## Reviews

### "Ziprecruiter needs maintenance\!\!" — 3.0/5

> **Tavoni** | *3 August 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how beginner-friendly it is and how simple it is to navigate the website. It has always done well\!
> 
> **Cons**: It has become quite buggy and spam-filled recently. I feel it doesn't give you legitimate job leads as it once did.
> 
> Overall, my experience has been somewhat good. I would say the website does need some work done to update it and give legitimate job leads.

### "HR Director Non-Profit insight into Zip Recruiter" — 4.0/5

> **Deborah** | *4 August 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have had good experiences with customer support and is it very easy to use.  The recruitment process can be quick when the candidates match the job opening that you are seeking. The value for the cost is variable depending on what positions a company is hiring other that, I find the performance and speed of the site to be better than most other reccruitment sites. Once resumes are recieved, it is fairly easy to manage. Once you hire, the employee management tools are easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: The pricing is high for small businesses or non profits. Value is there but can be a struggle to justify the ROI when you are recruiting for high turnover industries or entry level staff.
> 
> Overall I would recommend that if you are looking for line staff the AI works well, however for more detailed or obscure job titles that you will need to ask for more control of the AI features.  It is expensive but can be worth it for the right organization. The customer service is excellent and very responsive.

### "Good Platform Experience, Disappointing Hiring Results" — 2.0/5

> **Ashley** | *10 June 2026* | Maritime | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ZipRecruiter is easy to use and makes it simple to get a job posting in front of a large audience. I appreciated the straightforward setup process, user-friendly dashboard, and the ability to manage applicants and communications in one place. The platform also generated a high volume of applicants relatively quickly.&#10;&#10;Pros: Easy to use, quick job posting setup, broad candidate reach, centralized applicant management, and high application volume.
> 
> **Cons**: Compared to competitors, our experience with ZipRecruiter was disappointing. Poor candidate matching, low applicant quality, and limited value for the cost. For the cost of the platform and the time investment required to manage postings and review applicants, we did not see a sufficient return on investment.&#10;&#10;Cons: Candidate matching was not accurate, applicant quality was low for our needs, and the platform did not provide sufficient value relative to the cost.

I appreciated the straightforward setup process, user-friendly dashboard, and the ability to manage applicants and communications in one place. The platform also generated a high volume of applicants relatively quickly.&#10;&#10;Unfortunately, the quality of candidates did not meet our expectations. The candidate matches suggested by the platform were often unrelated to the qualifications and experience required for our position. While we received several applications, none were strong enough to warrant an interview.&#10;&#10;For the amount of time spent reviewing applicants and the overall cost of the platform, the return on investment was disappointing. Although ZipRecruiter may be a good option for employers seeking applicant volume, our experience was that quantity did not translate into quality. We ultimately found other recruiting platforms to be more effective at delivering qualified candidates for professional-level positions.
