Beware of the auto-renew they do. Even when you hit cancel you'll still get billed, and good luck finding somebody to help you.

This whole app promotes scammer people are using real company information just to scan you out of your information if you received a job on and they ask any personal questions like your ssn where you located at or what bank you with. ITS A SCAM

The company allows flexible working hours/places with client's consent. Payment is matching the market rate. Easy to communicate with management and get yourself heard. The team is great, learning and work is so enjoyable.
Only downside is that you might face the risk of being on bench when your project is completed.

I posted my resume on CareerBuilder more than a decade ago and was contacted by a recruiter that set me up with an actual, real job that I've kept and been promoted at numerous times over the years. Now that I'm getting ready to go back on the market, I figured I'd post my resume and hope for gold again. That lasted 2 days before I took it down and am trying to delete my account entirely. As soon as I posted it, I started getting calls and text messages for positions that are well outside of what I'm searching for and/or are well below my skillset. They're not targeted outreaches, other than "If you have a pulse, you too can do sales/data entry/customer service, etc." And there's no reason anyone should be asking for my Zoom account credentials! What a shame.

I joined I think maybe in the last 24 to 72 hours and have already had two companies contact me that were complete scams everything they were offering sounded great, but then I got to thinking why would they offer someone with just a high school education a job of administrative assistant starting at 30.50 an hour and why would they want me to do an interview over an app called telegram the other one I got from that site was just this morning offering like 40 an hour both positions I am clearly not qualified for period so yeah this site used to be an awesome site to find a Career but it seems like it has turned into a ton of scams. So Buyer BEWARE! I DO NOT RECOMEND JOINING THIS SITE! If you are looking for a job it is a bunch of BS

I'm not even on this website at all and keep getting calls from out of country folks asking if I have time to talk and that they found me on here... When i ask them why and what company they're from, they don't answer with a straight answer.

I posted my resume on the site. I have been overwhelmed by scam emails, for crap jobs that have absolutely no relation to my resume and skill set. Careerbuilder needs to get serious about blocking these scammers but there isn't even a portal to report the scams coming from this site. What unbelievable bull$#*!. Hire some cybersecurity people.

Everything on the site is a scam. Every job I applied to came back as a scam. They do not vet their employers that are posting to the site.

Since joining this site to try and find a job, I've had nothing but scammers reach out to me. Please avoid this website at all costs! I was on this site for less than a week and I already deleted my account because of all the scammers.

Career Builder - Every single job offer I've had has been fraud. I have never and I mean never experienced anything like this from any other employment website. Far to excessive. Everyone has asked me to either give money or deposit a check for equipment from their private suppliers.

I mean its rediculous. Do they do ANYTHING to attempt to curb the scam activity? Everyday Im inindated with texts and emails telling me to download some video app for an online interview. Then if its a company I recognize I contact them to see if they've ever heard of the person who contacted me. NOPE! And we would never contact a job applicant via text. The site is complete rubbish and it should be shut down! AVOID ALWAYS!

Job scammers from fake caller ID numbers with fake job listings… assuming you can understand what they are saying. Ghosted and never hear back! Don't give your information! Blowing up my phone, not USA based. Wasted my time… several years. I can't even get my data removed after several attempts.
Good grief!

Once you put your information in, you'll basically be bombarded from recruiters that clearly speak English as a second language for positions that not in your field, not anywhere close to you, and that you're clearly overqualified for. Use Indeed, LinkedIn, and/or Zip Recruiter instead.

Don't put your resume and profile information on this site if you don't want a crap load of spam calls/texts/emails. This used to be a great site to look for a job, but now it's just a way to get harrassed by spammers. It's exhausting. As if looking for a job isn't tough enough, now you're being spammed for this too. It's really sad.

I signed up for a one month job posting. Even after several phone calls and emails to multiple customer service reps, I couldn't get the account cancelled and they kept billing our credit card. The phone reps told us they would refund the money for the additional months, but they never did, and they charged us again for another month. I would not recommend posting anything with this site. I chose a competitor site. I found the other site to be much easier and it was free. Indeed, going to a competitor site was a much better choice for us. I will not do business with Career Builders again.

I have always used indeed, and have found jobs easily on there. I honestly didn't even know that you could get so many scam calls, emails, and text messages from a work site. I never had issues like that with indeed or LinkedIn. They really need to fix hoe people are able to post jobs. Will never recommend

After I built my profile on the careerbuilder website I immediately starting receiving spam calls from "temp" agencies and travel jobs. I have been getting multiple emails and calls per day for jobs I have not inquired or applied for. Even after closing my account I am still getting spammed. Absolute bs. Do not bother. Use indeed or linkedin

It took nearly losing 10k to a very sophisticated scam that led me to write this review. Career Builder needs to find a way to verify employers. Now my inbox is full of every bottom-feeding fraudulent employer in India offering me a job. Canceled my account. Good riddance.
