About Gem
Gem is a commercial recruiting platform that pairs a candidate CRM with an applicant tracking system. Recruiters use it to find and reach out to potential candidates, keep track of those relationships over time and then move interested people through a hiring process.
Along with sourcing and pipeline tools, the product emphasizes analytics about the recruiting funnel so teams can see where candidates drop off and how channels perform. The vendor site could not be read when this entry was prepared, so confirm the current module list and integrations on the Gem website. It is categorized here under both HR and CRM.
Gem is proprietary software delivered as a cloud service and sold to in-house recruiting teams, often at technology companies that rely heavily on proactive sourcing.
