It never hurts to try

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I've made sundry inquiries or rather offers but have no takes at this point. I've a negative experience with these kind of services - for instance Task Rabbit. I'd recommend giving this one a try, but be wary of bait and switch setups - with leads costing you while bringing you no profitable ventures.

Pros

  • Decent interface
  • Clear posting of critical info
  • Clear search criteria

Cons

  • No relevant gigs for a designer
  • Would prefer a 'dark mode' interface option
  • Resume should complete standard questions.

For Onboarding, Snagajob is your choice.

Pros

  • Easy to use on-boarding for managers as well as employees.
  • They work with you on the integration to your HR system & will try to create custom fields to meet your needs.

Cons

  • Snag customer support could be faster. I do not like that it is a general email to email your concern & have a response in more than 24 hours.
  • Admin should have access to undo terminated employees.

Return on Investment

  • I wouldn't say it affects our business objective because we just use it for onboarding; however, their employee assessments are pretty accurate on who is a good candidate or not.

Snag your next employee with Snag

Pros

  • Notifications when applicants apply.
  • Ease of the job posting process.
  • Ease of making changes to my posting.

Cons

  • 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.

Return on Investment

  • I get my money's worth with Snag. Postings are a fair price.
  • I get really responsive applicants from Snag.

Hiring is a Snag with Snag

Pros

  • Storage of hiring documentation.
  • Uploading of training documentation and progress meter.
  • E-verify and other legal documentation reminders.

Cons

  • Can have a better User interface.
  • More/different levels of personality tests, based on the skills required for a position.
  • More user control to hide/view documentation available to users.

Return on Investment

  • We have reduced the followups with hiring almost by 90%.
  • With reduced follow-ups, we don't have to have multiple people wasting their time on making sure that all hires have completed the required documentation.
