I hired from iHire
November 3, 2020

I used both Indeed and iHire. Indeed posted the position immediately and I received many potential qualified candidates. I could easily read their resumes and letters of introduction if they included one. I could also go back to the email link of the candidate and retrieve the information I was looking for. IHire posted several days later. The ease of accessing potential candidates' resumes and applications was not as easy - it was cumbersome. However, the person I hired came from iHire - well qualified and seems to be a perfect fit for the position.

Excellent Recruiting Resource

It was so easy to set up the job posting. The response was more than expected and we got very qualified candidates applying. The cost is quite reasonable in comparison to the return.

Great resume writing
October 28, 2020

I had worked for the same company for 35 years and never really had a resume. Val and Sidney were great at writing and preparing a much better resume than I could put together on my own. I have applied for many jobs with that resume and have had employers reach out to me when looking at my resume. A great experience all around.

Emails
October 19, 2020

I had a e-mail saying that the company wanted to have a phone interview, That was a good thing! But they never put a phone number on the message... So I emailed them back to ask for the phone number... they emailed me back but from a deferent email address the phone number, but because it wasn`t from the same email that had you company name on it, I missed it. Its a good thing they did email me when they wanted to know why I missed my interview that I had to google the place and contact them. Maybe you should put in recommendation when someone uses your service that it should be done so we as job looking People can have an easier time looking for a great job and easier experience.

Disappointed in results
October 19, 2020

I had to give score because for my monthly payment, I received no new job searches. I kept getting customer service or Retail notifications. I have many years of experience in the office and I enjoy the office environment but not many jobs posted. Especially under iHireAdmin which I thought would give me more it did not. When I uploaded my resume it was an older version that was not up to date, but my reviewer did not ask or mention that dates where not up to date. I uploaded a revised version but never got critiqued and I found typos that an extra set of eyes would have been helpful. When I went to look for classes that would be helpful, I found them NOT for free but charged almost $200. Hello local library has books for FREE.
