Instead of doing them one by one, we can now do them all in one go Pros They provide templates for creating job descriptions and it a very simple effort to publish them in the portals/ channels that we want. They further help by providing candidates, which also helps Cons The candidates shared are not always relevant. Their pre screen interview questions are quite basic and do not help in really evaluating a candidate's suitability.

It will remain one of my key resources when I'm looking to make a change in my career. If you haven't tried it yet, you absolutely should do so. Pros Ease of use. When you're looking for a job, that's one of my top choices. Very straight forward interface, nothing overwhelming, comparing to some other competitors. I highly recommend this product Cons None really. When you like a product, it's hard to find what you don't like. I didn't have to work with their support team. Sometimes the auto suggested jobs that come up can be far from what I do, but that's fine. Review Source Allison M. Unemployed Research Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "High expectations " December 6, 2019 2.0 I expected something great and received a mass amount of spam information. Pros Very easy to sign up and download on all platforms. When reviewing the software it gives a very promising idea of what results will be achieved. Cons There are far to many spam organizations using this platform! Many serious applicants will ignore all requests and emails from this software because of the increasing amounts of spam information neing sent out.

SAP Software Eng Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zip Review" December 7, 2020 4.0 Pros The Auto Alert seems to be one of the most useful features. Cons API integration needs a little work. Hard to integrate with a private job board. Switched from [Indeed for Employers](https://www.capterra.com/p/161381/Indeed/) is more personable.

I think for general, admin or entry level roles, this might be a better fit.

Pros Very user friendly, and very cost effective, professional software. Cons No, such kind of trial versions as available in other platforms Review Source LM Lisett M. Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy Zip!" April 13, 2023 4.0 Very good experience, always come back and refer Pros The most important thing for somebody trying to find a job is variety, and Zip is very good with that, you can find what you want, what you need and also the unexpected job, you did not know you want, the second thing is security, last thing you want is your personal data in an unsafe website, after that easy navigation and facility to fulfill forms and schedules for interviews is a must Cons So far little help with resumes and ...keep improving Review Source MB Morgan B. Property Manager/Recruiter Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Increase Your Hiring Base Instantly" March 11, 2020 5.0 Because of the limited filtering capabilities I can only rate with a 7. The application pool is very large, but if ninety percent of them are no longer looking for work it's a waste of my time. Pros The information and number of potential applicants is untouched. There is no other program that allows me to find as many job seekers as does. It's quick to learn because the system is very user friendly. Cons I only give this program a 7 due to the limitations it has. While I'm able to access a large pool of job seekers, it's difficult to filter them out. People who were looking for a job 9 months ago are mixed into those who need immediate employment. Review Source Response from ZipRecruiter March 16, 2020 Thank you so very much for your business and feedback. We'd like to help you filter your candidates. We can show you how to use the freshness filter in the resume database, deal-breaker screening questions, and other account settings.

" November 18, 2022 5.0 We use it to for potential new hires Pros It makes recruiting new workers less stressful Cons I have no complaints, Nothing but great things to say. Alternatives considered [Indeed for Employers](https://www.capterra.com/p/161381/Indeed/) Reason for choosing ZipRecruiter Because they are far better then there competition Review Source SB Sasha B. Teacher assistant Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Job Finder " December 8, 2019 5.0 My overall experience here and there. Every site has its hiccups but this site has been a great help to me. Pros I use this as an app on my phone and it has worked wonders. Even on the go I can quickly look for positions. It makes it easier for me to narrow now where I want a job. Cons One of the things that I do not like is that when people reach out to you it’s hard to see which ones are actually wanting to get your resume. Also many positions that do pop up they are positions that I have never done before. Review Source Response from ZipRecruiter December 13, 2019 Hi Sasha, We're so glad you had a positive experience while using ZipRecruiter and that our platform was useful.

Small improvements will make it even better. Pros is easy to access, as it is a web based platform. The dashboard is easy to use and setup to find what you need quickly when looking for potential candidates. We use it 2-3 times per week following up on candidates. Cons I would like it easier to contact potential candidates with an Outlook 365 connector. This will allow me to send emails directly from my account and have copies of the engagement in the system. Allowing templates, appointment setups, and calendar invites much easier to manage.

Cons The supposed AI-powered search algorithm leaves me wanting. I was getting emails multiple times a day for roles completely out of touch with my alerts. It appears the algorithm scans for key words while ignoring functions ie. "account manager" alerts within marketing/advertising also pulled up account manager roles in completely unrelated fields making so many emails completely useless. Review Source Nick T. Initial and secure specialist Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Use zip recruiter for new recruits " February 22, 2023 5.0 My overall experience with zip recruiter has been good. From setting up the listing to getting applicants to screening them to hiring. Pros What i liked about zip recruiter is being able to have candidates "pree screened" before they apply for the job. Having there information easily at hand makes for easier recruitment Cons Sometimes candidates are not honest on there applications and we get ones that don't work out, I wish there was a better vetting process Review Source Rohan B. marketing executive Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "zip Recruiter" August 13, 2019 5.0 is amazing software to easily sort and search for things people expected. Pros it is very helpful software for beginners and experienced professionals as well. The software is very easy to operate. Cons area wise sorting is still difficult to get proper results.

