Indeed.com vs. Snagajob (Snag)

[Indeed.com] is a very helpful tool for recruitment. Just about every posting receives several candidates. Whenever the candidate pool is unqualified, it is easy to add more requirements or questions to knock those candidates out. There are several options to describe what kind of job you are advertising for. It is my favorite recruitment website.

Peoplematter is a great solution for companies who want to save time and money on the onboarding process. It is a very simple solution that will really aid your managers and HR with their daily duties. It provides relief by ensuring the W4 and I9 are filled out accurately, plus additional onboarding items. It integrates with job boards making posting jobs a breeze. It has great reporting functions to help track where your new hires are coming from, turnover, assessments scores, etc. Honestly, I feel PeopleMatter's Price Point makes this product valuable to any size company or business

• 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

• The assessments in the Hire module allow managers and supervisors to choose from applicants who are suited for our line of work.
• The onboarding process allows our company to avoid costly printing of hiring packets.
• The Learn module allows us to reach all of our associates with the same material at one time, which allows consistency throughout our stores.

• A lot of the same applicants apply over and over to the same job postings despite being rejected due to being unqualified for the position. This is particularly a problem when doing large-scale hires in one specific location.
• Indeed has poor filtering and search capabilities for employers. As an employer on Indeed you deal with huge QUANTITY of applicants - which can be great but when looking for specific skillsets, it can be difficult to find the right applicants in such a large pool. For executive level positions, Indeed is not my preferred job positing site.

• Messaging candidates options are limited. There are pre-written questions if you want to use them, but I cannot change them or figure out how to change them.
• To schedule an interview I only have 140 characters to leave a note to the candidate.
• The "My Team" features are not useful to my company at all.
• There used to be a search candidate function, but it was limited. It has been removed from the site.

I would definitely renew our use of PeopleMatter, because it would not be beneficial or cost effective for us to go back to doing it in house. If they are willing to listen to our needs and wants and update the program for the better on a regular basis why would you. I feel like we got in on the ground floor and we are evolving with them

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.

It's a cleanly designed and easy to use website.

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.

The account reps were easily reachable. I have made different types of recommendation, especially about the communication part. There are videos and a help center with fairly quick response times. I can easily update my career site, and they even have a text to hire option. I have not used that yet, but we are discussing it.

I would just say make sure you really think about how you are setting up the product. Are you using the roles correctly? Can we automate any processes

Selected Indeed.com because job seekers use it heavily since it is simple to post their profile and less information is required of them. Downside is less information is available to the employer/ recruiter so job seekers will get more relevant responses on other sites where all their information is considered before they are reach out to by employers. Other job sites are more costly but yield a better outcome for both job seeker and employer/ recruiter.

PeopleMatter was selected primarily to support the store environment, and it does an excellent job in that space. It was chosen over other vendors for its easy to use, intuitive interface that really meets the needs of the manager in a retail store. The system helps managers select the best talent that has completed a validated assessment, improving the quality of talent in our stores.

• The largest positive impact Indeed.com has had is allowing our one person HR Department to have access to such a wide array of candidates.
• The ability to post job listings and not have a cost involved is an important reason we use Indeed.com.
• Even if we do not bring a candidate in for an interview, having our listings on the web helps to spread our name a bit and show that we are hiring.

• The ROI on using PeopleMatter is amazing when I consider the amount of paper saved, time saved, and not to mention the fact that using these services prevented our company from having to hire an assistant to help take care of the large amounts of paper work that come through our office.
