A little confusing navigating the sign up options so I stayed with the basic and said no to all of the additional options.

Your upfront info is very vague. Your system lures people in, then says, pay to actually use it!

I have entered multiple times the city and zip code for the area of which I am needing to find help and the app refuses to advance. ALLLLLL I want to do is post a job opening and get on with my day. You have over $100 of my money so now let me use your services.

Took about three hours to update password, then additional fees were added to even see the applicants. What a rip.
