"Effective Job Posting and Candidate ManagementFinding Talent with ZipRecruiter – A Real Review"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

What I like best about ZipRecruiter is its ease of use and simple implementation, which makes it quick to get started without much training. The platform offers a wide range of features that support every stage of the hiring process, while still remaining intuitive. Integration with other tools is seamless, which helps streamline workflows. Customer support is responsive and helpful whenever needed. Since the platform is easy to navigate and efficient, I find myself using it frequently to manage job postings and candidate applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

What I find frustrating about ZipRecruiter is that although it brings in a lot of applicants, many of them aren’t necessarily qualified for the job. This can make the initial screening a bit of a hassle and take a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

sometimes AI provide candidates who are not suitable for the job description they will be completly from a different domain, single candidates apply in different job boards leading to duplicate profiles, manual screening is required as it doesn't always provide the right match, for job roles like java, python, servicenow, salesforece we get too many profiles which is hard to source, not the best one for niche roles.

"Streamlining Talent: My ZipRecruiter Experience"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

What stands out most about ZipRecruiter is its AI-powered candidate matching. Instead of just posting a job and waiting, ZipRecruiter actively pushes your job to qualified candidates and invites them to apply. This proactive approach significantly reduces time-to-hire and improves the quality of applicants.

The dashboard is intuitive, making it easy to track applicants, rate candidates, and collaborate with team members. I also appreciate the customizable screening questions, which help filter out unqualified applicants early in the process.

For recruiters working on tight deadlines or juggling multiple roles, ZipRecruiter’s automation and reach across 100+ job boards is a game-changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

Sometimes the matches miss the mark, and I still end up filtering through resumes that don’t fit. I also wish there were more customization options for job posts and clearer pricing—especially for smaller teams trying to stay lean. And while it does integrate with some tools, deeper connections with CRMs or ATS platforms would make the workflow even smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how all the information for the employer is already there on the screen and you only have to click if the job interest you. It makes searching for a job so much easier as by the time you click on it, you will know that your already wanting to apply. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The ZipRecruiter platform has done a great job in connecting job seekers with opened positions."
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I like that Phil is always looking even when I can't. I also enjoy being able to personalize my job recommendations all in one place. And the AI resume help is always great when applying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

Some listings still lack clear pay ranges, benefits details, or hiring timelines. By adding a more robust dashboard showing where you are in each employer’s process (and when to follow up) would reduce the “black hole” feeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ZipRecruiter - Excellent Job Search App"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

The landscape for job searching companies has changed dramatically over the past 15 years, and even in the past 5 years. I have narrowed it down to strictly two companies that use for job searching, because the rest of them are simply garbage and that is being nice. ZipRecruiter is one of those companies and have had solid success using their app and website to get offers. ZR is assertive, but not annoyingly intrusive in how they communicate opportunities that fit your profile. I like how they feed me real jobs and keep me in the loop. They have a unique look and easy to use interface, with settings that allow you to control important aspects. If you are not using this app and you are looking for a job, try it, it is worth it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

I honestly do not have anything negative to say. ZR has been great for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Latest reviw on Zip Recruiter"
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

The good change is that it has incorporated AI capability for the ease of candidate search &/or job search. I have been trying to use this platform as both employer &/or job seeker. The latest UI is more intuitive & 'Quick Apply' button is helpful. It allows to add pre-screening questions for vetting out candidate profiles in initial stage by the AI which is helpful as this is great in reducing the turnaround time for hiring process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

The AI capability needs fine-tuning as it seems to produce same results for candidate profiles & repetition of profiles &/or jobs. The Recommended Jobs notification that it sends out also seems to be repetitive without much relevant options to consider & most of it seems like spam.

Even after initial vetting of profiles by the AI, most of the candidate profiles do not seem relevant so it still takes time to manually skim through profiles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
