  • They run a lot of commercials.
  • The interface is good.
  • Low candidate quality.
  • AI, who sends jobs to your candidate or brings them to the forefront for you to contact, is mediocre.
  • Volume did not impress me, either.
  • I just wonder if this is even a good sight for tech companies... I am not sure as I have tried it several times and never even been close to satisfied.
  • I have never hired a candidate that came to me as a result of Zip Recruiter in the last 5+ years.

  • They notify us when there are new candidates that match our requirements
  • They give us the links of the candidates online networks, so it's all right in front of us
  • They have a great messages center, that makes it easy for me to access and reference when needed.
  • The only thing I can think of is, I don't prefer the unecessary emails I get from ZipRecruiter that don't pertain to my business, or what we use ZipRecruiter for.
  • I can't think of anything else that needs to be better

  • Easy to sort by time, location, keyword
  • Easy to use in general-- nothing confusing
  • Top resume database for recruiting
  • The industry choices are limited and not ideal.
  • When you type a boolean it sometimes "enters" on its own and makes you retype it all out.
  • Have to buy resume reviews and we run out frequently. Definitely expensive platform.

  • I wasn't around long enough to find out.
  • It could ask potential customers to opt-in as opposed to opting out before they begin charging you after the free trial ends.
  • They could bill weekly so that potential customers could not be slammed with a 30-day bill when they did not turn off their free trial listing.

  • 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
