Posted a job and received zero results. The free resume views that were included were not close to fitting qualifications for the job I was looking to fill. Very expensive recruiting tool.

It's not really help with recruiting I didn't even get any one .
By Monette
I basically just paid a bunch of money to put an ad on a website. I got only one application. I have paid a lot less on other sites and got over 100 applicants for the same job listing.
By Alyson
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.

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.
By Maggie
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.
By Jocelyn
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.
