posting got messy

The first thing I noticed was how many adverts the site pushed into the search results, so the candidates I wanted were sometimes buried further down. I've used it for years so I know the layout well. Posting a new vacancy took a bit longer than it used to, and one of my adverts was rejected for a formatting issue I had to sort out. Candidates still come in, just not quite as fast as I'd like.

the candidate search is handy

I purchased a candidate search package to find someone for a part-time admin post, and it did the job. The results were laid out clearly and I could save profiles to come back to later. Contacting people through the platform was straightforward and the replies came through promptly.

far more useful than the free boards

Compared with the free job boards I'd been using, this is a good deal more focused, and I didn't have to wade through pages of nonsense to find anything relevant. I was a little sceptical about paying for the listings but it's been worth it. The search filters are sensible and the site is straightforward to navigate, which I appreciated.

Better than the old agency

Compared with the agency we used before, this is much quicker to get a vacancy live. The advert went up within the hour and applications started coming in that evening. Easy to edit on my phone between jobs too.

Sound and easy to use

I would say this is a sound service for anyone looking for a new position. The search filters are easy to follow and the listings I was shown were relevant to my experience. Good value for what it offers.

Mostly good but slow to reply

To be honest the site works well and the advert was live within the hour, which I was pleased with. My only complaint is that the support team took nearly three days to reply to a question about editing the closing date. It was a small matter in the end, though I did have to chase it. Otherwise I would be happy to use it again for another vacancy.

Needed a job for the summer

Needed a summer job so I signed up to get alerts for bar and retail work. Got a text when something came up and the apply link took me straight to the form. Pretty handy, tbh.

better than the agency route

Compared with paying an agency a percentage of salary, this is a lot cheaper for filling roles that are not senior. I have used it for a few hires over the years. The one small annoyance is that the candidate database can be slow to load at busy times. Otherwise the search and messaging work fine and I've had good applicants through it.

got a job off it

Found the job I'm in now on here, which was the bit that mattered. Easy to set up on the app and the alerts actually came through on time. Nothing to moan about really.

used it for every hire

I've been posting adverts on the recruiter side for about eight years now. Last spring I bought a multi-post package for a warehouse supervisor role and it went live on the main boards within the hour. Candidates came in steadily and the applicant tracking is clear enough that I can keep track of everyone without a spreadsheet.

Good but the sign up was a bit long

Would use it again, the job alerts work well and I got a couple of interviews from it. Signing up took longer than I'd like because it kept asking the same things twice. Once I was in the search was easy enough and the listings were relevant.

First time using it and not bad

First thing I noticed was how quickly the job alerts started landing in my inbox after I set up my profile, which was honestly a relief. I'd been on other sites for weeks with nothing useful coming through. Applying was simple too, just a couple of taps on my phone and I was done for the day.

Needed to fill a post

We needed to fill a warehouse supervisor post quickly after the last one left with no notice. I wanted something that wouldn't cost the earth compared to an agency, and the price for a single advert was reasonable for what we got. Applications came in within two days and we shortlisted from them without any fuss. Good value for a small firm like ours.

needed to fill a role fast

Needed to fill a role quickly after someone handed in their notice. Posted the advert in the morning and had a shortlist by Friday. Simple enough to do on the laptop.

Needed something quick

Needed a new job fast after my last place closed down so I went looking straight away. The search pulled up loads of local stuff and the apply button worked first time. Got a reply from one of the employers the next morning.

Better than the free sites

Compared to the free job boards this is miles better for finding stuff. Got a call back from an agency within a day. Dead easy to use on my phone too, no faff.

CV upload that worked

Uploaded my CV and it filled in most of my profile straight away, which saved me loads of typing on my phone. Got my first alert the same evening. Pretty good for a free-ish account.

First time and a bit clunky

Signed up to post a job for the first time and the process was a bit clunky. The sign up asked for a lot of details before I could see the packages, and I had to go back twice to find the right option. Once the advert was live it attracted applicants without any trouble.

Great for finding work

Signed up and got set up in minutes, and the alerts have been spot on for the sort of work I want. Got an interview within a week. Would use again.
