ZipRecruiter Reviews: 4.8/5 — Highly Rated

I loved the ability from the applicant side to see how I was being considered. It also gave me an opportunity to connect with a recruiter personally if I needed additional help.

I actually really liked the product, although there were a lot of emails notifying me of updates. Overall, no complaints

Ability to see where candidates have previously applied.

Applicant flow has significantly slowed down over the past year.

Ziprecruiter is, to me, one more job board. It has yet to differentiate itself in any way from indeed, monster, etc. It performs its basic functions well, but I don't know why it's used over anything else. It's automatically linked with our ATS, so we log in and will post there automatically.

As I said - I don't see any difference between ZipRecruiter and any other job board site. They need to do some real work on what makes them different and how they stand out in a huge crowd of job sites. I don't think I ever thought to go to ZipRecruiter on my own, without being linked for some other reason.

We are working in a hyper-growth business bubble right now. Our business is skyrocketing and we are trying to hire an enormous amount of people at once, while also ensuring that they are the right fit for the team and for the organization.

Able to post information quickly and easily. Able to reach a wide audience.

Lots of old resumes with out dated info. Or duplicate resumes with fake info.

To help fill open roles and find candidates. Financially I would say it is some what of a benefit as we have been able to place at least one candidate from this board.

I really like how ZIP recruiter in Tempe Arizona has a really good office culture. I interviewed for a customer service position there and although I did not get the position I like the culture a lot

I already had a trip planned to go home and I was not allowed to take the trip should I get hired. I understand being new to something and needing to be there, but since I already had something planned I wish I could have gone

Zip recruiter sent me soooo many emails during my job search. I wish they would have not sent me as much, because most were jobs I was never going to be interested in so they just turned into spam emails

I like how it shows interests and relevant options to my past searches

Thus far there are no topics that I dislike

I am easily focusing on the best fit. Zip Recruiter has helped me regain confidence that I can get back to Corporate Employment

The customer service line on Zip Recruiter was quick. The phone tree wasn't too long.

I had cancelled my account and I continued to get billed.

I found Zip recruiter very easy to use, and for the first month of job postings I received resumes of qualified candidates

Recommendations on job opportunities in my local area

Nothing, haven't used it before so still waiting to see.

Seeking new opportunities to best fit my career growth

Ease of applying using existing Resume with minor changes

No dislikes - a simple process that took a few minutes to complete

Ease of new job applications. Awaiting benefits based on current application - will provide later

The platform is easy to access and navigate, and I like the way the candidates are tracked (along with their resumes and responses).

I did not see a clear way to respond to candidates through the platform (and it did not seem as simple as replying to the email). It was also not clear to me whether candidates were actually applying or whether the system was providing matches based on experience?

We are working to fill an administrative position for our business. We are small in terms of number of employees, and we all wear lots of hats as a result. Recruiting is one responsibility that I have to juggle, and I was drawn to ZipRecruiter as a way to leverage my efforts. But the cost is prohibitive for us, since we are only hiring occasionally and not constantly in recruiting mode.

The ease of use is fantastic. I can openings anytime and anyplace.

Lack of right job opportunities. The app connects to one word and sends lots of wrong job openings.

Seeking full time or contract employment in leadership development consulting.

Once you complete your file it’s easier to be matched to jobs than other website job hosts.

Wish there was a way to integrate LinkedIn skills recommendation so I don’t have to ask people for reviews and skill recommendation.

Updated file matches you to more jobs. Keep file Updated.

Its easy to get started. Liked the online support as well. Also on the Phone, Miguel C was helpful.

Our first ads were on hold without a given reason. Had to call them up t get the account set free.

Filling our recruiting pipeline with a focus on quality

Services, posting more than one job, chat service.

Price bouncing, lack of communication. I would prefer more communication with our account rep.

Kalie was very helpful with telling us what our jobs were lacking. She also help me set something up so a rep could contact me over our account billing.

ZipRecruiter provided suggested jobs that may be of interest to me, which made it easier to see openings that I many not have come across otherwise.

