### "The AI powered ATS "

December 29, 2018

4.0

Your hiring needs will become fast if the jobs are posited in Mighty.

Pros

Mighty has the unique features of free job posting & that will be published to many job boards and other social media platform. As a user, I'm been receiving quality applications for my niche positions as well. The AI will give a rating to the candidates according to the job spec and resume match that is a wow feature to sort candidate easily.

Cons

Certain jobs are not receiving many applications compared to other jobs posted hope this will be addressed soon.

Following Indeed's new policy change, some type of jobs, including jobs from third-parties and recruiting firms, may begin receiving less traffic. There are also a few things to keep in mind: Work-from-home, trucking, some sales (mainly outside) don't perform too well amongst free job postings, which is why we have separate niche boards for similar jobs.

### "Really love it but..."

December 8, 2016

4.0

I really love Mighty Recruiter (formerly JobTab) however, we just do not get the best candidates from either the resume search or from our job postings. We recruit specifically within the Logistics & Supply Chain field so that may be what is affecting our results. Overall we really love the Mighty Recruiter team and think that they are making huge strides to give their customers a top quality product.

Pros

It is very easy to use. You can perform most tasks quickly. There are added features that most resume/candidate sites do not offer.

Cons

Not producing the best candidates selection.

### "FRAUDULENT DO NOT BUY!"

April 13, 2020

1.0

FRAUDULENT AND UNPROFESSIONAL!!

Pros

NONE. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH FILTERS TO GET THE RIGHT RESUMES. THEIR SYSTEM DELIBERATELY WOULD BILL YOU TWICE OR THRICE EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Cons

I BOUGHT THIS FOR THEIR RESUME DATABASE. THE PREMISE IS THAT YOU BUY A PLAN WITH X NUMBER OF RESUME VIEWS THAT DON'T EXPIRE. BASICALLY, YOU BUY VIEWS AS NEEDED. I STARTED NOTICING THAT THE VIEWS ARE RUNNING OUT FAST, THEN I NOTICED THAT WHEN I CLICK "VIEW FULL RESUME" INSTEAD OF CHARGING MY ACCOUNT FOR 1 VIEW (HENCE JUST 1 RESUME) THEY WILL CHARGE FOR 2-4 VIEWS! i CONTACTED CS AND THEY DENY THEY HAVE THAT BUG. I BOUGHT VIEWS AGAIN AND IT HAPPENED FOR THE SECOND TIME! THIS TIME THEY DENIED AGAIN OF THE FRAUD OF DOUBLE CHARGING. THE THIRD TIME I USED A SCREEN RECORDER TO HAVE A PROOF! SINCE I HAVE PROOF OF THEIR FRAUD NOW, INSTEAD OF FIXING THE BUG, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] EMAILED ME AND SAID NEVER TO USE THEIR PLATFORM EVER AGAIN AND STILL DENIES THIS IS A BUG AND INSIST THAT I AM THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS!! HE REMOVED MY ACCOUNT WITHOUT PERMISSION!!! SO I AM WRITING THIS REVIEW FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW THEY JUST PRETEND IT IS FREE BUT THEY ACTUALLY CHARGED 2-4 TIMES MORE! FRAUDULENT AND UNPROFESSIONAL!!

### "Great for managing candidates in a central location"

April 2, 2018

4.0

Manage candidates in one place. Takes away the noise of job boards

Pros

I like the fact that this is a central location for all things related to finding your candidates. Traditionally this process has been very fragmented for us we had several job boards open in one tab and communicated to candidates through our email account and independently reviewed resumes that came in. It was a mess when we had several positions to fill. MightyRecruiter takes care of all this! I am a MightyRecruiter customer and received an Amazon gift card for completing this review.

Cons

Due to the fact that mightyRecruiter tries to filter out the noise it looked like we had a lot fewer resumes come in. Sometimes you want to cast the net a little wider if you do not have a well-defined position you are looking to fill. Otherwise great for our purpose I am a MightyRecruiter customer and received an Amazon gift card for completing this review.

### "A bit clunky but serves it's purpose"

November 9, 2016

4.0

I switched to MightyRecruiter when I wanted to upgrade from ZipRecruiter. I was excited at the possibility of not having to post roles to Indeed, Zip, and other job boards all on my own and having a system that did it all for me. However, I have found that I do not get as many applicants through Mighty as I did when I posted them all on my own. The interface of Mighty is a bit clunky. The way you have to go through new applicants is not efficient, and I don't like that the status doesn't automatically update (i.e. if I email a candidate, it doesn't automatically classify the candidate as "Contacted"). However, I do like its invite to apply feature and that is allegedly has millions of resumes to look through. I probably need to use that more to get the value of $280/month out of it.

