    Considered Both Products
    Indeed
    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    Indeed just has an incredibly larger audience to reach out to as well as such a simple and easier to use interface. I still use sites like ZipRecruiter and LinkedIn Jobs on the side, but I still find that the Indeed Hiring Platform is the most successful at finding me a large …

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    I personally prefer Indeed Hiring Platform over ZipRecruiter because I feel like I have more control over my budget and I feel the tech support is far superior as well. My Indeed Hiring Platform rep is terrific about showing me data about how my jobs are performing and is …

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    We chose Indeed Hiring Platform because it offers the largest amount of potential candidates. Briefly have tried other services such as ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, CareerBuilder, Monster, etc. but Indeed Hiring Platform has always given us the most applicants. There are a lot of …

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    I tried ZipRecruiter in my current position and prior positions and it doesn't compare to Indeed. Everyone is so familiar with Indeed and can depend on it. I tried ZipRecruiter for the free 1 week trial on posting an open position and we hardly received any candidates.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    We found the most success using Indeed, with more applications for our job postings.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    I chose Indeed Hiring Platform because it always delivers the quality of applicants for the jobs I need to fill. There is no guess work, and I know there is always a safety net with Indeed. I am able to source among 100's of applicants to fill the job i'm recruiting for.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    I have been to and coordinated many hiring events and job fairs over the years; this is the most efficient funnel I've been able to find. Over the course of 3 events, we interviewed over 200 people and made 65 hires, exceeding our goal.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    Many similarities, one difference would be that we do have more applicant flow from Indeed due to our agreement with Indeed.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    Indeed is easy to understand and more organized. More Indeed users respond as opposed to users on other platforms.
    Incentivized
    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    I think Indeed Hiring Platform heavily outweighs Zip and CareerBuilder in terms of quality of candidates and candidate reach. It is most similar to LinkedIn in terms of success with sourcing candidates. Still, as stated in the previous question, I believe LinkedIn is more …

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    The fact that I can schedule an event with the Indeed Hiring Platform is key for some of my roles. It allows us to get the Microchip name out there and we can meet with people from all walks of life and see how their personal experiences could benefit Microchip. I think it is …

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    With Indeed Hiring Platform we are more prepared for job fairs. The search option has not been that strong. Applicants are just not responding and some, when they do, ghost you. The other platforms are more like fishing nets whereas Indeed lets us bait easier.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    Indeed Hiring Platform offers many tools that other companies do not; Indeed is easier to utilize; has more prospective candidates in its databases and is a must-have tool for all recruiters, especially in high volume staffing. Utilizing Indeed on a consistent basis has helped …

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    Indeed definitely offers more qualified candidates that are ready to work, however, LinkedIn provides more fields to tailor searches to meet my needs.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    Indeed is the 800-pound gorilla and unfortunately, they've turned to attack the recruiting firms that historically supplied many job posts. The other platforms work with and some fully support smaller recruiting agencies like mine.

    Chose Indeed Hiring Platform
    indeed seems to be more user-friendly than Zip Recruiter and the customer service is more responsive when you have questions or concerns. I also like that indeed has the option of company branding which allows the candidate to review our company before applying. indeed also …

    Chose ZipRecruiter
    For most tasks I prefer Zip. I find that the inventory is very well rounded and I will get applicants on most skill sets in most locations. I also appreciate that the applicants generally are a match for the role, where other sites there can be a lot of "junk" profiles that …

    Chose ZipRecruiter
    I haven't chosen ZipRecruiter over the other products I use. I use them together to bring in as many applicants as possible. ZipRecruiter is priced well and provides support for multiple areas of business.

    Chose ZipRecruiter
    It is better than the more expensive tools like Dice and Ladders. Indeed does offer the option to post nationwide as with ZipRecruiter you have to have a city state to post in and only mark the job remote.

    ZipRecruiter is inferior when it comes to comparing it to Indeed. I use both because I want more platforms to advertise my job. However, I find myself obtaining more applicants from Indeed over ZipRecruiter. I don't count ZipRecruiter out, though, because every once in a while, …

    Oh, God, no match ziprec is a huge 0 no help, took my money, rep won’t return calls or emails, such a waste of time. At least with Indeed I got what I paid for. I thought I would try this since I kept hearing the ads but what a waste!
