CareerBuilder.com vs. Google for Jobs

CareerBuilder.com is better suited for positions that have a rotating door of employees. These are the positions that you are constantly hiring for such as a CNA. CareerBuilder.com is less suited for hard to fill specialized roles. You tend to get more hits on people who are unqualified, than someone of actual interest.

Filling open positions, finding new gigs, and transitioning from one role to another are all excellent scenarios for utilizing this tool. For some very niche industries, it may be less effective. However, the ease of use and incredibly broad database make this an unparalleled tool, perhaps even essential in 2022 and for some time to come.

• Allows you to have a broader data base.

• We did not see a large amount of applications in comparison to Indeed.
• The applications did not turn in to actual employees. We were more often than not ghosted by the candidates, even though the team followed up with them in a timely manner.

• Sometimes Google does not pull relevant searches. I might search "marketing" and a plumber comes up.
• Google could use more filter categories like searching multiple cities or certain hours.
• Google could make sure companies are filling out the compensation for the job instead of leaving it up in the air.

CareerBuilder.com is average in terms of overall usability. I am able to post my positions and figure the site out. However, finding out how many additional options you are is not something easily accessible. If you don't know where to look, you may not be able to find or know how many "boosts" you have to use for the month.

I have had a positive experience with CareerBuilder's support. When the platform has been updated throughout the years, CareerBuilder's account managers have always provided our team with helpful live tutorials and demonstrations to help familiarize our users with new and upcoming features, as well as older features that will no longer be offered. Support team makes themselves available on an ongoing basis.

WizeHire is one of the most amazing systems I've ever seen. I've continued to share their information with many, and my hope is that they take the hiring world by storm! It's easy to use, they obtain great candidates and many. They're very responsive and always there to help. They care about their clients. I strongly recommend them.

I'd say Google for Jobs stacks up comparably with Indeed or Glassdoor but lags behind the functionality of LinkedIn. we use all of these, and find Glassdoor to be the most traditional setup and easier to use whereas Google for Jobs can get a little trickier.

• I feel I wasted a lot of time, money, and energy with CareerBuilder.com
• I feel CareerBuilder.com caused me and my staff months of mental frustration

• More people are finding out about it
• ROI
