“Enjoyed collaborating with them”

I was happy with the offers they provided me but in the end I chose the variants from another source. Good overall but the company definitely may have to improve their strategies.

These criminals somehow got a hold of my resume and published it without my permission. I e-mailed their help desk to remove my so-called website from google search but they are not doing it. These are scums on earth. Stay away and don't ever never pay these people for their fraudulant service! They should all get locked up in jail or deported from this country!

I was directed to peoplelex via simplyhired.com for a construction manager job and somehow got charge $179.00 for nothing and don't think my resume was ever posted for the job that I was directed to the site for in the first place. No way did I click on their choose all 179 contacts for $179.00 so somehow it rang me up. And try to get a hold of them, good luck!

I was looking for a Director of Product marketing role in the Cable Industry & since my search was very specific, normal job applications wouldn't have worked. I needed to have a strategy where I could access key decision makers in my industry. Getting access to this information allowed me to have a targeted plan which led to my job.

Jennifer doesn't describe an experience, so is suspiciously like a Peoplelex advertisement. Jennifer doesn't describe paying $179; she doesn't describe any contact from any of the 179 recruiters. She doesn't describe these because she is obviously already employed by Peoplelex. Sitejabber needs to cull these self-aggrandizing reviews. Good luck at Peoplelex, Jennifer. I hope you never need a real recruiting web site.

They are very deceptive in the way that they charge you, borderline fraudulant. Upon selecting a job posting, it requires you to enter your info and states that it cost $1 per recruiter. In small print, it says something about a deal to get multiple recruiters info for $179, but is not clear that is what you are signing up for. After entering your info, it takes you to the next page where it tells you that you are indeed being charged the $179 fee. At this point, i merely hit cancel and did not confirm the payment. Yet, they charge you anyway. I immediately tried contacting them via phone and email, but there has been no response. It is really frustrating and i would deter anyone to sign up for this service, merely to the fact that customer service is non-existant.

Site is a load of Sh*t. While the concepts is cool, it fails every where else.
The way it charges yous is BS. 179 dollars for 179 contacts, generally you only want one or two contacts so the charge scale is jacked.
The user interface is awful... i never found a site as a bad as this. It is near impossible to find a advertised recurtier.
The customer service is non exsistent.
The advertising is deceptive.
This site is bad.
You are better of contacting a actual recurting agency then using this website.
Pretty much stay away

I am interested in finance jobs and given the state of the industry, I couldn't just sit back apply to jobs and wait for responses. I signed up with Peoplelex to get an edge in networking and reaching recruiters via other channels. I got in touch with the complete list of recruiters for my given fee of 179$. And guess what? It paid off! I am starting with a bank in the SF/bay area that was originally sourced through thier database

The only reason, I have a job now at a media company in LA is because of Peoplelex's recruiter contacts. They helped me avoid the usual apply to jobs and not hear anything back. Talking to real people helps actually move the ball forward. There is no substitute for that and Peoplelex's contact information service gets you talking to real people.

I was trying to track down 3-4 contacts in my niche area of the non-profit sector. I saw the service and signed up to get the contacts for the Hiring managers. The contact I wanted were in the database and I was able to get in touch to meet them for an informational interview. Thank you! Thank you!

I signed for the service for $179/year to primarily get access to HR & Hiring Managers. While there was more recruiter information, I found a substantial number of direct corporate HR & Hiring managers in my target industry. I emailed most of the list provided and the response was about 4 from 150 contacts I emailed. I got 2 interview calls from them. I followed up with calls for the companies who I was really interested in but who hadn't yet got back to me. I got positive interview discussions with 2 more people. I am in final stage of interviews with 2 of the 4.

On the whole, I am quite excited with this service since it gave me additional options from just applying for jobs and hoping for a response. This is not easy work and requires more time commitment but definitely worth it if you are serious about finding a job.