Pros

Resume database

Cons

Interface of viewing candidates

Response from MightyRecruiter

November 9, 2016

Thanks for your review, Christy! You should definitely try searching the Resume Database of 18+ million resumes - other customers have found this to be a great source of quality candidates.

### "Really great ATS. Powerful features. And its FREE."

June 19, 2018

4.0

Makes recruiting, hiring, and keeping track of applicants a breeze.

Pros

I've been searching for an inexpensive Applicant Tracking System for a long time, with certain much needed features. My search is over. Not only is this app free, is has pretty all the same essential features that other apps are lacking or charge premiums for. This is a really fantastic fully featured ATS and am so glad I found tgis after trialing a dozen+ others! Love it.

Cons

The one thing I dont particularly care for is the fact that the hosted widget does not give the same appearance as the actual career page.

Response from MightyRecruiter

July 20, 2018

Thanks for being part of our team! We completely understand what you mean by wanting the widget to show completely. You could try adding a button to your website which leads to the MightyRecruiter Career Site URL which would do the trick, just have your site developer install the correct button!

### "MightyReview"

December 19, 2017

4.0

Pros

It really is a great tool that consolidates the recruiting process.

Cons

There isn't a lot of information on how they charge money before you sign up. It seems like it is all free.

### "The leader of the ATS. Don´t look any further"

August 9, 2018

5.0

I think the cost is reasonable, labor aggregation seems competitive and access to external jobs is also a good feature.

Pros

It is a novel and excellent marketing tools and informative emails, hoping to find qualified candidates to continue providing value service, easy to use, timely and accurate

Cons

Most candidates do not meet the requirements of the job or do not finish it, generating valuable time loss that can be used in another activity

### "Might Recruiter is Your Number One Stop for Recruiting"

October 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

I am a Mighty Recruiter customer and received an Amazon gift card for completing this review. The website is easy to navigate, posts to dozen of job board, and provides a lot of quality candidates with its screening questions.

Cons

I do not like the pickiness of the titles. I also do not like that there is no option to only see your ads, but it is still a good price for what it does.

### "Great platform to look for candidates"

March 22, 2018

5.0

“I am a MightyRecruiter customer and received an Amazon gift card for completing this review.” It did not affect the quality of my review in any way.

Pros

It is very easy to sign up and start using. It has everything I need in one place. I do not have to seek for resumes and post our ad somewhere else, with MightyRecruiter I operate different job board, review resumes, communicate with candidates - everything in one place.

Cons

Can not think about anything specific regarding cons of the service, as I said it is a great platform and works perfectly for me so far.

### "Great Content"

Pros

MightyRecruiter provides great content for employers as well as webinars which are great even if your schedule allows you to only attend part of the session. It allows you to keep learning and growing as an employer, recruiter and professional.

Cons

Still a growing brand that isn't as well recognized as other platforms. May not get as much exposure through them currently but I'm sure that will change.

It saves time and money, when selecting personnel, filters the profiles of each vacancy to optimize the selection of personnel

November 10, 2016

5.0

We didn't know which route to go. We are a expanding business, and the hiring process began to take too long a long with producing low quality candidates. We just started using MightyRecruiter, and have seen many qualified candidates! Would recommend to any business struggling to find quality employees.

### "Post your and let the platform work for you"

August 2, 2018

4.0

The pros and cons of this platform are equal so it better to give it a try.

Pros

You can either search for a resume or post a job and some can find it and get back to you with their resume rather than you trying to find someone

Cons

User Interface is not that appealing, you search based on Job titles but not through the boolean string that other platforms provide like (Monster, Career Builder)

August 15, 2017

Pros

Easy to access, control and also to handle the application. able to receive apt resumes all the time

Cons

The time taken to approve a job posting is so long where time gets consumes most of the time........

Response from MightyRecruiter

August 17, 2017

We appreciate your kind words! We strive to be the best candidate acquisition tool out there! Regarding the time it takes to post a job... Jobs are usually approved within an hour of being posted, after that it takes a couple hours for all the job boards to index them into their feed, hence the little amount of wait time. Please reach out to me at recruiterhelp@mightyrecruiter.com if you feel this happens again, or if you're experiencing longer wait times. We'll be happy to look into it for you!

### "Do Not Use"

May 12, 2022

1.0

Pros

The only good thing about this software is the resume database and it is still glitchy and crashes multiple times while using it.

Cons

The customer service team and the ease of use of this software is horrendous. Software will crash on you numerous amounts of times while running searches. Also they can't even process a payment do to the amount of times it crashed. We tried to buy 500 credits to use the resume database and got told the same answer that is your bank blocking a transaction only to call to the bank and have them explain no one tried to run our cards. The customer service is nonexistent if you have a problem they do not have a solution. Save your time and money.
