If I could give it a ZERO, I would! We post on Indeed. We dont post salary. SimplyHired scraped the listing and posted a salary of 80K! Now we are getting massive amount of interest and calls, but we are the ones looking bad since candidates feel we are bait and switching on them. WORST JOB BOARD ON THE INTERNET

Take it for what it is, a website where: 1) Recruiters post mostly fake jobs to feed their database with applicants to present to employers that are willing to pay a fee. 2) Where employers post jobs, not to hire at the time the job is posted, but to research the labor-pool, salary and experience levels, and if they are ready to hire, they may not disclose how little they are willing to pay. Your best bet as an applicant: Reply only to ads that are clear about compensation, where your research shows that the company really exists, and where they are offering compensation in line with their requirements. Stay away from the ads offering "From...", "Up to...", "Competitive...", and that go on for 10 pages of rhetoric intended to confuse, and attract applicants, under false pretenses. A real job, from a reputable employer, is Clear, Brief, gives you the company's name, and a clear numeric salary range. Ex: Smith Advertising seeks a Marketing Director, B.A. in Marketing Required, Master's a Plus, 5 Yrs. Exp. Required, $80K Yr." Notice... how brief and clear it is. Do take notice, that Simply Hired, gives a Salary Estimate for the positions advertised. Don't go by that. Go by what the employer states clearly in their job-description.

I clicked on a now hiring ad I saw on Facebook (my mistake I should've known better) and it didn't even have the job to apply for that they advertised and then all of a sudden i kept getting back to back non stop messages from them saying things like they deposited money into my paypal and to "click here" to go to my account. Another message saying the exact same thing only this time it was saying my Bank of America account and I don't bank with Bank of America and never have. I never clicked on anything but as soon as i hit the x to close it another one would pop up. This is a SCAM and even though I didn't click anything im feeling nervous cause I've been scammed in the past and I know how easily and quickly they can do it.

Horrible in that I wanted to advertise a position we have available in St. Louis. We pay exceptionally well and have been established for 40 years. We are the longest standing service of our type in the area. After taking the time to set up our ad we were emailed back and told that we were considered unsuitable to them. We were also told that is their definite answer and they plan to give us no reason as to why. This is really quite pathetic and I would recommend against any employer using them.

tried for days to contact them, how can these alleged companies be on the market. They must be reported, but wait company!!! i will put my lawyer on. all those who work with them should also be fined. No phone, no chat, welcome in 2021!!!

A scam company it makes me laugh that our legislators can’t get it together. STOP these companies. Who cares if it’s a thankless job! This is what government does best. THIS IS HOW U IMPROVE an economy !

It's a scam, stay away

Would give 0 stars if I could. My resumes are all on PDF format but kept getting error messages when I tried to attach files to my application ( which was for a job I would have truly loved). Very frustrating job board to use compared to Indeed, ZipRecuiter and others.
