Consistent job board with some minor flaws Monster has been good to us over the years for finding qualified candidates. Typically the applications/candidate resumes are a decent fit for the roles we have advertised. Only minor complaints. When positing a job, the categories which a specific job falls under (mostly technology related) need to be added/updated to include more current positions. Also, when positing a job description, even when using the included 'copy/paste' tool, the formatting is inconsistent. (font size change, bullet points are further apart...etc.)

I don't get the resumes that I am… I don't get the resumes that I am looking for using keywords on a regular basis. I really don't like the format or the search page. I unfortunately have never gotten a hire from Monster. I wish that when posting a position I had more industry options or categories to choices.

Have had good luck finding qualified candidates 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.

Review Most of the resumes don't have the contact details. Like other job portals, in Monster we are unable to identify candidate visa status like EAD/GC/TN/E3/H1/Citizens.

New experience with hiring through Monster We had never placed an ad on line before and had always used the local newspaper which would have provided a small ad for 3 days at 2/3 of the cost of Monster. We received over 30 applications in less than 2 weeks, and were able to hire someone within that period of time. I would strongly recommend using Monster for any employer who is needing another employee.
