Key Takeaways

Generated from the text of customer reviews

NEOGOV serves as a public sector HR and is used by teams in government agencies, public safety, and education. Users have praised its compliance checklists and integrated job boards. However, organizing extra job application questions and managing advanced customization can be challenging for some users. NEOGOV has recently acquired Miller Mendel Inc., that would add eSOPH background investigation system and Vetting AI solution for improving background checks in public sector hiring.

Our Verdict

We believe NEOGOV is a good fit for mid-to-large government agencies and public education institutions. With its public-sector focus, built-in compliance, and proprietary applicant flows, it may be worth the premium for organizations with high-volume, regulated hiring needs. We recommend it to any public entity for which applicant analysis and reporting, records of retention and mandated compliance outweigh general HR flexibility.
