ZipRecruiter Pricing

I like the idea that we could post a job and have candidates be already in e system assigned to our posting.

The candidates that were assigned to our post were not at all qualified and the ones that contacted us were all from foreign countries or had no related experience. Even if we specified that the applicant had to be close by in the same country.

Hi Lee Anne, Thank you for submitting this review and we would like to apologize for your experience in receiving qualified candidates as I know how important it is to make those hires as quickly as possible. Although our system does work to identify the best-matched candidates for your job, there are other tools that we encourage customers to take advantage of to help better their chances of...

The interface has everything you'd need and more. The price is based on time instead of per click so it's easier to budget. The syndication to popular email blasts gets great exposure.

The last job I posted got fewer applicants than Indeed captured in the same time period - with premium selected.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! --TC

I love how simple it is to use. If I'm looking for a sub-contractor or a temp employee, I can easily find on here. The software is easy and has like a messaging inbox where you keep track of your messages between candidates. The pricing is well fitting.

Some candidates' resumes are posted but they aren't available or they just recently found a job. I wish there was a way to see tht they hot hired from someone else so I don't waste my time reaching out.

Thank you for letting us be a part of your hiring journey, Stephania! We're so glad you've found the ZipRecruiter platform to be easy to use to post jobs and collect candidates. Best! -TC

It was extremely user friendly and flashy with it's design and layout. The customer advocates were knowledgeable and very quick to respond.

It was extremely expensive. Not only did you pay a regular fee you had to boost the posts so much that it was cost prohibitive and each conversation resulted in the advocate telling you to spend more money. When we were paying thousands and not receiving qualified candidates we pulled the plug.

Hi, Thanks for taking the time to review ZipRecruiter. We are sorry to hear you did not have a good experience using our service. The last thing we want is for you to feel pressured into purchasing add-ons such as Traffic boosts in order to have success on our platform. I apologize if this was the experience you had while with us. You should not need to spend more and more money to have success...

Easy to use, Support is great, cost of services is acceptable.

Sometimes there might be issues upon logging into the application yet this is rare to happen.

I enjoy ZipRecruiter because it allows an easy application process once you are an account holder. The 1-click apply is very easy to use and only in certain cases are there additional follow up questions. This platform is super efficient time wise and allows me an absurd amount of different job opportunities. I recommend this program in comparison to others like Indeed and UpWork considering the price of using this program is so far in my experience nothing. The profile is easy to set up, and in cases where I have applied to a job I have received an email or phone call from the company within hours.

Though there are few I would love to see more versatility in the "Job suggestions" area of the program. When you apply for a job or search a certain careers the suggestions seem to be very consistent and don't tend to range. For example when I searched a "Customer Service" position I found so many suggested jobs in just this specific field, so from then on I started just having to key in words to search...

Thank you for taking the time to share your great experience, Ayden. We appreciate your feedback and we are thrilled to hear of your success using our platform! ~DW

it’s easy to use and also less complex it makes a user’s day easy. It has its own dashboard which make a user easy to Annalise the number of jobs posted and the total number of candidates to whom job posting to is reached. Advantage is that as soon as the candidates apply for the job posting we can get the mail instantly. This is why i call this as the best software and the cost of the software is...

Some candidates who are not relevant to the job posting will apply for the job that’s the main disadvantage. When a candidate applies of the job position we will get a notification but certain candidates profile cannot be viewed.

The steps for posting ads are straightforward. Rating resumes makes it very easy to save and categorize for future reference.

When you go "Back" to previous page, you lose your place while reviewing resumes.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review of ZipRecruiter, Mary! Our team is always here and happy to help, 24/7, should you ever require any assistance with your employer account. :) --TC

Zip Recruiter gets you qualified candidates every time. Period. They post to multiple job boards for you outside of Zip Recruiter and you get what you pay for. Qualified candidates. You get assigned a Campaign Manager who works with you to get your job ad and location to where candidates are searching for them. You can create knock out questions on your ads so you don't get unqualified candidates...

I suppose the only con is that it is not cheap. When you run a campaign, you are given many options to the price best fits your needs. My industry is very competitive so I always campaign at a higher cost.

