    I selected Ziprecruiter to augment our staffing strategy, the more options we have in our sourcing toolkit the more likely we will get staffed.

    ZipRecruiter is much more able to support a busy executive trying to fill a position. The candidates are well-screened, and it is easy to communicate with them throughout the hiring process due to the ZipRecruiter tools.

    ZipRecruiter falls after LinkedIn and Indeed. I think their candidate quality, filtering, and overall ease of use are better than recruiters' platforms.

    It is better than the more expensive tools like Dice and Ladders. Indeed does offer the option to post nationwide as with ZipRecruiter you have to have a city state to post in and only mark the job remote.

    ZipRecruiter is great for regular, full-time positions, especially the higher paying salaried positions. I would not recommend ZipRecruiter for the highest turnover positions that are mostly part time because of the price to post on ZipRecruiter. Let me mention, I am only posting hospitality facility positions

    Pros
    ZipRecruiter
    • They notify us when there are new candidates that match our requirements
    • They give us the links of the candidates online networks, so it's all right in front of us
    • They have a great messages center, that makes it easy for me to access and reference when needed.

    Cons
    ZipRecruiter
    • Better electronic screening of applicants prior to allowing them to apply for a job (i.e. when licenses are required)
    • When cancelling they require that you call them on the phone (you can't cancel online)
    • I'd prefer that subscriptions were more targeted to my hiring needs

    Results. The bottom line is the results we are getting. We are seeing not only quality applications, but quality hires that can directly be tied to our use of ZipRecruiter. The ROI is second to none - a simple and easy to use tool that is driving healthcare professionals to my various clients.

    ZipRecruiter is very user-friendly and is extremely reliable when searching for new talent. There are numerous features to help you when you have questions about a posting or your profile. The filtering process is awesome and you have so many ways to find the right talent with the screening questions provided by ZipRecruiter.

    Have not had to utilize support recently, but in past instances they have reached out within 12 hours to help rectify any problems or answer any questions about features and functionality. The only issue I ever had with them was trying to clarify, when they previously advertised that they posted on 200+ job boards, if that meant that your job would for sure be posted on each job board. Turns out, by the way, that they only guarantee distribution, not posting

    ZipRecruiter
    • ZipRecruiter helped us to reaching our hiring goals for 2018. We have been able to source, exempt and non-exempt candidates, in a timely fashion for our roles in the NY Metro area.
    • From a cost perspective, ZipRecruiter is more affordable than others that we have used in the past. In the end the results speak for themselves and we have had better success with Zip than other job boards we have used in the past.
