Decent job search app, I like the email updates about jobs I might be interested in. Unfortunately, I cannot filter search results to part time or full time. There's no way for me to make that a preference at all. As a disabled person, constantly getting emails and search results about jobs I physically cannot do gets discouraging. Even after using the app for over a month, it will not stop recommending me full time positions. Please fix this. It's such a simple mechanic.

Easy to use, and I love that the app tells me whenever an employer has viewed my application/resume. I also receive emailed job notifications (you don't have to use this feature, but I like it). You can save the jobs that you're interested in, and it saves a list of the jobs you have already applied for. You can filter your search by location and distance. The only option that I would like to see added to this app is the option to take different aptitude tests like some of the other apps offer.
This app is terrible. Most jobs shown are irrelevant (example, I never worked in the medical field and it shows me LPN positions as a great match, and also shows pizza delivery as a great match) , as well as not in the salary range I need. It also shows many jobs that are way beyond my skills. I have to waste way too much time removing unrelated jobs, which also reappear after I dismiss them. There are far better options out there than the irrelevance of this app.
This has been the most legitimate employment app I have used that has yielded results. What I like most is that you can "1-click" apply and move on to the next. They submit your resumé you have on file to the job poster and you're done. They also send you notifications when your application has been viewed. Update: This still the best employment app but keeps freezing after 5-10 minutes every time & have to restart it. This is frustrating when I find a great job to apply for and it freezes!!!
Ultimately frustrating, I think I've finally given up on this one. The app insists on showing me jobs from Dallas (I don't live there) and from years ago. I'm not sure if my field isn't available or if it's a bad matchup but I'm frustrated at the lack of recent and remote artistic jobs (of which many exist on other apps). Not for you if you do 3D modeling or anything digitally artistic
Can't change notification settings. You can go in and edit them as much as you want, but there is no save button. Also, after changing them, when you back out and go back in, they reset to the default of notifying you for everything. Ended up deleting the app cause I was getting alerts for potential listing matches daily without the ability to turn it off. I prefer to find the listings I want to apply to. I think a list or section that shows jobs they think are a good match would be great.
Very easy to use! This app is also very popular with employers so you can always be certain your resume will be looked at. Very easy to build a resume, with different skills/ schools/ job titles etc. populating in the entry box thingies (for lack of a better description at this time!) so you don't have to work as much thinking about what you're trying to input. Great app!
Extremely easy job searching platform to navigate. What I like most is the ability to have multiple avenues to update your personal information such as phone number, email etc. In case you switch phones and can't loginto your old email or have access to the old cell numbers that were attached to the account. A system that another app "Indeed" does not allow you to do, it forces you to make a new account, and even tech support can't assist you. Love the app! Keep up the good work!
So frustrating! They need to take some notes from indeed. No matter how many times I set my distance to 25 mi, I'm still getting stuff from over an hour away. I searched something for my son and now I'm getting a bunch of plumbing stuff. You can't filter it to say you don't want to see certain occupations or positions. overall just clunky and not user friendly. Could be great with some tweaking
HORRIBLE JOB RECOMMENDATIONS The app itself is okay. However, there seems to be no way to localize any job recommendations. My emails are flooded with jobs recommended in areas that I can not travel to. Feedback produced no positive response or change to the matter. Instead, you're given a very generic, go to your settings, and adjust. However, doing so only adjusts once you're actively searching. Not the actual email recommendations for your local area. A huge waste of time.
