    My overall experience regarding zip recruiter is fantastic and it helps me and many of my friends to find employees and employers as well

    Pros

    It's a very good option available for recruiting and when I started my long search for employment. I wanted to apply to as many positions I could that were within my area of interest in order to receive as many interviews as I could. During this process I discovered Ziprecruiter.

    Ziprecruiter made it fast and easy to apply to multiple positions within minutes. I applied to a couple of positions on the site and heard from a few of the employers. Whenever an employer contacted me to set up a phone screening or in person interview, I made an effort to read reviews of the company on sites like glassdoor and others that would come up when I googled “Company X reviews” before accepting the interview.
    I definitely do not think all companies that post jobs on Ziprecruiter have positive reviews and are for those types of positions, and I think there is a great number of companies on their that do.

    It’s a “resume scan and match” site. It really benefits employersas well as job candidates. You can“get hired through ZipRecruiter”.

    What happens is an employer posts a job posting through ZipRecruiter; ZipRecruiter acts as an intermediary, and posts the job posting to a lot of job sites.
    ZipRecruiter is best app for hiring?
    Zip Recruiter is good for posting positions,

    Cons

    "Less Reach for Certain Job Types 
    ZipRecruiter makes sense if you’re hiring for hourly positions or early career roles, but it doesn’t have the same reach for certain professional roles or higher-level professions.

    I found zip recruiter to be no different than any of the competition, but they seemed higher pressure - we had no successful hires from any extras purchased with Zip. I think it's good to post a job as many places as possible- but I think the extras Zip offers are not worth the money.

    Pros

    Zip recruiter likes to give you a one on one sales associate to help you set up your account and get your jobs posted, they will even help you create job posts, for an additional fee.

    Cons

    the high pressure where you always have to pay more for an add-on to feel like you have any chance of getting a new hire

    Good overall, I believe it is a good tool to feed to other sites. I like the system is well known as well and many candidates use it.

    Pros

    That it flows to all job posting pages and sends notices to the applicants of all job postings available for the role they are hiring for.

    Cons

    Not really anything, I think it is a good system. I know it is hard for the ad to go away once the job is filled.

    When posting jobs on ZipRecruiter, having a wide selection of candidates we can sort through and pick the most qualified is wonderful.

    Pros

    ZipRecruiter makes job postings very easy and quick. It is a great tool for getting job postings in our local area.

    Cons

    The membership fees are somewhat high for a smaller company like ours, but in today's market, we have very few options on where to post to get to the greatest number of applicants.
