“I have an account with them”

Huginn A.
6/6/24

I have an account with this job platform and I am glad that I made it since the last job I landed was from here. I don't know about the other countries, but in the Netherlands this platform is getting quite popular. Many companies are posting their job calls here. Hence, a lot of job opportunities. It is good that you can adjust your settings and I receive regular emails about new job calls for the positions I have set. You never know when a good and better opportunity will come.

Anytime I had an interview set up by ZipRecruiter by the time I got there the position already been filled and ZipRecruiter did not let me know that so I wasted my time gas energy. And felt even more discouraged so thanks to recruiter! CG

I wanted to find the affiliate link to refer a colleague to zip recruiter and couldn't find it on the website. So I used live chat for help and Rebecca pointed me to it in an instant. Great customer service. I wish I had more people to hire right now so I could use the service again.

I struggled to post a job because I hadn't set up my account correctly. I accessed the on-line chat, spoke to Katie who was very responsive and professional and even sent me a link to help me get the most out of my job post. I felt very well looked after and have a call set up with the team to fix the account later today. Thanks Katie!

Tatianna answered my question quickly and showed me some additional options. I am glad for the assistance. I am pleased at the traffic we have had on our posting and the number of applicants. I like that I can review resumes and message applicants.

Thank you DeJuan for your unending patience with my unending questions... lol
You were a delight to speak with and "thank you" for helping me clear up my email address problem and teach me how to use the resume search... I'm psyched to add that to my sourcing!

Tanya O'Toole was my representative. I had a few basic questions on navigating through applicants. Tanya was extremely helpful and a pure delight to speak with on the phone. Tanya gave some direction and explanation to my question. Couldn't be happier with the level of customer service I received from her. I may just send her an invitation to apply for my customer service position. Tanya is definitely top notch.

We have used Ziprecruiter for years, so we are puzzled as to why after 3 weeks, we only recd 18 resumes when, in the past, we received hundreds. The salesperson said that the type of ad we place, ie $250 w a small discount usually runs 6 months. We only placed an ad for one month in the past with great results. Then, we were told to switch the location from Decatur, GA to Atlanta and change the job title from Legal Assistant/Paralegal to just Legal Assistant. Finally, we told to pay for a job boost, which is a $100 plus. Yet, the initial days when we were at the top of the search engine, we recd just a couple resumes. Do not use Ziprecruiter right now. If anyone can share, why we are getting terrible results, please let me know.

Tip for consumers:
I would wait to use not sure what the issue is now.

My customer service agent, Tatianna, was quick, effective and friendly. I called as I was having trouble accessing my account. Turns out, I had two accounts and was trying to log in to the wrong one. After five minutes, I had it sorted and was able to continue with my day! Thanks!

Somehow my add to hire for my business was taken down without my permission only a week after my purchase from Zip Recruiter. She empathized with me and she help me put my adds back in the system. She then told me that she would create a case for me to let me know what happen. Awesome Job! I was very upset and she made me feel that she felt my pain knowing I was opening my new business soon.

I recently posted a position on the Ziprecruiter site and was experiencing issues getting signed back in. I has previously utilized the site as a job seeker and was concerned that the issue may be due to having both an employer and job seeker site. I chatted with Robi who was quick to respond and eager to assist me resolve my issue.
Robi quickly identified the issue as a "user" error. LOL Robi was able to correct my error and I was back on the site and reviewing the candidate resumes in a matter of a few minutes. Would definitely recommend ziprecruiter to employers and job seekers.

Brittany G assisted me with posting a job that I prematurely closed and she advised me that instead of reposting, I should duplicate the job and then post it so that it is a new posting instead of dated back when the job was posted the very first time. She explained that this would put the ad as up front as possible. That's customer service! Thanks!

I applied to a job that was pretty much written for my education and experience. Ziprecruiter sent me emails saying I was the 9th to apply and that my resume was reviewed 3 times but I was never contacted by the employer. I took it upon myself to contact the employer who said they never received my resume. They asked me to come in and hired me on the spot as I was exactly what they were looking.

Matthew S. – ZipRecruiter Rep

Hello LP B,

Thank you for your review as we do greatly appreciate your valuable feedback. We are very sorry to hear of any less than pleasant experience while utilizing ZipRecruiter for your job search.

ZipRecruiter is an online job search platform that helps employers and recruiters post their jobs and collect applications. We do our best to keep our job seekers informed regarding the status of their application on the website, however, we do not partake in the hiring process so we are unable to confirm who is responsible for reviewing the resumes within each company. For this same reason, we cannot confirm that the hiring managers will contact each candidate. I understand you were hired for this position and we are very happy to hear of this success.

Should we have the pleasure to assist you with your search again in the future, please feel welcome to reach out to our dedicated customer care team. You may email us at support@ziprecruiter.com with the subject line, "Tier Help" so myself or one of our other senior representatives receive your inquiry directly. I'd be more than happy to explain in detail, the application process as well as how we can help!

Thank you again, and we wish you the very best of luck with your new position!

Kind Regards,
Tier III Support

Just posted a job today. I was not getting the candidates I desired. I called Ziprecruiter for help and spoke to Maika. Maika was very helpful and professional. My job posting now looks like I know what I'm doing and all credit goes to Maika!

As a recuiter, I have to say this site is terrible compared to others I have used. The searches do not result is qualified candidates and the customer service is the worst. They do not help at all; just make excuses.

I had an issue with my password, so I did a live chat. Shawana was the person that assisted me. She was able to get my password reset. She was very pleasant through the entire chat and advised me when she sent an e-mail with the password reset. I appreciate her assistance!

Tara B. Took the time to show me how to get the most out of my advertising for an electrician. She took the time to show me how I could ask questions and weed out unfavorable candidates so as not to waste my time. She also showed me how to boost my traffic in several areas.
Very professional.

I had an issue logging in and needed to reset my password. My computer didn't like what I was doing. I called ZR and Tanya O'Toole was on point helping me clear my history and cache to reset my password. She knew exactly how to walk me through it! Thank you, Tanya! You are a master of customer service! This recruiter is very thankful!

Mayra represents the company with the highest standards. She was very helpful with clarifying all of my questions and concerns. She knows your product well and was very informative. She was able to walk me through re-activation process and was very patient in helping me through the process. She has great customer service skills.
