In my opinion, not the best experience...
I was trying to fill an accounting position and would have considered my experience with ZipRecruiter to be a very large failure.

$780 and ZERO qualified candidates - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

Vetted Review

I loaded a European Automotive Technician Professional job onto Zip Recruiter and the results of the applicants were line cooks from McDonald's, Painters, Chicken House Workers, etc. ZERO applicants with European automotive experience - or regular automotive experience. I immediately within 24 hours contacted Zip Recruiter who told me to duplicate my ad in other cities, which I did. A month later I had 3 applicants who had the experiences listed above and a bill from ZipRecruiter for $780. Absurd! Never will I ever recommend this company. A gentleman called me about 2 weeks AFTER I stopped the ads and told me he thinks there is a much better way to sign up for a plan to help me. I was taken aback because, why wouldn't you call me and tell me this from the get-go instead of waiting until you bill me nearly $800? Poor service. They want money and are not interested in actually helping you find a qualified candidate. This service may work if you don't need educated and skilled staff but it's not an appropriate resource for someone looking for a specific skill set.
- Charge you a LOT of Money and COLLECT money from you
- Call you when you cancel your jobs to offer a way to collect more money
- Get you candidates that have nothing to do with your listed job
- Provide qualified candidates! That would be cool!
- Provide feedback on best plans BEFORE you pay in big money and cancel them subsequently
- Close their ripoff business model and save business owners the headache
- Well, I would like to find professional team members - but ZipRecruiter failed at accomplishing that
- They are a liability and high risk on my P&L - they provide ZERO return on the investment. ZERO ZILCH ZIP and that should be their tag line. ZERO ZILCH ZIP QUALIFIED Recruits will apply!
- They spend all that money I paid them sending out mailers to all my peer business owners making false promises and it's a joke!
Indeed was expensive BUT I got results - so that's where I'll go back. Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah watch me walk away!

- ZIP ZILCH NADA
- Why would I?
Yes
Indeed - mistake on my part.
None of these. I was looking for an alternative option that maybe would find some technicians. Instead, I found line cooks and garage door workers and painters and dirt movers. How about we let them work on your Mercedes and see how happy you are with the results?
I would never have used Zip at all.

No
Change management was minimal

ZipRecruiter - A must use tool in recruitment marketing
My clients use ZipRecruiter to promote their hard to fill positions - specifically in healthcare. All of my clients utilize ZipRecruiter in effort to help fill critical positions. Most of my clients have between 100-300 open positions at any given time, and ZipRecruiter plays a vital role in helping to drive applicants to these open jobs.
- Drives applications
- Drives QUALITY hires
- Offers a lost cost per applicant ratio
- Provides great customer services throughout the process
- Providing a more visual aspect of the process
- Showing results based on the specific site the job was promoted
- A more detailed list of sites under their umbrella

- Great ROI
- Can track ROI on specific positions
- Can start and stop campaigns at any time
ZipRecruiter stacks up very well with the competition. We still use the competitors as they both provide a great return, but in terms of quality, they are top notch. From a volume stand point it all depends on the budget that is allocated, you are truly getting what you pay for - which a lot of other organizations cannot say.

Client services. I am the person who utilizes ZipRecruiter on behalf of all of my healthcare clients. I utilize it to make sure their hard to fill jobs are being promoted with the ZipRecruiter job board and alerts platforms. The goal is to drive applicants for their hard to fill positions, allowing they have the proper staffing within their respective organizations.

Again - we only have one person who interacts with ZipRecruiter and that is myself. No specific skills are required other than knowledge of the jobs that we need to be sponsored at any given time. Organization certainly helps as to ensure that we promoting the correct jobs (not to many and not to few).
- Alerting passive job seekers about open positions
- Allowing active job seekers to find positions on various job boards
- Fill open positions
- Drive quality applicants
- Targeting out of market
- Promoting events
- Using both alerts and postings together
- Sponsoring more positions
- Expanding geo areas for job alerts
- Adding job alerts for those clients only using postings
- Getting jobs sponsored
- Getting updates on results
- Making changes to campaigns
- Getting automated job level results
- Tracking budgets mid campaign
Yes, but I don't use it