I loved it as a job poster - my boss had me utilize this to aid in sourcing candidates for the startup I was working for at the time. You got a ton of leads, they were very accurate, and the site itself was user friendly - you also were notified promptly and nothing went to Spam (I think there was a good value for the money versus LinkedIn Recruiter).

As a job seeker, you get a ton of irrelevant and automated postings. I know you can turn these off but they're very annoying, especially when they're totally off-base or below your requirements. It feels like you're being spammed.

Ziprecruiter is my go to Job Board as a Hiring Manager. Ziprecruiter not only has great affordable plans but they truly cast the widest net when it comes to applicants. Coming from a place where I was only budgeted for Indeed, Ziprecruiter has opened up doors by advertising to every board from Monster to Linkedin. It has truly been a game changer and we have seen numerous people come through our doors that have been sharp and well qualified individuals. Each applicant has their own story and we have met great employees through this software and that is because Ziprecruiter leaves no stone unturned. They really are the best contenders in the job seeing world!

The one issue I would say would be the "Quick Apply". From my experience, sometimes the quick apply is so easy for applicants it makes my job as a Hiring Manager a little tough. This is due to the fact that when an applicant is on a job application frenzy, they will apply for anything and everything meaning they do not necessarily remember applying/apply by mistake. This results in a lot of confusion and wasted time when reaching out to applicants. If there was maybe more of a screening process involved so the applicants are required to read and check what they're apply for, it'd make a huge difference!

Overall ZipRecruiter seems to be experiencing a resurgence in attracting high caliber applicants within the service industry from what I've seen overall in the last year. The database is another great tool that gives us access to candidates that we wouldn't get on other platforms such as Indeed. Not only that, but I feel it's a higher level of professional candidates across the board. The user interface is very easy to learn and you can customize alerts to your liking.

I felt for a while the site was a little dated, but it appears that they've modernized their look, user interface and are still able to attract top-notch talent. I think the value for service is greater when you're able to buy in larger quantities than on an individual basis, but that's the nature of the business.

My favorite thing about ZipRecruiter, which is a stretch, is how easy it is to sign up to the platform. My review is based from a candidate perspective, and not an employer perspective, but much beyond the ease of signing up, I don't enjoy the platform.

Everything else. Seriously, I wouldn't recommend this platform to any employer or candidate. - The emails seem scammy. As a candidate, I get about three emails a day all of which have the same jobs that they sent me yesterday. For some reason, those same jobs never get filled... weird, huh? Not to mention, in the email, they have random things capitalized (super scammy). - Low quality of jobs. If you're an employer, there are much better job sites out there that don't seem more approachable and better for placing talent into jobs. So all in all, move along to the next platform. Cough (Glassdoor) cough.

I really enjoyed the robust Network of companies that ZipRecruiter connected me with. Additionally, the accuracy and consistency in the zip recruiter matching between myself and actively recruiting companies was a pleasant surprise

The layout and look are slightly dated and cumbersome to manage. I've also found it difficult to return to previously viewed job openings once I had left that page if I forgot to add things to my favorites sometimes they would just be gone forever.

Thank you so much for sharing your valuable feedback and Zip experience, Brian! As always, we wish you the best of luck with your job search. --TC

I enjoyed using ZipRecruiter as a job-seeker, but NOT as a hiring Manager.

While it is straight forward and easy to use, there is not a wealth of quality candidates for our industry (Veterinary) out there, as the ZipRecruiter reps will try and make you believe. They give you irrelevant statistics as to how many 'qualified' job seekers they have looking for jobs like ours, and try to convince you to pay even more to really reel those people in. This comes with no real data to back up why it would be worth paying more, and no proof that doing such WOULD reel in better candidates. We have had MUCH better luck on Indeed for very little or no cost to us, while ZipRecruiter feels like a total rip off. We paid a few hundred bucks each month for very few candidates, and even less qualified ones. Not worth it.

Hello Christina, Thank you for taking the time to review ZipRecruiter, your feedback is important to us! We apologize that your latest experience with us was not a positive one.

