ZipRecruiter Reviews & Product Details

There was a decent volume of applicants and a few were qualified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their billing practices are shady and dishonest. They do not warn you about trial periods ending, they will not notify you upon your billing starting, and they are absolutely unwilling to rectify any billing errors no matter the financial impact on those that they have unwittingly charged. Their customer service is unfriendly, and has been trained to reply with canned responses of the ToS, and are mostly combative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about ZipRecruiter is that the jobs that they forward to me have been most on-target with the sort of positions I am looking for. When I have been hiring for teams I have led I have found that the results for candidates have been the most accurate. Very positive experiences all around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really have downsides working with ZipRecruiter. As an online jobs site, I find them to be best at delivering on the things they say they will. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that my information is saved to my profile, so it makes applying for multiple jobs a quick and easy process. From my dashboard, I can look at salaries,messages, available jobs, positions that I have applied for, and those that I have saved for later. This is especially helpful when you are perusing positions, yet don't have the time to research the company or actually send an application. I also like that I can set notifications to let me know when positions that match my qualifications and interests are posted. The ability to use a mobile app also makes it very convenient to check on jobs, see updates to applications, and to return messages in a timely manner. The notifications on the dashboard make it clear when I have action items that I need to take care of related to jobs, or when there are new positions posted that match my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the results I get when I search for particular jobs don't really match my query. For example, as a buyer, I get notices with job postings that contain the word buyer in the job description. This means that I am sorting through a lot of positions that are not a good match for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoy that Zipcruiter allows you to one-click apply for a plethora of opportunities. I also enjoy that you could cater the platform to specific types of jobs that you are looking for. It's really encouraging when you receive e-mails with new and live positions that I could apply for. I also like that it allows you to build your own profile where you can market yourself to employers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that certain jobs may stay live longer than need be. Once a position anywhere is filled the listing should close. There should be some algorithm to make this possible. For example, I once applied to several amount of positions and came to the realization that employers weren't reviewing all the applications coming in. I learned this because I was told at my current job that this outlet is used as a worst-case scenario. So in those terms I was lucky. I also learned this through applying to a certain position to only find out that the business has been closed for months. There needs to be a way to make sure employers are accountable for replying to candidates who are interested in the position. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like a lot of other job boards you set up a profile and you will get emails or notifications that you match a job. However, with ZipRecruiter you have the option of one-click apply. This is an awesome feature that saves time and you can apply to a lot of different jobs in a short amount of time. The process of setting up your profile is easy and it helps guide you through it. It also gives you pointers on how to make you stand out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Something I don't like is you will get a lot of jobs that have nothing to do with your background. Or you will get a notification that a job is a great fit, and you don't meet the requirements. Sometimes this will happen a few days in a row and it makes it's hard to filter through what is a good match and what is not. Other than that I don't have any other complaints about ZipRecruiter.

ZipRecruiter is fast, hassle free and was simple to get my profile and resume online. I appreciate the follow up emails that follow my progress and send me reminders of what action to be taking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to see an upload location on your profile for a Cover Letter. I think that the email marketing can be over bearing at times, keep emails coming but make sure they are very specific and that there is more purpose behind them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Good positions with lots of information available that are not necessarily found in other platforms. I was referred to the platform by another recruiter who was using it prior to us coming into the role we are in now. When I found out my contract was not going to extend, she immediately showed me ZipRecruiter and told me that it was a lifesaver during her time of trying to find a job. So far, I'm enjoying it as well and am looking forward to finding a good job through here. I also like that I can search for jobs and save jobs from multiple locations and I'm not tied down to just searching for one area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't seen any yet as I am new the website. From what I can gather in the short time that I have been on the site is that they are putting their good jobs for candidates out there and are able to help them find jobs that are valuable versus a job that is just meant to pipeline candidates. Unfortunately you run into that too often and it's frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is very user-friendly. It felt easy to navigate and fill in the information requested. I also really liked the design and colors. It made me feel like a game. And because it is easy to navigate, I felt more prompted to access it every day. I also really like the 1-click apply button because it makes job applications way easier.

