Terrible job posting. Getting irrelevant resumes. No proper resume came through and got marketing calls from monster that they had better paid programs then what you have signed up for. Highly not rec... See more

Expensive, and I do not get many applications. Maybe 1 every other week. The applications that I do get are not qualified for the position. Example: I have a posting listed for a physician assistant or nurse practitioner. I have gotten 2 resumes from someone with no medical school training or medical office training.
paid $ 375 for 15-20 resume
that in indeed and in craigslist i'm getting x 10 times more!
and not paying penny
not recommended at all!
Paid $399 for 1 month of posting a job for candidates. Filled out all the particular skill sets I was in need of. Received a great deal of resumes, HOWEVER, approx. 95% of what I received did not meet the criteria I was looking for. I found my person by my professional references. I would not use Monster service again for my company.
I have used Monster for the last three openings over the last two years or so. Appreciate the ease in posting and the quality of candidates. Price seems fair, desired add-ons/features are more common that results in a price increase. Dealing with customer service gets more frustrating each time I need to get an issue resolved quickly. Also, my account rep changes frequently.
website is great, its just not a lot of quality applicants using it.
For $249 I would expect more than 3 job applications in a month. I had much better success with Craigslist and Indeed.
I regret paying for our job listing. All applicants were fake or junk.
Not a single applicant for the entire length of my job posting. The advertisement said I would get 20 resumes immediately once I paid the fee. I never got a single one. I called customer support and nothing happened. Maybe it will work for others but for me this was an total rip off
This was my first time using Monster. It was super easy. The support offered was awesome. And we received a lot of great applicants. Thanks!
The website is not user friendly and yield few acceptable applicants. The cost is too high for poor quality results. We had better luck with Craiglist.
We only received a few resumes for our ad and many were not fitting the qualifications we requested. Not sure how it was worth the price.
I have expected much more for$300.But It was a waste of money. For whole month I haven"t received any professional resume.Other job search sites cost much less but more helpful.Sorry,terrible experience.
I have not had many applicants apply for the position. Please repost my adverts to help me get applicants.
More importantly your user interface is extremely poor. Hard to use and difficult to manage applications.
You seriously need to overhaul your system before a competitor takes over. Your user interface is very old school and makes it a bad bad experience for the hiring manager.
Was sent people that were looking for jobs in other types of business. They were not a fit for what I needed and should not have been submitted to me for any type of consideration.
Bad experience with Monster. Wasted my money and will not mention their name again.
Gave a specific title and scope of work. I received a lot of resumes, but not within the scope of what I requested. We needed accounting experience not medical caregivers, fast food servers or dog walkers. Thank you anyways.
In placing 2 adds 99% were unqualified applicants. I went with Monster and paid the premium price but got the same response that I had gotten with Craigslist and Indeed which we far more reasonable in price
95% of applicants did not have the pharmacist degree needed for the job description. There is also limited ability to use a non major city. I even had someone yell at me because the ad made me use the closest city.
