Monster for EmployersReviews of hiring.monster.com

Don't get this platform unless you can spend big. Or if you're a specialized industry with a need for very specific skill sets. Paying for the basic package to start will give you a limited number of views and it makes you super cautious to even click on a resume, not knowing if Monsters "Power Resume Search" will actually give you what you ask for. You literally cannot apply the law of averages because you're simply limited in the number of candidates you can actually call. if you're a big agency who can negotiate unlimited view licenses, it's worth it. If not, save your money.

Sending applicants that live too far distance to our office.

You need to let us be able to sort candidates by Visa status

User experience hasn't changed in years as far as I see and quality of candidate for technical roles hasn't gotten any better either

I hate the 90's UI that you are still following up. Very less number of hires we got from Monster. I think you need to work on your policies as well.

none of the candidates that applied (which were few) could speak Spanish, which was a requirement of the vacancy

Their geographic regions are screwy, or they were for my area. I do not feel like they hit my target areas of potential hires to pull from.

I have advertised on a lot of sites, and this by far has been the least helpful. It also is the most expensive. I reached out to one the sales people to help us, and she tried her best to be helpful, but we did not find one good candidate. Our Corporate has stopped using Monster, and now I can see that it does not have useful candidates.