When trying to complete a job search, it was hard to tailor my searches easily. The site seemed a little clunky.

I used ZipRecruiter to locate job openings in my area.

It's very easy to use and navigate, and it's also very organized.

We don't seem to get bang for our buck. We tend to get more candidates from free postings from indeed than from ziprecuiter.

The amount of exposure to job boards is good.

Too many pop ups for help hints. Emailing applicants is a labored process.

Not provided

I like it because not all my colleagues use it and i am able to find candidates that other recruiters cant

I don't like that there is no flip view.. makes it very difficult to shuffle through candidates timely

i am solving finding candidates noone else gets - good people apply as well

It is very user friendly and not difficult to manage the program.

I have found that zip recruiter is not very effective as an ATS or recruiting software. Not enough candidates have an account or post their resumes there.

N/a/ No longer using zip recruiter.

I like that a lot of the jobs feature the 1 click apply option and the ease of use within the site.

I never receive a callback or interview for about 95% of the jobs I apply to, even those I'm well qualified for and say I'm a great match. On top of that, the callbacks I do receive are either commission-based jobs or suspicious businesses. I was hired by 2 companies in the past 3 years that were both scammers.

ZipRecruiter always seems to have plenty of jobs in the field I'm looking for so it keeps me optimistic that I will eventually find a legitimate opportunity that I can call home.

Tge frequently available and updated Jodie searches

Jobs aren't always new listings and could activate r be available for use a lot less than daily

None

Easy to set up your account, upload a resume and get started

constant emails with jobs that don't actually match criteria

Looking for new position, there is a lot of jobs to choose from but a ton of competition and you are inundated with jobs that won't work

I actually found my current job on Ziprecruiter which I will be starting shortly. The suggested jobs feature is great. My favorite feature is the 1-tap apply option. It makes your job searching much easier especially when your eyes are crossing from applying to so many jobs and answering all the same questions repeatedly. I received at least 5-8 suggestions I was thoroughly interested in every other day. This cut down on time and gave me a more well rounded and exciting job search; since it opens up for new ideas/positions you may have not known you were interested in but match your skills and qualifications. I also like the daily emails and the updates on the status of my application.

The repetitive job openings for the same openings and already applied for. Sometimes the positions have already been filled and the status has not been updated on Ziprecruiter so time can be wasted filling out applications for positions not available. Also, in addition to the current status update (when your application has been viewed and how many times..etc) maybe adding a feedback option for prospective employees as to why the you were not chosen specifically surrounding the resume/profile.

No problems necessarily. I will starting my new position I found on Ziprecruiter. Benefits have been countless. I have utilized all the tools available and stayed vigilant with my search and it paid off.

The 1 step applying Yhe opportunity to update your resume The grouping of similar jobs

The jobs that has nothing to do with my experience

Updating personal information

I like that you do get updated information as it applies to job search, also that you can create a personalized profile.

I don’t like when I receive emails for opening positions that it is not what I’m looking for or in the right locations.

I found my last job with using zip recruiter and so far it’s been a good source for job seekers

I like I can customize on a whim I like a lot of the options available.

Raising the price will have me looking for another avenue to find my applicants. It sounds like a lot of people in my company will be doing the same.

I am finding quality people to work with me.

I like the daily email updates re: new applicants, the ability to email templates directly from the application, and how you can collaborate with other users.

Runs a little slowly sometimes, and it is easy to get lost when scrolling through candidate pages.

Generating good applicants.

I like being able to make 1000 contacts a month

Not being able to directly invite them to apply to a job on Zip

I have gotten a few decent candidates from Zip

I liked that ZipRecruiter weeded out a lot of the spam applicants and I was able to search for specific qualifications in the positions I was recruiting for. This cut down on a lot of time having to skin through resumes of under-qualified applicants.

I did not see a large number of applicants in general. ZipRecruiter markets itself on providing employers top job seekers with a streamline way to filter through applicants. However I don't think ZipRecruiter is enough of a household name to warrant paying for the service. Most people I have talked to have never heard of the company and the most common answers were Indeed and Monster.
