Indeed Ads (Sponsored Jobs) vs. Ladders Recruiter

Using indeed for ongoing job needs is great as the job ad will be there for an extended period of time. The use of Indeed for a quick need-to-hire tomorrow situation has been tough. I have found that it may take a few days to gather good applications.

It would depend on the company size. From experience, it does not serve us well but it might work better for a different company or industry

• Immediate response, that's what I need. I post the job, there is no waiting one day or two hours to respond to the candidates.
• Gives me better visibility, better ability to choose different candidates, I've tried sponsored jobs with deal-breakers and non-deal-breakers. Sometimes is best not to have a deal-breaker for certain jobs because I might pass on a candidate I wouldn't have thought to maybe take a look at.
• I've also used the instant match, I'm starting to get better at qualifying those candidates and I had a few applicants from that.

• It does have a large applicant base
• It seemed to have qualified users

• The biggest area for improvement that I see is the automatic job collapsing for posts that are coming from the same company, same title but different locations. A lot of our locations are hiring hourly team members and are within 10-15 miles of each other. This issue significantly reduces the number of applicants that we see and makes our lives as recruiters more difficult when we need to try and manage 75 locations across both concepts that are potentially hiring for 2-3 positions at a time.

• The response rate of the candidates(but that isn't Ladders fault)
• Only one user can access the account which does not serve us well as we have several people that work on Executive positions.
• From experience, The ability to get candidates to respond to you was awful

I use Indeed Sponsored Jobs pretty much on a daily basis. As a recruiter this would be the first thing, I renew to help me succeed in my role as a staff recruiter.

They continue to improve their platform. Although sometimes adding more functions can decrease usability, Indeed is very good at adding definitions and information in a very user-friendly way. You are truly able to customize your service and job ads in a way that benefits you and your company. You also have complete control over your ad and your budget

Our Indeed support team far exceeds the support I've received from any other recruitment platform. We have a dedicated account executive AND a client support specialist, both of whom go out of their way to assist with everything from making our job ads more effective to make the billing process more transparent. They are a rock star team that truly takes the stress out of recruiting!

While I was not there at this company, since I joined we have had to revise some things. They have been great!

Handshake is mainly for the college-age group. We have listed some of our jobs on here before, but never had a good turnout of applicants. We tried ZipRecruiter, but it was easier to manage all of our jobs if they were listed on one site. We would also sometimes have people apply on both our ZipRecruiter listing and our Indeed listing.

It does not at all

Incentivized

• Applicant quality varies depending on the position, sometimes we get really good ones and bad ones so it's positive and negative at times.
• Positive impact with being cost effective. I don't feel we pay too much for what we need, but it's not "cheap" by any means either.

Incentivized

• None. We got no ROI with Ladders
