"One-Click Apply Makes Job Hunting Fast and Effortless"
5/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

The feature I like best is the one click apply feature. It allows for me to go through and apply at several jobs throughout my day without spending a big chunk of my time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

I guess I would have to say the redundant emails. If no new jobs have entered the system, I feel getting an email each day or sometimes several times a day is simply annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable and Efficient Job Finder"
5/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I use ZipRecruiter for finding jobs quickly and efficiently. I find it very reliable for my job search needs. The best thing about ZipRecruiter is that it helps me find anything I need work-wise without needing to use any other apps, as it goes straight to job finders. I like the toolbar where I can find anything about jobs available on ZipRecruiter. The initial setup was very easy, as they ran the instructions for me, and I would recommend it a perfect 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Job Search and Applications with Helpful Filters"
4/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I find it easy to find jobs I'm interested in, such as Customer service and Graphic design. It's easy to apply for the jobs I find. I can add filters to adjust where I want to apply, how much to make annually, and if I want to be on-site or remote.

I find the performance to be fairly smooth. It's not perfect, but it does match my resume to a fair degree. Thankfully, it's free to use, so I don't feel it's necessary to pay for a subscription. I haven't needed to use any support, as I have not needed to. There is no AI to use on ZipRecruiter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

No AI to adjust your resume for the jobs you find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lightning-Fast Applications, Watch Out for Fake Posts"
5/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I love how ZipRecruiter has a huge volume of listings that are constantly updated. At the end of the day, I can do a quick search and find new openings. The One Click apply feature makes it easy to send out my resume, which is super convenient. I really like the alerts that notify me when employers interact with my application. The speed of ZipRecruiter is fantastic; I can apply to 20 jobs in the time it takes me to apply to 3 on other platforms. I appreciate not having to continuously reenter my work history or reupload my resume, unlike on other platforms. The initial setup was incredibly fast, it didn't even take longer than 2 minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

What I don't like is the fact that you have to be on the lookout for all the low-quality or misleading postings. Anything that is remote admin, data entry, and 'Recruiter' roles are most likely going to be fake or very low-effort listings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't let you update the status of your job application. Also, if I apply from my phone it doesn't let me change the location of where I want the job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how ZipRecruiter helps me find job opportunities based on location, states, and cities, which closely matches my career profile. I find it helpful that I can find jobs available in my city of residence or within a certain distance from my accommodation.

"Easy Job Search and One-Click Apply, But Listings and Notifications Need Refinement"
3/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

What I like most about ZipRecruiter is how streamlined and user-friendly it makes the entire job search process. The platform is easy to navigate, and the filters help me quickly narrow down opportunities by location, salary, experience level, and job type. I also appreciate that many of the job recommendations feel relevant, which saves me time compared to searching manually across multiple sites.

One of the most helpful features is the one-click apply option, since it lets me submit applications efficiently without having to re-enter the same information over and over. The job alerts are another big benefit because they keep me updated on new openings that match my interests and help me apply early. I also like being able to track my applications and see when employers have viewed them, which adds more transparency to the process. Overall, ZipRecruiter feels convenient, organized, and effective for finding quality job opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

What I dislike about ZipRecruiter is that some job listings can feel repetitive or outdated. I sometimes run into the same positions multiple times, or I’ll see roles that may no longer be available. I’ve also noticed that not every posting includes enough detail about salary, benefits, or company expectations, which makes it harder to judge whether an opportunity is a good fit before I apply.

Another downside is that while job alerts are helpful, they can send too many notifications or recommend positions that are only loosely related to my preferences. In some cases, it’s also difficult to tell how active an employer is, or whether they’re seriously reviewing applications. Overall, the platform is useful and convenient, but improving listing quality and recommendation accuracy would make the experience even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Straightforward and Efficient Job Application Tool, But No Job Offers Yet"
5/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I like how straightforward ZipRecruiter is; it's very quick and easy to apply to jobs. The one-click apply feature is the most straightforward option, and I appreciate the simple and straightforward layout of the website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

Honestly, the fact that I still haven't received or gotten a job if ZipRecruiter themselves would like to hire me. I am really good at sales, and also marketing, so if you would like to let them know, I'd appreciate that. I'm having a hard time uploading a new resume onto ZipRecruiter. That's really the only issue I've run into in the years of utilizing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ZipRecruiter updates have transformed my job search with AI capabilities. "
5/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

I like being able to search for jobs with the help of AI and ChatGPT using @ZipRecruiter. I also like the 'how strong a match I am' for different roles based on my skills and experience feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

It would be helpful to be able to see updates about the status of a job posted, employers could indicate if a job is still active, interviews are being conducted during a certain time range, if hiring is on-hold, or if job has been filled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ZipRecruiter’s Intuitive UI and Seamless AI Job Search"
5/5
What do you like best about ZipRecruiter?

One of my favorite upsides of ZipRecruiter is its ease and strong convenience of the UI, which can hardly ever be found on other popular job boards, including LinkedIn, Glassdoor, and Jobright.ai.

And all the features work seamlessly and reliably.

Intelligent AI job search functionality is also a great advantage that helps us find appropriate jobs within 30 mins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ZipRecruiter?

One thing I’d really like to see improved is the pricing. Compared with many ATS systems, if ZipRecruiter lowered its current pricing, it would likely attract more jobseekers and employers, and make the platform even more appealing to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
