A Useless Job Search Site
December 21, 2024

Even after I've saved my preferences, Careerbuilder keeps sending job notices in the North Highlands area which is two hours away from where I live. I've already uploaded my resume, but it keeps telling me to build my resume. I attempt to type in my new e-mail but it keeps saving my old e-mail. This is annoying.

I kept getting fake job offers
I finally called one out as a scam. He threatened me and said he had my address and was coming to my house! Career builder does nothing about it. Remove your resume now!

Nothing but scams!
December 14, 2023

Just don't use this site. The amount of scam texts, emails and phone calls for fake jobs is insane. Ever since I put my information on this website, it's been several a day. Save yourself the headache.

THE WORST!
July 12, 2023

This site is a breeding ground for scammers. You will be bombarded with text, emails, etc from bogus "jobs". I have applied to over a 100 jobs on this site and not 1 legit business or employer has contacted me. Career Builder seems to be doing nothing at all to protect the users of this site. You will frequently receive emails full of grammatical errors, request for pics of your drivers license, etc. It is unfortunate people cant even seek work without being made victims of scams like these. The scammers are dumb to say the least because why target people who 9 out of 10 are looking for work because they have no money.

Terrible service
August 11, 2023

One of the worst services ever. Career Builder and Monster.com might be the worst companies ever when it comes to customer support, or to anything, really. Terrible employee conduct, rude and short tempered, never get anything done, and I honestly do not understand how these companies make money. Either way, we moved away from them before they got a chance to scam us. I would advise you to be careful out there.

I wish I would have checked these reviews before signing a contract with CareerBuilder. If I could give less than one star, I would.

To start with the agent, I signed up with immediately stopped responding to me. I had to trace down and track down managers who were unresponsive and didn't call me back. I finally came upon someone who tried to help me, but I got very minimal traction from this platform. The service was terrible and it was a complete waste, frustration and loss.

I've been trying to dispute the charges and to no avail. I would stay away from this platform because they do not really care about their customers.

Worst ever
September 4, 2023

Career Builder is SELLING your information.
In three days I've had 6 scams.
Contacted them, thru email. They take no responsibility, just say, yeah they use our logo.

Seriously, it's hard enough finding a job. Now MY job is to weed out Career Builder scams

SCAM SITE
February 29, 2024

Look at all the negative reviews for this so called Job site. Add me to the list. I get several emails and texts a day, all very suspicious. It's hard to even delete your resume, as well as deleting your account. They are so shady. DO NOT TRUST THEM. I'm reporting them to the BBB. Their reviews on the BBB speak for themselves. Disgusting breeding ground for foreign scammers. Be warned.

My experience was really bad and when I asked them to make it right they said two times that they would give me a discount off future products (not going to buy any more services!). I did not get the services I paid for and was stuck in a contract for 3 months.

Waste of emails from them
September 28, 2023

I am really not happy with Career Builders. 1) They send you jobs that have nothing to do with your resume or skill sets. 2) When you do click on something of interest, it takes you to another internet employment site that is collecting your information by asking for your email address and then they start sending you ALOT of junk emails. What a waste.
