Pros Very easy to navigate, very user friendly Cons The pages are too busy. Too much stuff on the page, its very distracting. Review Source KC Kaitlyn C. HR Director Restaurants Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to use, a few quirks" May 19, 2025 3.0 Pros It is super easy to use. I like that our job posts got seen by a ton of people without me having to do much. The candidate matches saved me a bunch of time too. Definitely helped cut down on the back and forth. Cons Some of the candidate matches felt random and not at all close to what we were looking for. Also got a lot of unqualified applications, which made it a bit hard to sort through at times. Review Source BH Bhumi H. Operations Specialist Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Zip Recruiter Review" July 7, 2025 5.0 I would highly recommend, it isn't a top preforming platform for no reason. Is efficient with job postings and engagement between internall and external. Helped to capture larger audience as mentioned before. Pros Very well know application I think Zip Recruiter is great at capturing a larger audience for job posting. Very active and positive engagement from all users. User friendly for candidates as well as internal teams. Cons Pricey, the name is worth the investment and helps with reaching a wider audience. Some minor glitches with edits to job postings. Support team helped with all out issues. Review Source BP Brittany P.

I don't have any complaints about the software. Pros I have ZipRecruiter to search for a job when I left my manufacturing job of three years. I have recently used it as well. I like how it shows me jobs close to me. Cons I cant really say anything bad about ZipRecruiter. Its set up to help people find jobs and to help employers find great candidates. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Software Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "ZipRecruite will definitely helps your job searching journey and bridge for your career" January 6, 2025 3.0 Helpful to find job opportunities for candidates and tools like resume building and job application analysis simplifies users effort. However, I would recommend ZipRecruiter is that it would be better if make the platform available for free or less cost because it will helps job seekers and companies make use of the platform for efficient job opportunities discovery. Pros Simplifies the all kind of jobs searching in one place. Free trail to try and use it for new users. Finds right and suitable jobs which relevant to the candidates requirement and JD. Multiple job boards are available. Cons Due to subscription cost, the platform really doesn't help to non salary users. Does not have complete job or company's information. Due to small period of trial and high cost subscription leads to loss of users and clients. User interface is not good. Not familiar with most of the people since there are lot of free, good and reliable job searching platform available in the online and market.

Switched from [Indeed for Employers](https://www.capterra.com/p/161381/Indeed/) Looking for a different pool of resumes to choose from. Review Source MS Michelle S.

Manager Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Zip recruiter app review " September 16, 2024 5.0 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. Switched from [LinkedIn Jobs](https://www.capterra.com/p/172060/LinkedIn-Jobs/) It is more ease to use and beneficial than previous one Review Source SW Stanton W.

I downloaded the application from the App Store on my iPhone. I followed the prompts and got nothing done. Not a friendly user platform. Pros I thought I was gonna like this platform in terms of seeking good employers. Couldn’t download my resume or reach out to prospective employers once the app was downloaded into my phone. Cons I am a job seeker. With an extensive résumé. Downloaded your app and could not login or change password. Not a very friendly user program. Review Source AL Ann L. Head of Marketing Consumer Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Hoping things have changed in the last couple years" July 15, 2025 3.0 Not a good experience for us. We did not get any response from our posting. BUT this was a few years ago, things may have changed now. Pros I like that they gave us a free trial offer to post a job listing. This gave me the opportunity to see if we really wanted to use it. Cons When I first used it, I would get so many people not respond because there was a lot of fake companies on there trying to recruit people. Everyone was leery of replying.

November 14, 2024 5.0 Since 2018, I have posted job openings on the Ziprecruiter website, and we are quite pleased with the quality of applicants we have discovered. With Ziprecruiter, the hiring procedure was quite easy.

March 23, 2025 3.0 I have received notification emails for ziprecruiter since applying once for a job on the site, but I usually do not respond to the sight of desireable jobs through the email notifications because I am expecting it to be spam.
