    Broadbean saves the team hours in multiple platform job postings since its integration. in addition to this because it integrates with our CRM we are able to manage applicants for each role in one place as opposed to each individual system/job board. this has freed up time that can be spent elsewhere on other activities.

    Well suited for searching the database for qualified resources, not well suited for those posting jobs. That is especially true if the job posted has a broader appeal, or applies to many job seekers, since it will attract hundreds that you will not have time to review. We have found that 1 in 20 are even qualified and have the basic requirements for what we post

    Pros
    CareerBuilder
    • Broadbean allows us to post roles on job boards that we normally don't get a match on, and lets us expand our search and visibility to more candidates than ever before.
    • Extremely easy to post, detail, and edit job postings on multiple jobs boards instantly.
    • Customer service and the help center are friendly and responsive.

    • The best free job advertising platform out there that is easy to use and integrates with our ATS Greenhouse
    • ATS (Greenhouse) automatically posts every job to Indeed and requires zero effort
    • Formatting of the the jobs from my ATS look good when "pulled" over to Indeed
    • Able to integrate questions with rules that allow you to shortlist candidates in a more timely fashion
    • Sponsoring portal has change a couple times. I do not love the new format as of 5/2021 but it is not bad.
    • They allow you to use a credit card for sponsoring which linkedin will not
    • Sponsoring criteria is good and has many options

    Cons
    CareerBuilder
    • There are a lot of steps to post adverts or even search candidates

    Indeed
    • Indeed.com tends to have a lot of fake listings or listings which overstate a role and that drives some users away from using the service.
    • Indeed.com's aesthetics are a bit dated so although the web sites functions are mature they also are a bit bland....if that matters to someone.
    • They seem to try and push the sponsor (cost to you) job lists a bit strong.

    Indeed does its job best in job postings, Sourcing resumes, and internal communication where our personal details can't be enclosed. Various filters help us source the particular resume.

    I haven't had to use Customer Service much for Indeed.com but the few times I've had encounters they have been very nice and helpful. They ensure you are getting the most out of your money with the resources Indeed has to offer. You can speak to customer service over the phone or on a quick messenger setting on the website depending on what your style is or how easy you feel your question is.

    Alternatives Considered

    Broadbean is the only tool we as a business have come across that brings most job boards together in terms of posting adverts and managing the influx of applicants. This works better and provides a greater ROI than using Indeed for example because this system forces you to manage your applicants within their built-in CRM as opposed to integrating with your own. This means more time is spent form filling and saving CV's etc than needed if you want to get a candidate into your company database.

    We used and are still currently using other job boards. Some are free of charge, some are paid services. We do not want to stop using Indeed.com since it provides up with ability to post job postings for free. This is really appreciated. We do not want to disclose names of other services.

    Return on Investment
    CareerBuilder
    • It is great to post adverts to multiple job boards and get that information out to a wide audience

    • Higher turnover in general for the positions we have hired for from Indeed which in some instances can hinder productivity. It is important to know that when using Indeed, you are getting volume/quantity and not necessarily top-performing employees.
    • It seems like the employees found on Indeed are constantly job hunting even when currently employed.
    • For our large-scale hiring, Indeed, all in all has had a positive impact as we are always able to fill the positions due to the large pool of resumes always on hand.