CEO Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Its ok" July 6, 2021 5.0 Its a great career site just needs help with less spam and more replies from employers. Pros I love that it can match you to careers of your choice and also notifies persons of new jobs. It does help locating a business as well. Cons I dislike the fact that it spams my email with tons of email about jobs sometimes farther than what i seached. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Research Librarian Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review for ZipRecruiter" October 13, 2020 5.0 I signed up on to receive updates with job listings by job title. ZipRecruiter has been useful when applying for positions, so that I spend less time searching. It's also convenient when applying, in that it automatically opens to the employer's job listing so that you can apply. Pros I like that you can register to receive emails with job listings by job title and keywords, as opposed to having to visit the website and then search. I also like that when you click to apply for a position, ZipRecruiter automatically takes you to the employer's website so that you can start an application. Cons As is an aggregate job listing site, positions listed are often found on other sites (e.g., LinkedIn, Indeed). Review Source Response from ZipRecruiter October 19, 2020 We aim to make job searching as simple as possible with our profile formulation and 1-click apply! Thank you for the review. --TC Shellie A.

They were all professional and prepared for the interviews. Yay for Zip Recruiter. Pros Very user friendly. This software allowance you to do what you out do best which is run a company if you are a business owner looking to hire a new recruit. They are very thorough in getting the needed info from candidates and they are right on when it comes to qualifications. Cons I honestly do not have anything that I don’t like.

November 21, 2022 4.0 Pros It’s super easy to use and I love how you can easily learn the software within minutes. Cons I really can’t think of any cons, I personally love more than any of their competitors. Switched from [LinkedIn Jobs](https://www.capterra.com/p/172060/LinkedIn-Jobs/) I wasn’t getting the service I needed. Review Source Blake B. Ecommerce & Consumer Products Manager Mining & Metals Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Outsource your recruiting and save yourself time" November 23, 2019 5.0 Great -- we gave them a detailed description of what we were looking for and they delivered the candidates directly to our door. Pros As a manufacturing company, we're facing the same obstacles as everybody else in America right now -- finding and recruiting quality candidates. saved us a ton of time and just delivered candidates to our doorstep. We went from sifting through resumes to training and producing. Cons Not much! Maybe that the free trial wasn't longer, but that's an easy thing to gripe about :). Would recommend and use again in different companies. Alternatives considered [Indeed for Employers](https://www.capterra.com/p/161381/Indeed/) Reason for choosing ZipRecruiter We were hoping to offload our work. We're a manufacturing company by specialty, not a recruitment company. Leave that to the pros like . Switched from [Indeed for Employers](https://www.capterra.com/p/161381/Indeed/) We didn't want to sift through hundreds of applications anymore and hoped to outsource the work.

Pros I've gotten a number of good candidates from Zip Recruiter Cons Sometimes they seem to match candidates at random, or with no regard for the job posting. Ex. a chef's resume sent in for a quant analyst role. Reason for choosing ZipRecruiter I didn't - I use a lot of different tools to get resumes. Review Source Jamie S. Talent Acquisition Specialist Outsourcing/Offshoring Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Life-saver! " October 3, 2019 5.0 Placing candidates is not easy but with , candidates are able to apply directly and recruiters can discover great talent at their fingertips. Pros is also one of my favorite tooks as it allows me to receive ample amoung of leads for a specific role. You can make specific taggings for each lead that you review. It also allows you to download the resume of interested applicants. Cons Nothing. This has always been an amazing tool to use. I always check and I am extremely satisfied with the leads fhat we are getting.

Pros Easy to use Good User Interface Large Pool of Candidates Diverse Talents from Entry Level up to C Level Cons Most of it's talents are from US alone No talent pooling feature (create project etc) CVs are out of date Reason for choosing ZipRecruiter Value for money Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Research Associate Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Incredible Place to Start your Job Search" October 29, 2018 5.0 Helped me get my first California job with minimal hassle! Pros is a fantastic tool to assist in the always-daunting job search. When I moved out to California, ZipRecruiter was one of the first online job-boards that I went into. As for the platform, what's not to love? Clean interface, suggested jobs, many jobs listed but without being visually overwhelming, heavy details upon further clicking, and many include pay and benefits in the quickly visible ad. Also, the mobile experience is just as enjoyable as the desktop version. Cons About the only issue, I had with dealing with ZR for a few months was the excess emails and notifications. Yes, I would like to receive related job offers but maybe once a week. I don't want them coming every day or several times a day because I had gone through numerous job title searches. Thankfully, these are all options that can be turned on and off at will... as long as you look for them. Review Source NC NOEL C. Account Advisor Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Mediocre Job Board" December 12, 2019 3.0 Overall I used them as I was in the market and looking for new opportunities. While I was contacted by a few companies, I found most of them to be unreliable. This is more on the company than but it certainly seemed like there was less of a spam filter for job postings. I wish the emails would have been helpful but ultimately they were not. Pros Zip Recruiter seemed to have quite a large number of job listings, which is nice if you are on the market and looking to apply to as many as possible. They also have a notification service that is set up for you automatically which will routinely email you job postings that they deem to be a good fit, allow a bit of a hands off approach to job hunting. Cons The issue was that it had a large number of shady looking opportunities. Many that never responded or were questionable in terms of reliability. I had a number of opportunities end up never responding to me after we had had initial conversations or even had an interview. Instead of telling me no, they just ignored me completely. I also found the email job suggestions to be totally off the mark. Many of them were terrible fits and didn't match up well at all with what I was looking for.
