October's HR-suite additions and early-November recruiter workflow fixes, Workable is now making its hiring data answerable: who spends time interviewing, where assessments stall, which referral channels work. Most of the reporting depth sits on Enterprise plans, which suggests reporting is being used to pull larger customers up a tier.
◆Prediction
More data sources in the custom report builder are likely, probably for offers and the AI Recruiting Agent's activity, since those are the recent features not yet reportable. Whether any of this reaches non-Enterprise plans is not stated.

◆Recent moves

    New data sources: Events, Assessments and Video interviews

    Enterprise custom reports can now draw on interview events, assessment results and video interview status, so teams can see interviewer load and time from stage entry to interview. It is the fourth reporting release in two days and widens the builder from pipeline counts to the interview process itself.

    Click any number in a report to see the records behind it

    Every count, average or median in a Workable report now opens the candidates or records behind it, with a side panel to act on a profile. It removes the export step recruiters used to check where a number came from.

    Improved visibility for candidate referrals

    The Referral channels report now counts referrals from AI search, the Chrome extension and manual sourcing, not just the portal, and the referred-candidate filter reaches all plans. Referral programs become measurable end to end.

    Flexible report layouts, on any screen

    Report widgets can be resized and placed freely on Enterprise plans, reports work in a phone browser, and tables open full screen. Part of the same reporting overhaul as drill-down.

    A clearer candidate profile

    The candidate profile drops empty tabs, lets recruiters comment and evaluate inline, and gets a timeline with labels, visibility colours and activity filters. It follows the offer approval split as more polish on the core recruiting screens.

    Choose when your offers reach candidates

    Offers now have separate approval and delivery steps: send right after approval, at a scheduled time, or manually, with notifications and reports for approved offers not yet sent, on mobile too. It fits the recent run of controls over when and how candidate communications go out, after Agent emails gained a team-member sender.
