Monster for EmployersReviews of hiring.monster.com

We did not get a *single* hit on Monster. Not one! What a waste of money. Zip Recruiter is the way to go! We've gotten 25 hits in 3 weeks and have filled 3 open positions with people who are completely qualified, with interviews scheduled all week for the rest. It may be worth noting that we are hiring for both skilled & entry-level blue collar positions. Note: I am completely unaffiliated from any company. I am HR for a small business who cannot really afford to shell out hundreds of dollars and not get anything in return. We were very disappointed in Monster.

Poor number of applicants, especially for the cost. I got more from free job postings. I hired an applicant who applied on Indeed and ZipRecruiter.

I specifically was looking for a licensed inspector and received ONLY random applicants looking for a job. I thought Monsters would be better than Craigslist. Not the case. To top it off Monsters cost more to place an ad! Never again.

I have been in business for 20 years and take my advise and don't spend your money on Monster

Can't link candidates to an ATS so that everything can be tracked in one place. Quality of candidates are not as strong as other sources. Have not hired anyone from Monster -- everyone has been from other sources. Expensive in comparison to better systems and sources. Reporting and stats are outdated and not very useful. I won't be using Monster again.

This will be the last time I use Monster, the response was poor, the quality was poor. Numerous other sites with identical postings were able to capture a much better audience and response.

the service did not match their claims.
