Zip recruiter is great when it works properly. It can save time with finding resume but I do have a lot of problems with it
It really bothers me that there is not a flip view to view resumes, it takes a lot of time to open the resume and then click back to search results for the next resume. Also I do not like that I can't paste my whole booleen search because at lot of the candidates that come up in my search are not retentive. I also don't like that I can't copy and paste the resume into Bullhorn but I have to download it first and save it. It just wastes more time.
At this time I feel like zip waste's more time than it actually helps but if they changed a few things it could be more useful
Easy to use, clean interface, and it seems like a lot of people go there looking for a job.
Deceptive, sneaky, poor business practices. They get you to sign up for a trial and then hit your credit card for $500 plus another $100 or so, and then you are on for a monthly dues at that rate. And worse, I paid all that and got 0 good candidates.
We solved no problems, I used Workable and Indeed and got lots of results. Zip Recruiter ripped me off and didn't provide a single good candidate.
Not sure really. I dislike more things than like.
The conversion of clicks is so low for what that you pay, £99 for a listing is a robbery! They do not have claimed traffic and people seeking job which they do advertise, apparently they have huge base, 2 clicks for the whole time is a laugh. Don't waste your money on job posting here, free options do have more conversions.
Nothing for me unfortunatelly
There was a decent volume of applicants and a few were qualified.
Their billing practices are shady and dishonest. They do not warn you about trial periods ending, they will not notify you upon your billing starting, and they are absolutely unwilling to rectify any billing errors no matter the financial impact on those that they have unwittingly charged. Their customer service is unfriendly, and has been trained to reply with canned responses of the ToS, and are mostly combative.
Filling my recruiting pipeline. There was an occasional well qualified candidate.
It is good for applying for new roles on the candidate side. I have used it for that previously.
Honestly, most of it. The search functionality in the resume database is TERRIBLE. I am a technical recruiter, and you can not even search with booleans. It is terrible. I have to use 1 keyword, and even then, it sucks. It seems their algorithms are messed up or inaccurate. They also almost doubled their price overnight. You also can not search by location effectively 100+ miles is so misleading. I do not suggest
well, we thought posting ads there and pulling candidates' resumes off there would be of benefit. but as of this month as a company, we will no longer use ZipRecruiter
They welcomed me with a trial period, they were very kind while getting you in.
I have a small business and wanted to hire only one person. I tried ZipRecruiter. They welcomed me with a trial period, they were very kind while getting you in. I tried for a week, but the candidates do not fit much and I wanted to cancel my membership but my credit card was charged ($192.00). They do not warn me. I requested a refund but they did not listen, and they were not kind either. Be careful, and keep away!
I have tried hiring for my small business
Absolutely nothing, I currently have nothing good to say about ZipRecruiter.
Incredibly high prices, Prices based on days displayed regardless if anyone sees it or not, No customer service, under qualified applicants, no views of posted job.
Worst company to ever post a job. Posted a good sales position, received 2 under qualified applicants and a total of 32 view with charges over $1500 because they switched us to a premium account with double checking. They did not reach out to us and tell us our ad was not performing at all and refused to refund us even though we didn't even receive one qualified applicant. Don' t even consider using ZipRecruiter.
Nothing very bad website lies about everything
Everything is not good hates it on here
Have not
They harass me with free trial offers in the mail, which is great.
Didn't find qualified candidates. Refused to refund me $50 for only showing 3 candidates without qualifications. Waste of money. Lousy customer service.
Was trying to find a new massage therapist to hire for my growing business. Will never use this company again.
Ease of use, user interface and speed at which our postings are aggregated.
98% of applicants are interntional and need sponsorship.
Not provided
Nothing, i posted multiple jobs everything from retail to administration positions and not one response.
Everything i posted multiple jobs everything from retail to administration positions and not one response.
I have not used this system since the free trial and won't ever use it again.
The platform was clean and easy to use.
I have used many recruiting tools and this was by far the worst at giving me any results. I think I maybe got two page views for the ad I posted.
