Dave: Hi, I'm Dave, I'm a CEO and I give GoHire a five out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. We tried all of the usual suspects, essentially, we've posted jobs on LinkedIn, Zip Recruiter, Indeed. Basically everywhere that you can post jobs, all of the companies that you would've heard of, we've tried, we've used, and we sort of found, universally, the same problem. It was really, really expensive. We'd spend thousands of dollars to promote one job. And sort of the quality of the candidates that we got were not great. And there was limited controls to filter sort of who our job was shown to. So we would get applicants that are not qualified, and it created a lot of administrative burden, sort of just sorting through that as well. So those were sort of the main problems we faced with sort of all of the traditional platforms. But with GoHire, the difference was, essentially, there wasn't a per job, per length of job fee. They have sort of one low monthly fee that you pay. And that gives you the entire applicant tracking system, including job postings. And I was a little skeptical at first, honestly, because it seemed a bit too good to be true, versus how much it cost, versus how much we were paying. But once we rolled it out and started using it, it was just better than all of the options that we had tried by like head and shoulders, like leaps and bounds better. We were getting the same amount of applicants, still some unqualified but nowhere near the same volume as before. And instead of having to pay thousands of dollars to promote a single position, we're paying like a hundred bucks a month or something like that. So it was just hands down, way better. So getting up and running with GoHire was super easy. There wasn't a lot of setup to do. And the setup that there was, was very easy. Probably the most complicated thing was setting up a CNAME so that when people visited it, it would be jobs.our company name.com, versus a GoHire domain. But we're a technical company so that was pretty easy for us. Everything else was just setting a couple configurations, uploading a logo file, and then we were good to go and, and could start advertising right away. If you're like us and you're sort of a midsize company, 20 to 50 employees, I think GoHire is absolutely going to be the right solution for you. If you're working a very large company, hundreds of employees, maybe it might not work as well for you as it has for us. But absolutely in that range, you're going to save a ton of money, you're going to get great candidates and a lot less sort of unqualified candidates for your roles. So couldn't recommend it more for an organization of that size.
