Glassdoor.com vs. Snagajob (Snag)

It really depends on if you're an employee or an employer. If you're someone who is looking to research a company you're considering joining then absolutely Glassdoor.com is an important data point research. I stress "data point" - the information posted about employers should be taken with the proverbial grain of salt. Most of the negative comments are written by disgruntled employees with an axe to grind. If you're an employer, beyond keeping tabs on your reputation on Glassdoor.com, there's not much to recommend.

Peoplematter is a great solution for companies who want to save time and money on the onboarding process. It is a very simple solution that will really aid your managers and HR with their daily duties. It provides relief by ensuring the W4 and I9 are filled out accurately, plus additional onboarding items. It integrates with job boards making posting jobs a breeze. It has great reporting functions to help track where your new hires are coming from, turnover, assessments scores, etc. Honestly, I feel PeopleMatter's Price Point makes this product valuable to any size company or business

• The assessments in the Hire module allow managers and supervisors to choose from applicants who are suited for our line of work.
• The onboarding process allows our company to avoid costly printing of hiring packets.
• The Learn module allows us to reach all of our associates with the same material at one time, which allows consistency throughout our stores.

• Annoying e mail notifications, 3 or 4 per day.
• Bad location targeting. Sometimes I get job offers from other countries.
• Mobile app not very user friendly.

• Messaging candidates options are limited. There are pre-written questions if you want to use them, but I cannot change them or figure out how to change them.
• To schedule an interview I only have 140 characters to leave a note to the candidate.
• The "My Team" features are not useful to my company at all.
• There used to be a search candidate function, but it was limited. It has been removed from the site.

I see no reason at this time to change how we would continue to work with Glassdoor.com as a go-to resource for our hiring needs. As we look to hire in the future we will certainly return to Glassdoor.com as well as recommend Glassdoor.com to colleagues and anyone we know who is looking for a platform that they can look to for reliable employee resourcing.

I would definitely renew our use of PeopleMatter, because it would not be beneficial or cost effective for us to go back to doing it in house. If they are willing to listen to our needs and wants and update the program for the better on a regular basis why would you. I feel like we got in on the ground floor and we are evolving with them

Glassdoor.com has proven to be an incredibly user-friendly platform that is both intuitive and easy to navigate. I find the overall functionality to be straightforward, which makes it simple to learn and use effectively, even for those who may not be very tech-savvy. I have encountered no difficulties when it comes to posting open positions, enhancing visibility through boosts, or reviewing and managing applicants. Everything is clearly laid out, making the entire process efficient and seamless.

It's a cleanly designed and easy to use website.

Support is generally excellent, but there can be a fair amount of bureaucracy at times for requests. The support people are very knowledgeable of the platform, but sales seem to regurgitate the same info when trying to negotiate or upsell a client. Technical issues are rare and usually solved quickly.

The account reps were easily reachable. I have made different types of recommendation, especially about the communication part. There are videos and a help center with fairly quick response times. I can easily update my career site, and they even have a text to hire option. I have not used that yet, but we are discussing it.

I would just say make sure you really think about how you are setting up the product. Are you using the roles correctly? Can we automate any processes

To be honest, we use both LinkedIn Jobs and [Glassdoor.com] to make sure we get the largest number of quality candidates quickly. LinkedIn Jobs allows us to learn more about the applicants before we ever speak to them, but Glassdoor allows candidates to learn more about us before they ever apply. Both boards have their complementary benefits and downsides, so it's a good idea to combine them if your organization can afford it.

PeopleMatter was selected primarily to support the store environment, and it does an excellent job in that space. It was chosen over other vendors for its easy to use, intuitive interface that really meets the needs of the manager in a retail store. The system helps managers select the best talent that has completed a validated assessment, improving the quality of talent in our stores.

• Average time to hire a candidate is shorter on Glassdoor when compared to our primary platform.
• Overall employee sentiment has gone up since we started using Glassdoor and came to know what are the pain points of our employees. It was an eye-opener and since then we made many changes which led to employee satisfaction.
• Organization image has improved as we always try to take the feedback constructively and actively try to acknowledge and respond to the reviews.

• The ROI on using PeopleMatter is amazing when I consider the amount of paper saved, time saved, and not to mention the fact that using these services prevented our company from having to hire an assistant to help take care of the large amounts of paper work that come through our office.
