Categories	Hire, Pay & Manage Your Team
STOA Verdict	Lever is best for growing companies in the 20-50 employee range that are hiring regularly and want a clean, modern applicant tracking system. The pipeline view and collaboration tools make it easy for your team to review candidates together, but the pricing is built for mid-size and larger companies, which makes it hard to justify if you're only hiring a few people a year. If you're a very small team doing occasional hiring, simpler and cheaper tools will serve you better.
