### 3/5 — John Thomas

*2026-08-28, version 20.1.16*

Many times was not able to use because of errors.

### 2/5 — Unable to load profile

*2026-08-13, version 20.1.15*

If Monster was my employee I’m afraid I’d have to let them go.

### 1/5 — Fraught With Fraudulent Impersonaters

*2026-08-06, version 20.1.14*

The only job offers I’ve received redirect to a MS Teams interview.
They were immediately, aggressively interested in bank information most employees aren’t expected to share. 
On further research, I discovered they impersonating well known corporations
and was confirmed by their HR departments.
Tread carefully, with caution and don’t click any links.
In person or virtual face meetings are imperative.
They need to clean up this app.

### 3/5 — Job search

*2026-08-05, version 20.1.14*

I really haven’t seen jobs within my radius. They’re all outside of the area. Therefore they don’t appeal to me. They’re too far to travel and also they are jobs that are not within my skills so I have tried redirecting my preferences, but it just doesn’t seem to do any good I have the same problem with indeedjobs.com.

### 1/5 — Not Working

*2026-08-02, version 20.1.14*

Is don’t let me look at any jobs plz fix

### 1/5 — Scam site!!

*2026-07-30, version 20.1.14*

No wages shown on 98% of listings! This site itself wants all your info just to make contact with them! This is old school scam!!!!

### 2/5 — Terrible search

*2026-07-29, version 20.1.14*

1-3 jobs locally ….30 days ago??? Really.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-07-28, version 20.1.14*

This company sends your private information without your permission!

### 2/5 — Not an easy app to work

*2026-07-27, version 20.1.14*

90% of postings don’t have pay listings, there is no option to  send listings, and it may be possible but i cannot figure out how to look at the jobs i’ve applied to.

### 1/5 — Not a fan.

*2026-07-25, version 20.1.14*

I’m glad this app is free.  It’s repeatedly unable to load my profile - deleted it, reinstalled it, same thing happens.  I’ll just stick to the web version to  view any jobs I get emails about that seem worthwhile.  It’s almost like they made it overly simple - another job site did the same thing with their app as well.

### 1/5 — Unable to Process

*2026-07-17, version 20.1.13*

I cannot do anything with this app. I get an error on every job posting and I cannot even access my account settings. The job market is difficult enough to navigate without the job board that’s supposed to help you failing for days straight.

### 1/5 — Technical Support

*2026-07-15, version 20.1.14*

The app crashes while using

### 3/5 — Job search

*2026-07-14, version 20.1.13*

I really haven’t seen jobs within my radius. They’re all outside of the area. Therefore they don’t appeal to me. They’re too far to travel and also they are jobs that are not within my skills so I have tried redirecting my preferences, but it just doesn’t seem to do any good I have the same problem with indeedjobs.com.

### 3/5 — Irrelevant jobs

*2026-07-10, version 20.1.13*

There should be an option to remove or filter out job openings that are unrelated.

### 1/5 — No pay information

*2026-07-10, version 20.1.13*

This app never gives a pay scale for any listings, there’s only one reason to begin considering a job and that’s the rate of pay, people don’t have time to play games

### 1/5 — Can’t apply

*2026-07-07, version 20.1.13*

I applied to one job and now the site won’t allow me apply to anymore and can’t load my profile or anything. I’ve deleted and reinstalled a number of times but it doesn’t change anything. Kind frustrating for an app that’s supposed to help you apply for jobs.

### 1/5 — App never works properly

*2026-07-03, version 20.1.13*

I have been trying to use this app for a few weeks now and have resolved to just using it as a place to go just directly apply to the website of the job they are suggesting for me. Every time I apply from here it gives me an error message and my profile keeps crashing. No wonder more people use Indeed and ZipRecruiter. At least they keep their software updated.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2026-07-03, version 20.1.13*

Every time I open the app to see if it’s a day that it’ll work, most of the time it doesn’t load anything or it has issues when trying to apply to a job.

### 1/5 — horrible

*2026-07-01, version 20.1.13*

Filtering for jobs doesn't actually show relevant roles; constant spam messages in inbox with no way to report or block these fake opportunities. Terrible app.

### 2/5 — Way to hard to use

*2026-06-29, version 20.1.13*

Took over 2 hours to download resume only to tell me that I choose wrong button to verify my credentials and citizenship

### 1/5 — App not functioning

*2026-08-29, version 20.1.16*

Trying to use the so is pointless… it forces you to use the website anyways, so why have the app? I can’t view my own resume on the app. I have to go to the website. I can’t view my own personal information. Again, I have to go to the website. I can’t view or apply for jobs. Must go to the website for that as well. So. What is the point in the existence of the app? Interestingly, Handshake, LinkedIn, and Indeed have not been having these problems. The apps are fully functional, I can view my own information, and I can apply for jobs.  Do better Monster.com. Do better.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-08-26, version 20.1.16*

If I could give this site 1/2 star I would!  You can’t even enter your location with this POS site reverting to NEW YORK😡

### 1/5 — Not letting me open the app or jobs in it

*2026-08-24, version 20.1.16*

It don’t let me look at any jobs or try to apply for any job plz fix as soon as possible

### 1/5 — Very poor follow up on problems with the site

*2026-08-20, version 20.1.16*

I have been trying to get in the system again and it consistently says it is unable to load my profile and that they are aware of the situation. I'm working on it. This has been going on for over three weeks.

### 1/5 — RN

*2026-08-19, version 20.1.16*

I have repeatedly relayed to you I ONLY WORK AT HOME. I do not drive! I work remote from my home office only on QA, UR, telehealth, Hedis.  I worked from my home office from 2014-2021 it’s in the summary of my resume’. I keep getting messages for jobs i have no interest in and can no longer do because I no linger drive.

### 1/5 — Office manager

*2026-08-19, version 20.1.16*

I have encountered numerous online scams related to remote work. It has been a significant waste of time and energy. It is disappointing that Monster does not have sufficient measures in place to filter out these scammers. I am quite frustrated by this situation.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-18, version 20.1.16*

There’s lots of people posing to be legitimate people on here sending out false positions to jobs you’d never apply for. Watch out for these scams. “Recruiters” will call you for positions asking if you’d be interested in the positions their clients are looking to fill ask for information and never call you back. You’ll get multiple calls back to back.

### 1/5 — GARBAGE

*2026-08-18, version 20.1.16*

The amount of fake spambot scambot ai fake job scams is GARGANTUAN the putrid garbage of it all how frustrating and demeaning it is for us who are struggling to just find a good job and be a productive member of society.

### 1/5 — What’s wrong with this app

*2026-08-17, version 20.1.16*

This app has not been working for 2 weeks. I keep getting a message that the tech are aware. But it still not working. I’m over it. Too bad it’s turned to garbage because I loved this app. Ttfn.

### 1/5 — Multiple errors

*2026-08-12, version 20.1.15*

Locks up, won't save, “unknown errors,” won't upload resumes, can't apply. Waste of time and energy in an already horrible market.

*2026-06-09, version 20.1.11*
