Workable free trial FAQs

The Workable free trial will enable you to explore all the Recruiting and HR features available in our Standard plan without the need to post a job right away. 

If you don’t think you’ll publish a job during the 15-day period, if you already post jobs through another system, or if you want to see more of Workable's capabilities, we recommend using sample data. 

• Post a job or explore Workable via sample data
• Use our sourcing tools 
• Review resumes and interact with candidates
• Move candidates through your pipeline and set up phone screens
• Investigate account settings to customize and configure the way that you hire

Check out our complete guide to getting the most out of your trial experience.

Yes! You can utilize Premium tools during your Trial within the following limits:

When you convert to a paid subscription, you will have free limited access to premium tools. 

We’ll always email you if your job can’t be posted. Typically, we review two aspects of your account in order to approve your posts.

• Verification of a credible business presence to prevent fraud
• Adherence to job posting guidelines 

Additionally, there are some edge cases like multi-level marketing jobs or posts that do not offer direct employment (e.g., job fair ad) that cannot be approved. 

Free visibility on Indeed is available only for our paid customers per their policy. Other partner job boards, as well as features like People Search and AI Recruiter, will provide enough candidates for your trial of our services to be successful.

When your trial’s over, you can purchase one of our plans. To discuss alternative invoicing options, click the option to "Request a call" (on the right of your Plan page), and one of our sales team members will contact you.

If Workable doesn't seem like the right tool for you, go ahead and cancel your subscription (at the bottom of your Plan page). After this, candidate data will be kept intact, but they will be in 'read-only' mode. It will not be possible to interact with candidate profiles.

If you don't cancel your plan, your account will be archived automatically after 30 days. You can come back and activate your account at any time.

We understand that sometimes you need a bit more time to make a decision. Contact us and we’ll gladly give you some extra time to evaluate our product.

While you can download individual resumes anytime or export the Candidate Breakdown report, our full data export service is available only to paid customers. 

Feel free to use the trial account as if it were a paid plan. We’re happy to see users adopt our software quickly and easily. We monitor features such as resume uploads, AI Recruiter, or mass email actions to make sure spambots do not abuse them. Keep also in mind that:

• You will be granted 75 People Search views; check more about your views consumption
• To utilize People Search, AI Recruiter, and Referrals, it is required to have at least one published and approved job

If you've started a trial and Workable doesn't seem like the right tool for you, you can downgrade to the free plan or close your account (from the Settings > Plan page). Before you do, don't hesitate to contact us for help or feedback.
