Our take
Founded in 2012, ZipRecruiter has grown from a tool to help small businesses distribute job postings affordably to an employment marketplace used by millions of people.
Users can search for jobs on the site or app, as well as sign up for job alerts. Job alerts are tailored to the information that job seekers provide, reducing the spam that other services can generate.
Lately, ZipRecruiter has been working to enhance the experience for job seekers and hirers on its platform. For example, it partnered with iCIMS to make its recruitment process faster and simpler. The company also acquired UK-based job comparison site Breakroom, with intentions to launch its service in the US.