Maybe too many messages. And maybe some positions feel like pyramid schemes or not genuine enough, but you will only discover that after interviews. I can give an example that has happened to me. Company name FBC - Florida Business Consulting. The job description has lots of descriptions, but everything sounds vague. Until you get there and learn you will be a salesperson with commission only and several goals to achieve in order to progress and "open" your own team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Je stelt een profiel op zoals vele andere jobsites en je krijgt e-mails of herinneringen dat je geschikt bent voor een functie. Met ZipRecruiter heb je echter de mogelijkheid om met één muisklik te solliciteren. Dit is een geweldige functie die u tijd bespaart en in korte tijd kunt u op veel verschillende functies solliciteren. Het is eenvoudig om uw profiel in te stellen en helpt u erdoorheen. Het geeft u ook tips over hoe u zich kunt onderscheiden. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Een ding dat ik niet leuk vind, is dat je veel banen krijgt die niets met je ervaring te maken hebben. Of je krijgt de boodschap dat een baan goed past, en dat je niet aan de behoeften voldoet. Soms gebeurt dit een paar dagen achter elkaar en het maakt het moeilijk om te sorteren wat een goede match is en wat niet. Verder heb ik geen andere ZipRecruiter problemen.

I like how user friendly it was to start using. I've used both the employer side as a recruiter for Ashley HomeStore and the candidate side when job searching. I love how fast you can flip between candidate resumes and the 3 different options you have when entering information after contacting a candidate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the quick rate option. Sometimes I forget that by rating someone the page will automatically bring up the next employee profile pending review. A lot of the time I'm reading the resume, I grade and then I call. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You create a profile like many other job boards and will receive emails or updates that suit a task. You are provided the opportunity to apply one-click to ZipRecruiter, though. It is a great feature that makes life easier and can be used for numerous jobs in a short period of time. The way your account is set up is straightforward and it lets you get there. This also provides you insights on how you can stand out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don't appreciate is that you're going to get many jobs without anything to do. Or that you are told that a position is very desirable and you may not meet the conditions. It sometimes occurs in a couple of days, and it is impossible to determine what is and is not a suitable match However, I have no other ZipRecruiter grievances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy it is to apply for jobs that align exactly with what I do! Also, I don't have to keep inputting the same information over and over. I can apply to 100 jobs in a day so easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That fact that i get too many interviews and cant keep up ;) In all seriousness. there isn't one thing I don't like about ziprecruiter. I would recommend some sort of import option for linkedin because a lot of professionals keep linkedin update very frequently Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoyed having such a long time waiting on hold for the billing department because it gave me the opportunity to write this review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

These guys are completely sketchy. Avoid this service unless you like surprise fees and terrible customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zip Recruiter is designed to help people from diverse backgrounds, skill set, education, and experience to narrow down their desired field of employment. The best feature for job seekers is after you complete your profile, the site automatically sends you jobs to apply to that match your talent and experience. Zip Recruiter also uses different modems of communication for job seekers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommended jobs should be aligned better with education and experience of candidates. For example, if you have management experience the recommended jobs show entry level positions, instead of tenure experience, education, and skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy and transparent it is to apply, search, and find jobs. I have now found three fulfilling jobs i've found thanks to zip recruiter. One job I didn't even have to apply to, they found my profile and contacted me. There is always daily updates on my feed of new jobs and ones that I may like based on my experience, giving me opportunity to expand my work experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In my profession, I am in a hiring role. I have found that so many applicants through zip recruiter either have no clue they've applied or just scrolled down and clicked apply, apply, apply blindly hoping to catch something. I'm not sure how this would be fixed but it's a bit of a time waster when contacting applicants. Perhaps not removing one click apply altogether but requiring a little more effort and awareness on the part of the candidate. I can't tell you how many times i've called applicants and they don't even know they've applied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how ZipRecruiter streamlines the communication process between employer and potential employee! As a government contractor, I am hardly ever promised long term employment but, with ZipRecruiter, all of the stress that comes with a potential job change is all but removed! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing that I would change is that I wish ZipRecruiter would allow you to customize job searches based on the time of type work you want to do within a specific field (ie. Field: SharePoint Developer, Type: Preferred development languages). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
