Panashe B.: Hello. My name is Panashe. I'm the IT specialist for [inaudible 00:00:04] Solutions, and I rate ZipRecruiter five stars out of five stars. In addition to ZipRecruiter, I have tried out Indeed, I've tried FlexJobs, and, of course, [inaudible 00:00:19] Solutions. And I think they're good compared to ZipRecruiter. I put them at the same level. I chose ZipRecruiter because a friend of mine recommended it and I found it easier to use compared to the others. Setting up the ZipRecruiter account wasn't hard because it can link with our social, and when it comes to doing the recruitment and all, it's easier to get the job that you need and all. So, yeah, I guess it was pretty easy for someone who is tech savvy. [inaudible 00:01:00] might consider using ZipRecruiter. I would advise them to keep an eye out on the emails because you can get a lot of emails.
