We received less than 10 applicants in the same timeframe we ran a concurrent job post on Indeed.com. We received over 350 applicants through Indeed. Needless to say, I know where I'll be spending our money the next time we need to hire. It won't be on Monster.com.

This hiring service was the poorest quality service we used on a recent recruitment campaign. I was fed CVs from applicants who were in a completely different sector than that of the position and did not gain a single lead from two 30-day campaigns. What a colossal waste of money. Never use this service.
By Cathal
None of the applicants met the clearly stated necessary skills and requirements. Waste of money. Very shallow talent pool for our needs.
By Tami
Did not get many applicants, only received 3. Of which none where qualified. Used the same wording in indeed and received over 50 qualified candidates.
By Hugo
has to be the worst job search engine on the market
By Brett
I got maybe one applicant and it was garbage.
By Charles
I paid $399 to Monster.com to post an employment ad. Not only did I get very few resumes but not a single one was related to the job that I posted. I emailed my "account executive" or whatever he was called and asked if they had a guarantee, and that I wasn't getting candidates that were remotely qualified for the job posted - and I got no response. I will never, ever use Monster again, nor will I recommend Monster to any of my business colleagues.
