  • Cannot see the words I write

    I like this app and it has helped me land great roles. However, for about 2 or 3 months now it has nor been allowing me to see what I write in the search bar. I ignored it thinking it was a glitch but here we are 3 months later worth the same issue. I was jus trying to apply for a role but much like the search bar issue, it was not allowing me to see the questions the employers were asking. It just showed yes or no as an option. Please help! This was probably a great opportunity that I lowered out on because of an ongoing technical issue.

  • Desperately Seeking Job

    This is most definitely one of the better/best apps I have used throughout my seemingly endless job hunt. I found everything very easily navigable and absolutely love that you can view how many times and by whom your resume has been viewed. The only aspect I would like to be done differently is the option of separate spaces or lines that would allow the job seeker the ability to add more than one job they are interested in or looking for. Other than that, I am very happy and impressed with, and thankful for CareerBuilder. Keep up the great work! Thank you!

  • It doesn’t update applied jobs

    Just when I apply then close and reopen the app it says that I haven’t applied to any jobs idk what’s going on, I’m going to try and reinstall the app and see if that fixes the issue. I’ll update the review if it does. The issue wasn’t fixed at all, applied to over 27 different positions just for them not to post that I applied on my account. The jobs I applied to arnt showing in my applied jobs list. Fix and I’ll try again but as of right now indeed would be your best bet than this one.

  • App could be much better; too many spam recruiters

    Too many phone calls and emails from questionable recruiters who often call several times per day and send multiple emails for jobs either out of town or not lined up with listed experience. They are always foreigners who can’t speak English and dig for you to divulge personal information like your SSN. They obviously don’t bother to read your resume. App doesn’t allow you to check messages and can only check on a computer. Messages received are from bogus life insurance agencies attempting to recruit people to sell life insurance or jobs not that don’t align with skills. There are much better and more useful job search sites.

  • Your Info is 100% Public

    Regardless of selecting the option to list my resumes privately through Career Builder this does not and will not happen. I’ve reuploaded my resume with different contact information to ensure that I do not continue to receive spam phone calls/emails/texts but random companies keep calling me nonstop daily! It has gotten to the point where it’s interfering with my daily life and using my phone in general! I’ve reached out to Career Builder about the issue multiple times with no response. I use to love the ease of use with this site however, with the ongoing daily spam via email/calls/texts for positions I didn’t apply for in addition to no support or feedback from Career Builder, I will not use nor do not recommend this platform.

  • For today’s technology. Very poor and Beware

    In 3 weeks of job searching, all I’m seeing are Recruiters. Also, I am receiving Recruiter type calls and emails but they are always very suspicious. I received numerous, back to back calls first, then emails with offers of Contract work and a lengthy job description...with numerous typos. No matter what Recruiting company is contacting you, the email is the same and the callers are middle eastern.

    Scammers! Obviously, CareerBuilder needs to improve its efforts in protecting our information.

    Needs many improvements. Most importantly, the upload of Resume’s and CB’s formatting is horrible.

  • Amazing

    Career Builder has blown Indeed out of the water. After I put in applications I got a call for an interview in less than 20 mins. I’ve gotten more interviews through career builder than any other app or website I’ve ever used. I recommend to anyone that is looking for a job and doesn’t have time for the slow pace hiring process. 10/10

  • Better than indeed

    I had forgot about CareerBuilder because of how popular indeed is however the second I updated my career builder with my new resume and did “quick apply” which was a Thursday that next Friday morning I got three phone calls for interviews. I may get a response every 1 out of 70 positions with indeed

  • New Career Job Seeker - Age late 50’s

    Each position is well defined and has more info available, consequently I am able to eliminate options that simply will not work for for me. This saves myself and the company seeking applicants from having wasted time. I also really like the filter options because this allows me to search effortlessly from the options that I have experience in. I’ve had success in multiple industries so by filtering my search I can better review my best options for my next and probably my final career.

  • Spam Web!!

    I used another app for months and decided to see what jobs might be on other apps. After I registered, uploaded my resume and searched jobs, I started getting dozens of spam emails, all worded nearly identical except for a few select words being changed, and all using poor English. They all gave a vague description of the job and wanted me to open an attachment for the full job description! To use my dad’s and grandpa’s phrase, “I didn’t just fall off of the turnip truck!” (meaning I’m no idiot!) I would not recommend this app to anyone!
