We can manage the platform with ease. It is very easy to make and manage multiple listings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if the listings lived in perpetuity. After they expire we have to relist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The mission of Idealist ensures that the posters and the seekers are aligned with a mission to make the world better. Essentially, this is a job/internship/volunteer finding site for organizations wanting to improve society. It has a clean interface and is very intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After posting several jobs on the site, I do not get comparable traction as compared to main stream job postin sites. I think they need more marketing to promote the site and increase their client base. They do post how many people, jobs, and opportunities are currently available and the numbers sound like a lot, but is relatively low. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used Idealist to look for volunteer work , I found the website very helpful and rich in resources , it matches volunteers and organizations worldwide. I used to be a volunteer at Amnesty international , I like volunteer work and I use Idealist to find organization that need volunteers in my area or virtual volunteers and can benefit from my skills . The platform is very easy to use , in addition of volunteering opportunities, there is more than 5000 jobs to apply to and hundreds of internships available.

While it is free for users Idealistic charges organization to post jobs on the site , a review of pricing may be needed . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love this page because it allows me to request those young people who are just graduated and have all their potential to develop it in the company, it also allows me to visualize the courses and opportunities that are presented around the world in a simple and fast way.

The page is not very popular for students, it would be good to give more publicity to the page to increase its followers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The website is useful for posting and searching for job and volunteer opportunities. I liked how there is a salary option that one can view how much one would get paid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

From a posting standpoint, at the time, internships could be posted for free, but paid positions had to be paid for. I'm not sure if that has changed since 2010, but from a small non-profit organization, paying for a job posting wasn't something we could do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Idealist is a database focused on opportunities to make a difference in the world and to connect the seekers (idealists) focused on such opportunities. I like the simplicity of the website, the search filters, and the various resources available to volunteers and grad school students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have not come across any dislikes with the site. Initially, had a challenge with registering several years ago, as a representative stated that my EIN was not registering with their database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing I dislike, although I would like to see a way to better connect with diverse applicant pools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Idealist always hires some of intelligent, smartest people in the world. It is a perfect non profit organization where people are outstanding and hard working. You will get a lots of freedom to be productive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of technical direction is one of the cons if Idealist. Surprisingly, work was unfulfilling. Also, they should care on their customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
