ZipRecruiter

I tried to use ZipRecruiter to find candidates in my service business. The sign up process was very misleading, calculated and very unclear. After participating in the free trail and receiving nothing even close to a qualified candidate, I was immediately charged an excessive amount for the next month without even realizing it. BE VERY CAREFUL AND VERY CAUTIOUS. The customer service team did nothing to help and in fact ZipRecruiter was about to make another charge. They have a dedicated team to address this very common dispute with the credit card companies.

We use ZipRecruiter to find candidates for positions that are difficult to fill otherwise. What we really like about ZipRecruiters it that it has one of the best candidate search to target and find quality candidates for very specific roles. It is also great at being able to find candidates using zip codes for certain locations. Essentially it gets us a higher quality of candidates for prices that are extremely competitive.

We currently utilize ZipRecruiter as a job posting site for applicant flow and on occasion will utilize the resume database as a means of sourcing candidates.

We got ripped off by their Free Trial offer, like many others, we have since learned. It's not free, it's a scam. Worse, the candidates were awful, very dated and not qualified. NEVER AGAIN.

I had a horrible experience as I was approached by ZipRecruiter via cold emails and offered a free trial. I ended up being signed into a $29/day contract with fine prints I didn't read. I tried to cancel multiple times but no chance to do it and ..$3.5k later (no statements sent ever) I am still being charged and I had to dispute the charges through AmEx. Ah, and I forgot to mention that I didn't get 1 single valuable lead from them when I was promised a specific ROI.

I used it to recruit people for my small business.

I signed up for the free trial. First mistake. I missed the daily charge for the job listing unless you turn it off your listing. You will be charged until you turn off your listing, you're not charged for each candidate you review (at least during the free trial). I looked at the candidates on the first day and saw only 1 possible candidate that might be worth an interview. On the second day, There were no candidates that were interesting to our company. Two days later (on a Saturday), a sales representative called & started giving me tips about how to get better candidates after I told her I wasn't seeing the types of candidates I had hoped for. She sent me some emails. I did not open them or respond in any way because I was not interested. A month later I received a fraud alert phone call from my bank with a Zip Recruiter charge for $525.76. I phoned Zip Recruiter & asked them to refund my money since I did not use the service. The representative noted that she could see there has been no activity from me other than the first two days of the free trial. She said she could not authorize a refund & that would have to come from the sales representative who called me a month earlier. (Of course, that was a run-around. What sales rep authorizes a refund?) The sales representative called me after receiving an email stating I called & asked for a refund. The sales rep spent nearly 15 minutes on the phone with me telling me how I am the problem, of course, I had bad results because my job description was too broad then she said it was too specific. She was all over the place and getting snarkier and snarkier as the conversation continued. I ended the call politely & let her know that when I said "I'm not interested, I meant I'm not interested." She very arrogantly stated, "Well, I'm not in charge of refunds. I don't see any reason why you would be granted one anyway." Zip Recruiter probably makes a ton of money from the free trial people. Never, ever sign up for a free trial! If they were a decent company, they'd say, "Yes, it is clear you never used any services beyond the free trial. As a matter of fact, you didn't even use the services for the full free trial time. We have that documented. We'll grant you a refund." But, it's not a decent company. Avoid the free trial unless you want to end up with a $500+ bill! A job listing costs $16/day.

We use ZipRecruiter to help us get access to candidates.

We opted to trial ZipRecruiter after trying Indeed last year and given our usual channel for promoting openings (LinkedIn) is not proving effective right now. I asked my Sales Development Team Leader to test it and provide pricing options, as well as a recap of his experience. We have other openings in the organization now and other department managers have been curious about our experience.

[ZipRecruiter is] used by all teams that have open positions or are seeking for talent to fill in but mostly by [the] people operations department.

We are using ZipRecruiter throughout the whole organization and we have a 10 job slot package to recruit for a company with about 1,000 employees. We use it for employment advertising and posting open positions. We first started using ZipRecruiter in 2015 after a free-trial offer and found that it generates the candidates needed to fill certain hard to fill specialty positions. We found that it works great for positions in building maintenance and other skilled positions.

We were hiring for a position in our Credit Department and used ZipRecruiter to post that position. I have only used it for that department. It helped us to receive and filter through candidates for this position.

I currently use ZipRecruiter to post any open positions that my company has a need to fill. I am the only one out of my Human Resource department to use it but they all have access to it if needed. It's a great resource to review resumes of applicants and connect with any candidates if needed. I am able to make any changes to my open positions at any time if needed which is nice because if we are not getting many candidates we can try to make it more appealing to a certain pool of talent.

ZipRecruiter is used across all departments of our business. It is one of the best hiring tools we have, and since we are a small business it is hard for us to post on our own site for candidates. Having a one-stop job posting site is the best HR solution that a business like us needs.

ZipRecruiter is used across the organization for different departments. Its single database and easy integration of its varied functions make it easy to implement. It addresses the issue of hiring functions and managing the hiring process for new employees. It also helps supply reports on hiring trends over specific time periods to help gauge hiring patterns in the long term.

We did the trial job posting. I used it to find an employee to work in our warehouse filling orders and building products.

ZipRecruiter is being used across the entire organization at this time. We have an on-demand need for labor at any given time in the moving industry and we always have a decent pool of candidates to choose from when needed. We also used it to search for our new CFO.

I was looking to higher a biller and an assistant for the business. I decided to try Ziprecruiter free trial to see if the applicant pool was better than other recruitment sites, and then would decide if I would purchase a one month subscription for the posting.

As our recruiter, I've used ZipRecruiter to post jobs and attract candidates. ZipRecruiter is one of the job boards our ATS is integrated with, and we see quite a few candidates come to us through this platform. We've used it as a free job board, done the free trial, and paid for job postings. We chose to use it as an option to further publicize our open roles.
