Interface is pretty clean, UI SEEMS to be pretty intuitive; didn't get much of a chance to use it though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Went through a lot of verification and added a lot of personal/business information (including credit card info) to create the account and post one job. Applicants are coming in (which is a HUGE gamble, because applicant quality is an issue, and people will just lie to get through screener questions). In the middle of reviewing, account was deactivated for no reason. Reached out, didn't get a reason, just that they want all business/entity information AGAIN. Huge pain, waste of time, and causes lack of trust because now there are two applicants (or more now, who knows) waiting there for a response from our side and will think it's our fault.
They had NO issues charging me to reveal applicants (granted, these were the first time credits provided), they did not say before hand that there was some additional verification (since we verified everything beforehand?) so there was no warning this was coming. So simply put, they had no problem taking credit/money, collecting all of our info, but with no warning they are ok with disabling an account in the middle of hiring and reviewing applicants.

SimplyHired provides a number of filters on their web application/website like the Date Added filter, where we can filter jobs with the date added and Job Type, whether it is a full time, part-time or internship position, A Salary filter as per your expectations of salary and location distance filter for your appropriate location. Overall my experience with SimplyHired is awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not the most I dislike. But if a Past 3 days filter will be there it will be the best of best Job Search platform among all the current Job Search platforms. Past 3 days filter is for Jobs posted in the past three days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing. My account was activated, verified and then deactivated without explanation within 72 hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They require a lot of person information in order to make an account. They claim it's to verify you are a real organization. I did all of this, got verified, then my account was deactivated without any reason or explanation. I emailed their customer service with the problem and they didn't reply. I heard they charge you for revealing people who want to apply...kind of like a dating site. What a joke. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing actually. For the price point, some of the candidates weren't matched appropriately to the posting details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very poor customer service. The high price point to reveal candidates that are not guaranteed to even respond back or show up for an interview, let alone become an employee. My account was closed out of the blue while I was in the middle of interviewing candidates. When I contacted support, it took them days to respond and state, "We have reviewed your account and have found it to be unsuitable for Simply Hired. Please note that this is a final decision. No further action is required on your part and no additional details regarding this decision will be provided. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause." I had verified all identity requirements which were accepted and didn't violate any terms and after inputting credit card details to reveal candidates for $35 each, they terminated my account without warning or explanation the next day, in very poor taste. There's way better and cheaper job and recruiting sites out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The screening of the candidates is impressive with the Simplyhired platform.
The scheduling of video interviews is a plus point on this platform.
The job postings and updates to the description are quick and effortless.
Simplyhired is famous for finding local talent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Simplyhired needs to add quick tips for the aspiring candidates to resolve the issues while searching for a job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I posted 10 jobs for free and I actually got candidates for some of the jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SimplyHired was bought out by Indeed and since then they have ceased all support for the platform. No one responds to my messages, there is no paid plan, the user permissions kept glitching out. It's a mess. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great search functions and filtering to find what you are looking for. It is a user friendly interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The results are sometimes dated. Too often, I find job postings from 8 or 9 months ago that are already filled. In the highly competitive job market, I need results that have been posted in the last few hours and days, not weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have used the website for both a personal job search, as well as previously posted for an administrative assistant position that I needed to fill at a previous employer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that it's free to use of employees and that it's easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that many jobs are pulled within SimplyHired's website. It saves sometime from being linked to an external site. It seems like they keep the site updated often. They have a salary calculator which is very beneficial. I use the app the most, and love the quick apply feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With any job search site, there are going to be some scam jobs. I've only seen a couple, but wish there was a better way to flag these positions or to have them restricted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We saw inquiries and overall performance slowly trend down over the last couple of years for our recruiting needs. Our analytics seemed to drop off as more and more platforms began offering the same type of packages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being able to optimize budgets is always a plus. Changing around budgets throughout the month, based on performance, is a big selling point in our industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
