ZipRecruiter

My experience has been terrible. I hope ZipRecruiter takes my concerns to heart, rather than take my money, and ignore my complaint which I think is extremely transactional, unprofessional, and inconsiderate. You can make quick money or build long-term trust and business. In my opinion, ZipRecruiter should look at the long-term customer needs and not disregard them.

ZipRecruiter is a good source for some of my entry level of 2-year degree positions. It doesnt fair too well with some of my harder to fill positions and higher levels. While it does help with my entry level, I tend to receive the same applicants over and over again.

It would depend on what kind of talent acquisition budget they have. If they can spend the 3K a month for it, ZipRecruiter is a great recruiting tool.

ZipRecruiter is a very good paltform for the Recruiter and it is very useful in our day to day life to source and find a good profiles, it also gives us genunine profiles with proper experience and with correct location , only few where found fake , but those are expectional , rather than ZipRecruiter is a very useful platform

while looking for a store manager with previous retail management experience and strong leadership skills. I target the posting to each location, ensuring it reaches candidates in the respective areas. ZipRecruiter's platform provides a seamless application management system, allowing the recruiter to review applications, communicate with candidates, and share candidate profiles with store owners. The recruiter leverages ZipRecruiter's reporting and analytics features to track the effectiveness of their job postings and make adjustments if needed. we filled store manager positions in various locations using ZipRecruiter's targeted approach.

Very misleading and very poor clarity upon sign up. very limited focus on the automotive technician platform, and thus try to push non qualified resume's from other field in that direction. Not suited for tech recruitment. Very poor customer service when there is a problem and in this case absolutely mi-charged.

I mainly use ZipRecruiter through an Applicant Tracking System. When used this way for our company, it simply widens the net in terms of applicants that we receive. Generally speaking, with ZipRecruiter, we receive qualified applicants, just not as many as we do using Indeed, for example.

I have hired hundreds of people in numerous skill sets over many years, but I will talk about the last 5+ Years. In the last 5 years, I have not hired a single candidate that was brought to my attention via ZipRecruiter. I significantly made an effort to try and get an ROI on ZipRecruiter. I "sponsored" jobs, I used the search feature and tried training the AI resume delivery system...frankly, I tried it all. I never got any results. As I said, I have not hired one person ever from this site ever.

I really don't know that there is any reason it is not suited to any type of company. It has all the bells and whistles needed to get the job done when you have a recruitment need. Search options are good, applicant tracking is easy, and I like the use of templates available.

We just had a veterinary assistant quit, and we need to fill the position quickly since we are already short-staffed. With zip recruiter, we post the ad, and on the same day, we have qualified candidates to evaluate. With the candidate assessment, we can evaluate them even before we ask for an interview. This helps eliminate unsuitable candidates even before the interview process.

If you are a staffing firm or a company looking to fill a niche position, ZipRecruiter is probably your best bet. There is a deep pool of candidates and the search function really lets you drill down to specifics that a lot of other databases or Job boards dont offer.

It does not screen resumes very well. I wish it had the ability to review candidates prior to sending them on to us.

ZipRecruiter helped me to find a PTCB-certified technician by using smart tools to narrow down resumes. On the other hand, I have come across the same application many times over for Pharmacy Technician posting. It's not helpful to keep reviewing the same candidate when I know they aren't a good fit.

I think ZipRecruiter could be well suited if you have a discount card for a free trial or maybe you only utilize job boards once in a while. I can't imagine a scenario, however, where I would use ZipRecruiter to post multiple jobs unless I was not the one footing the bill.

A scenario where ZipRecruiter was well suited to my and my companies needs, was when we were notified of new candidates for sales positions when we actually didn't have an open hire call at the time. Because of the notification, I checked the new candidates, and I ended up hiring one of the best sales people we have.

A scenario that is less approprate, and doesn't fit my or my businesses needs, is when ZipRecruiter sends out marketing emails that do not pertain to my business, or what we use ZipRecruiter for.

It should be a part of your job board portfolio! Once an option, now would recommend as a key piece.

ZipRecruiter is well suited for businesses of any size, who post jobs with entry-level and/or general skillsets. This would include an administrative assistant, customer service professional, or data entry associate. For roles like these, you can expect at least 50 applications, with the opportunity to collect resumes from all backgrounds. ZipRecruiter is not the best suited for highly specialized roles. We find that other job boards have a more robust pipeline of candidates, who, with specialized skillsets, tend to post their resumes. This may include a specialized Marketing professional, IT developer, etc.

The potential is there were it can find and filter resumes. Fees are just too high for everyone to used software.

How is this company still in business? Not one of the candidates referred were even located in the same country! Not one of the candidates referred was even slightly qualified!

If you prefer honesty in your business dealings, I'd avoid this operation.

I had a horrible experience all around. From the poor quality of the candidates i received froM ZipRecruiter to the exorbitant prices I was charged to the unclear pricing they apply using the free trial to get you to sing up

They told me that my free trial was messed up so they restarted my free trial and told me the date when it was supposed to end. Then when I called them up to cancel it, they played a word game with me. I was told that it ends on Sun in the initial call when their agent told me happily the free trial was restarted. When I called to cancel it a different agent said that it ends on Sun actually means the charge starts on Sun! Okay, if you told me it ends on Sat and it starts to charge on Sun, it would have made much more sense! So they're scammy in a way like this. AND THEY CHARGED ME $48 FOR THEIR FREE TRIAL

As a recruiter focusing on finding top Manufacturing talent, ZipRecruiter is a TOP platform for finding top resumes. It is so easy to put keywords, locations, booleans, and skills. People use it a lot, and there are new resumes every single day to look at. Way better than Indeed, where it doesn't give you their email and phone number.

I can't honestly answer this because I did not stick around long enough to fully experience their services. I just wasn't impressed with the candidates I received during the free trial. The process of using ZipRecruiter as my pseudo "employment office" was too time-consuming. I dipped my toe in and decided it wasn't for me.

I really don't think this company provides anything valuable in the way of service. If they did, they wouldn't have to trick you into paying. Small writing and a checkmark before you do your "free posting" is an incredibly deceptive way of trying to make money.

This company is unable to provide qualified candidates. They sent me painters, line cooks from restaurants, excavation workers, garage door installers, shipping and receiving workers, etc. I did not receive ONE qualified candidate. NOT ONE. At the 24 hour mark, I called to advise I could look in the resumes and find candidates but their information was NOT provided to me to contact them. Instead, they have to be matched. But the Zip Recruiter system does not match qualified candidates to your jobs. I was told to add keywords but when she looked at the job she said they were all there. So she then told me to add my job to other cities, which I did then do. THEN I spoke to a gentleman who said he would have the 'boost' removed from the account - but that never happened either. This company cannot source skilled jobs. If you need professional skills - this is NOT the place to find an employee.
