Overall Satisfaction with ZipRecruiter

We use ZipRecruiter to seek out qualified candidates for specialized positions in our organization. Because of it's popularity it makes it simple to post a position singularly and receive a good sized pool of talent. Other solutions, we feel, send too many "close" applicants and not as many whom check all the boxes.

Pros

  • Simple interface
  • Timely responses
  • verifiable candidates

Cons

  • perhaps a more streamlined alert email to their lists
  • avoid "apply on company site" requirements.
  • Keep applicants info on file for future opportunities and notify them when one comes up
  • Reduced time to hire by weeks
  • Reduced employee churn by 30%
Because of the careful vetting and filtering we have not had to review the usual hundreds of applicants. This has saved precious time and money in filling open slots in our roster.
Again, their consistent outreach and vetting process has dramatically improved our candidate search process.

Yes

Did ZipRecruiter live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of ZipRecruiter go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy ZipRecruiter again?

Yes

Ziprecruiter is highly suited for very specific, technical or skills-oriented positions where certifications and or experience is tantamount to a successful hire. examples include programmers, machinists, on line skills like SEO and Google certs, specific programs (Adobe suite, older technologies, specific SAAS requirements), and highly experienced C-suite candidates. Probably not as useful for low skill positions. Would not use to hire servers.
