I created an account with snagajob.com because Im currently looking for a job. No more than 15 min after creating a profile with my personal info, I received a phone call from a solicitor. Not to mention I was in the middle of filling out an applications which really pissed me off. My Email has been blowing up with Junk Mail ever since as well and it wont stop. NEVER USE SNAGAJOB.COM
I've applied multiple jobs and nothing no calls at all. I even went to one place that has their ad on there and told me to apply online. So I did through snagajob where their ad is placed. But when I went to the physical place of business they told me to apply on the businesses web site. I am not applying for the same job twice on two different sites. Any way: I got interview I did a working interview, they were supposed to call me to set up a work schedule two days ago and I've had no calls what so ever probably because I am not applying on the businesses site cause am not doing this on two sites this is supposed to be easy and it is irritating and frustrating. So they got 4 hours free labor work out of me with out further communication to me so I am really angry. This site is a bunch of crap and waste of time I have bills too and I need to work.
I filled out an app on their site for a job and my phone has not stopped ringing with spam calls. Not one job offer but lots and lots of fake prize winnings and a wide range of calls for lowering my bills. Save yourself the hassle and fill out paper apps
I applied for job on here but everytime I click apply here it brings other jobs not the one I'm applying for. This is ridiculous. Wasted my time on several viewed jobs.
I like the way it is easy to navigate and it always keeps up with your interest. I have been a user of this site for over 5 years and I am always impressed with it.
I recently have left my job with the city of Virginia Beach, and started attempting to use snagajob.com to seek new employment opportunities, but the website has made so may changes from what I remember that is very difficult to navigate now...
They have done what many many websites have done, and added so many bells and whistles to their service that you almost have to be a Computer Scientist to use the site anymore. Worse, when you try to contact them about this, they of course direct you to read their FAQ page, which is generally unhelpful on a grand scale. Also, after contacting them 3 times, the contact form no longer will send, so you get 3 strikes and you are out!
I had used Snag a Job several years ago. They provided a few Leeds. It was fairly simple experience.
Fast forward to today and I found "Snag A Job" on a list of Job sites for Seniors (55+). I thought "good". My password still worked so I set about adding my Photo to my profile. OMG! It would not go in with the correct orientation! My picture would only lay on it's side. I tried to rotate the image and resubmit it only to have it end up laying on the other side. UUUggghh So I rotated my photo up-side-down. POOF, that it Took, no problem. When I went to update my resume I was not allowed to use the word "Wireman". That was the final straw. I was done. I was not going to lie to the world because "Snag A Job" would not accept the word Wireman.
Privacy invasion. Registered to this site a few days ago and have been getting college recruiters contacting me on my phone. Found out there is an option:
"Yes I am interested in furthering my education and would like to learn about opportunities"
This option did not appear during or after registration. I only learned of this after getting a phone call from a recruiter who told me they saw the option selected in my profile.
Use this website at your own risk, full well knowing they will take your information and use it without your knowledge and consent.
Not sure why employers use this site to post their open positions. I have never been able to submit an application using this site. Employers are missing out on good applicants when using this service.
I have been using Snag for several months. I don't have a problem with the referral process or their assessment of potential applicants. HOWEVER, it is March 23,2020 in the midst of the covid. 19 pandemic. We closed our business out of social responsiveness. I contacted them today for suspension of my contract. They agreed to give me a percent off my next bill, that they "weren't able" to adjust my contract.
This is a great site for people looking to enter the workforce. The majority of the jobs listed do not require much experience but at the same time, the offerings are not a bunch of bogus ads. Legit places looking for good people.
Most of the jobs that are listed you have to create other accounts with them Snagajob is a very misleading and half of the sites that are rub you cannot finish your applications on them it's a waste of storage in your phone and it's a waste of time
They post jobs that actually aren't available, never received a response from anyone, and when I checked directly with an employer on one job that was posted, I was told such a position was never actually posted. My advice, don't waste your time with this site.
Applied to multiple jobs never get any response back claims to be one of the top job sites to get hired then just apply just not to even get a response from any of the companies
AFTER NOT MUCH LUCK ON ANOTHER JOBSITE I TRIED SNAGAJOB AND UPLOADED MY PROFILE AND RESUME. THE MOSTLY NEGATIVE REVIEWS TURNED OUT TO BE PRETTY ACCURATE. THE SITE IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE FOR APPLYING FOR A JOB, TOO MUCH NAVIGATION, AND ALMOST NEVER ARE YOU ABLE TO QUICK APPLY WITH YOUR RESUME.
THE SITE SEEMS SORT OF SCAMMISH. AT LEAST I DO GET JOBS AND REAL RESPONSES ON THE MOST POPULAR JOBSITE.
I STOPPED RUINING MY LIFE SEARCHING ON SNAGAJOB.
You only hear from them when is time to renew your contract, they say they will work with you if you are in trouble during Covid times but if you are under contract they don't (see other reviews). They don't stand behind their product.
They charge for listings and the hourly jobs while they may be in your city are hard to figure out how close they are to you... maybe they should use something more like http://stusjobs.com They are the Best!
So it wont allow you to prefill by uploading/downloading your resume! So you have to sit there and fill out years wortg of job history just to apply for a food job cause thats all they have available!
They don't send notifications about jobs you have applied for. Sometimes when you go to apply for a specific job, it says that you can't apply for this job because you don't meet the requirements for the job, when I verywell did.
I requested Snagajob/PeopleMatter to put my account on hold while my business was closed for two months due to the coronavirus. They refused to work with me at all. I was planning on continuing to use this company, but I will never work with them again. Terrible service!
