Pros
CareerBuilder has amazing search features that allow you to save candidates and utilize notations for each candidate.
It always gives me what Im looking for and Im really amaze how this software exceed my expectations. A really useful software and its surely a great investment.
I loved the ability to search candidates and source to reach out to potential applicants.
Cons
Candidates do not always add their information to connect with them which makes it difficult to connect.
Compared to other job boards resumes tend to be outdated. Additionally, with the new update they recently rolled out, it is very hard to email more candidates than one at a time.
Before there was terrible glitches in the past and it's great to see that they are no longer affecting my job search.

CareerBuilder is a one stop shop for finding the right candidates

It helped us find the right candidates for every openings we have!

Pros

It has a huge amount of candidate pool, perfect for any job openings you have

CareerBuilder is expensive. Given the huge pool, it is still worth the spend

So far, so good!

Reviewed 6 years ago

So far, so good. Careerbuilder is one of the job boards we are currently using. So far, I'm finding lots of qualified candidates here.

Pros

Great interface and easy to use. It has a feature wherein you can create a template and save it so that on your job postings, you can simply use the saved templates. I love the idea that you can open each candidate that you sourced into different tabs-other job board doesn't have this feature. It would allow you to multi task and view all the candidates by simply changing tabs. Plus, it allows you to filter candidates using keywords - you can use boolean search, location-you can select a radius, duration or length of employment - so you can choose from entry level to expert, employment visa status - this will save you from contacting not qualified candidates, and many more.

Cons

Some of the candidates information are incomplete. Like visa status, target pay. I think it will be best if they have these as requirement to fill before a candidate can submit their resume. So that, it will allow the recruiters to contact the right candidates. They should maximize the good features.

Career builder has been an amazing engine with the interface so user friendly and never glitchy

Reviewed 7 years ago

this software has helped me find the right fit to many jobs. Jobs are also easy to post with the selection of templates which can be saved for future job postings and is also a very handy option. The search engine also helps me to narrow down my search with the specific set of filters they offer.

Pros

It is best for advertising and is also used by professionals of most skill sets so you get quite the amount of resume that you can work through to find the best fit. Also love the templates where you get to save templates for future use while posting jobs.

Cons

Candidates do not always add their information to connect with them which makes it difficult to connect. It would be great if contact information was mandatory for all applicants. Besides that I would say just a few bugs to fix and they could be top-notch.

This is a 10 rating software because of its functionality. Amazing!

Im a Recruiter and Career Builder is my Best Budd. I use it everyday to look for available candidates and it never let me down. It really helps me do my job. Thousands or even millions of people are using this software everyday around the world and it really do its job. It always gives me what Im looking for and Im really amaze how this software exceed my expectations. A really useful software and its surely a great investment.

Cons

Using Boolean commands to look for candidates is hard to master at first. It will really take time for you to master using the Boolean string but its surely worth it

CareerBuilder for Recruiters

Reviewed 4 years ago

Overall, CareerBuilder is a great tool for recruiters especially for finding pool of candidates for your requisitions.

Pros

I've been using CareerBuilder since I started my recruiting career and it helped me get a lot of pool candidates on the requisitions that I'm working on. I love its feature where you can filter your search for specific types of candidates that you're looking for.

Cons

What I don't like about the CareerBuilder feature is the filter for the location where you specifically put a 25-mile radius but still will give you certain candidates that are within 30-35 mile radius which makes me get some candidates who are not interested because of the location.