Zip recruiter is the best job classified fsoftware. You just put in what your looking for and sign up for alerts and it sends you daily alerts. If you add your resume on it, all you have to do is apply with 1 click. Very easy to use.

I really didn't have anything that I did not like about zip recruiter. It has helped me so much to get clients to notice me and set up interviews. I love using it.

Thank you for your valuable feedback. If you'd like to share any ideas or have any questions, please reach out to us at support@ziprecruiter.com. We appreciate you! ~DW

It’s fairly easy to use for both employers searching for new hires and for potential employees looking for a new job. Lots of additional features but they all cost extra money.

It seems as though people choose to use the 1- Click Apply feature so you’ll end up with a ton of applications where a fraction are even qualified. They don’t have a small package designed for new/small business. It’s either 3 listings for $250 or 10 listings for $250...not necessarily budget friendly. Also, the candidates are better suited for professional/salaried positions, not temps or hourly.

Thank you for using and reviewing our service. We appreciate your business and feedback! ~DW

I love the user interface of the recruiter platform. You're able to visualize your candidates as well as label where they are in the recruiting process and take notes.

The cost is QUITE pricey compared to other options. I also don't like that they have an auto-renew on your credit card.

We appreciate your feedback, Sarah! Our Customer Care Team is available 24/7 by phone, chat, or email. Please reach out to us at any time for assistance with your account. We are always happy to help. Thank you for your business and have a great rest of your day. ~DW

- Less expensive alternative to Indeed - Seemed to offer a lot more organic visibility than other products we considered - Monthly vs. annual plan - Interface is easy to use - Quick turnaround on getting jobs up and posted

- We haven't seen very much traction with ZIpRecruiter - it still only represents 2-3% of overall inbound applications. We saw a significant decline in inbound applicants when we made the switch, so we added back in our prior platforms. - Customer service isn't the most knowledge and is more of a sales team

As a company, we needed to hire employees who had experience in our industry and we needed to hire quickly. I turned to ZipRecruiter for assisstance. At first, it was great. Customer service walked me through everything, made suggestions, helped to edit our ad and make it available to relevant areas and varying states. We were given several options as far as cost and we felt confident on the prospective employees we were hoping to recruit. At first glance, ZipRecruiter seemed to be a good route for finding employees.

When we were talking to the ZipRecruiter representative, he gave us many options on locations to post our ad, and varying costs of length of time it was going to be available. He was a salesman. He was trying to sell us on some grand plan that would span several regions, being able to post several jobs, and offer all these options. However, as a small company, we weren't looking for some novelty recruiting...

The price of this tool is much more reasonable for employers than other job boards!

It is extremely easy for candidates to apply. Even candidates who do not meet the qualifications, like having a Bachelor's degree, can apply to our jobs. There is a ton of sifting through applicants. I get one good application for every 30 job applications. Those odds are pretty poor. I bet it would be a better tool for lower income/educated candidates. It is difficult for multiple users to see where another recruiter left off. It's hard to tell who has been reached out to and who hasn't.

Hello Paige, We really do appreciate your feedback and I will submit your concerns about keeping track of other users and where they leave off when viewing candidates, to our product feedback team. That is a great idea! We are sorry to hear that you did not get a pool of qualified candidates during your time with us.

Cost. Until they doubled the cost this year.

Job ads are not getting circulated. Literally 1/10th what it used to be a year ago in the middle of the lockdown! And that was half what it was in 2019.

ZipRecruiter is easy to use and really helps our company target the right employees for the job. We have had almost no turnover using this software to find people to join our team. It is easy to use and is looked at by a talented pool of prospects.

Ziprecruiter comes a relatively expensive cost compared to other software that we have used (and continue to use). Indeed, for example, is free and provides us with decent results, though not on par with the quality that comes in from ZipRecruiter.

Hi Mary, We're so glad you had a good experience while using ZipRecruiter and that our platform was easy to use.

1 stop shop for job searches and candidates. Also to compare your company to others and see reviews of what each job task looks like. great to get information easily.

There are other platforms I like to use better. For example - LinkedIn is free and allows you to create a more extensive profile. I also like the layout much better.
