"Landed the Job"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

The 1-Click Application feature is great! When applying to jobs at different companies, many of them have excruciatingly long processes required just to show your interest in a position. The 1-Click Application feature at ZipRecruiter allows a job-seeker to show many different employers that they are interested without having to spend hours applying to each position.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

It was a little difficult for me to find positions that were remote. The search just doesn't have a remote location option. I had a few queries that helped me find positions that were remote based, but the search didn't support it natively. I also received recommendations that weren't well suited for me or were at undesirable locations.

What problems is ZipRecruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

ZipRecruiter was a quick and easy process to check up on each day. I could see new jobs that usually included salaries so that I wasn't wasting time on positions set for the wrong career level. I could see when employers received my application and see who didn't even take the time to look it over. The experience was very pleasant and I found a good job through the site.

"Always have suggestions"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

If a job that they found doesnt fit what you want they will reassess and give you new job openings that better fit you. Costumer service is a great this as well, they will help you figure out why you are not getting the jobs that you really want in the long run which helps out a lot. You cant email or text with them over the internet basically anytime of the day, so if you have any questions they will do there best to help you out.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

They can keep sending you stuff for the same jobs you said you were uninterested in.

What problems is ZipRecruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

How to make my resume the best it can be. And it helped me find job i never would of thought about applying to. Just about everyday they would send me dozens of new opportunities. I am now employed making real good money and couldnt be happier thanks to the site zip requiter. It is also very nice because it will tell you whether you are a good, great, exellennt match for each job they put in you list. I have also recomended this to all of my friends and family just to see what all is out there as far as jobs go, like i always say if you not going p you are going down.

"One of the best online job boards with accurate alerts for your search"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I would say that the jobs sent to me are very relevant to my experience and I probably apply to 50% of those sent to me. I like the quick response and engagement info when an employer has looked at my resume too.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

At times the jobs are not relevant at all or too junior, almost as if Ai took over the assessment and only focused on one keyword.

What problems is ZipRecruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like the quick apply process and then being matched automatically to other jobs similar. But at times the matching job recommendations are not relevant or too junior since the match may be for one key word related to me. For example, I'm seeking a senior marketing and communication executive position. Many times I get jobs that have the word "marketing" in the title but have nothing to do with what I'm looking for.

What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

How its very intuitive(easy to use) and on top of every step of your job search from the personalized registration to the application, search methods, salary checking, employers viewing your application and finally your hiring status. My husband has used it and I am currently using it from his recommendation. Outperforms all other job search websites.

Nothing I can think of at this time however I'm still using it and will continue till I find something I desire.

What problems is ZipRecruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gives you a option to see salary for this position by asking the employer and having to see if and when the employer is reviewing your application is very helpful.

"Career Searching Algorithms Work Exceptionally Well"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

Like any algorithm, the ones used for ZipRecruiter don't always hit on-point at every instance but they do an excellent job at filtering out a plethora of irrelevant careers and seek careers in locations I care about.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

Algorithm needs to better consider career titles that are not acceptable for the individual seeking another job.

What problems is ZipRecruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm solving opportunities that other career search engines do not have. The benefits are greater networking with careers and generally fast responses from other companies.
