Overall Satisfaction with Glassdoor.com

Glassdoor.com is mainly used to recruit for "revolving door" roles. This application keeps steady applicants coming in for those roles that never seem to fill longer than a few months. It has been an app that I keep in the background to catch any applicants I haven't obtained from another platform.

Pros

  • Recruitment
  • Narrowing Down Applicants
  • Filtering

Cons

  • Repeat Candidates
  • Wider Reach
  • Filtering Options
  • Larger Talent Pool
  • valuable feedback
  • transparency
Glassdoor.com has proven to be an incredibly user-friendly platform that is both intuitive and easy to navigate. I find the overall functionality to be straightforward, which makes it simple to learn and use effectively, even for those who may not be very tech-savvy. I have encountered no difficulties when it comes to posting open positions, enhancing visibility through boosts, or reviewing and managing applicants. Everything is clearly laid out, making the entire process efficient and seamless.
Glassdoor.com appears to operate a bit differently compared to some of the other recruiting platforms I regularly use. From my experience, it doesn’t seem to have the same level of engagement or reach among job seekers. Although it does generate a high volume of applicants, I’ve noticed that many of those applications tend to be from the same individuals I’ve seen through other platforms or previous postings. As a result, it sometimes feels like I’m not getting access to a broader or new pool of talent through Glassdoor.com alone.

Glassdoor.com has never brought in the same selection of applicants as some of my other search engines. I tend to receive the same applicants over and over again. That is not helpful when I have already screened them and decided not to move forward with them. While they bring in the numbers, those numbers are rarely candidates I want to pursue.
