“My Review for Career Builder”

4.0
Oct 27, 2025
i've been using career builder for over 3 years, it's been a great experience using it as one of the sourcing platforms. Whenever we get a requirement from the client, especially on NON IT recruitement roles, i tend to use career builder as i can see many profiles for sourcing which is very helpful, i also source IT profiles from career builder, many niche profiles can be found here. With the help of filter and advanced filter options, i can source profiles as per my need. mostly recently active candidates are the ones who would be looking for a job opportunity, so i always use filter options to sort out profiles based on my convenience. it is useful for both IT and NON IT roles for sourcing, it's one of the best sourcing platforms i've used for 3+ years, and i recommend this platform for US Recruiters for sourcing good profiles.

“Platform Navigation Easy Yet Search Features Remain Limiting for Resume Access”

3.0
Aug 18, 2025
Overall, the platform is user friendly and fairly easy to navigate but could be far more intuitive in some key areas. The daily job alerts are also a nice feature to assist in staying as up to date as possible. We also rely pretty heavily on the LinkedIn integration.

Performance of CareerBuilder Talent Discovery Platform Across Market Features

CareerBuilder Talent Discovery Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

I like both the filter and Advanced filter options, they make sourcing easier. I can migrate upto 10 profiles at a time, which saves time while working on multiple requirements. Sorting out recent active profiles from one week to 2 years is useful to get the right candidate

Like

The job posting features are extremely effective. You can also search for fairly specific things allowing for very targeted searches for specific skills.

Like

The Classic mode is what I like most considering its speed and simplicity. It allows quick scanning of profiles and workflows. Automation features help streamline the recruitment process.

Dislike

Many inactive profiles in the career builder and too Many Old profiles I look for 10 years experience candidates but it shows profiles with lesser experience profile mismatching happens.

Dislike

The search functions seem clunky and there are daily limitations on resume access. It is also pretty slow to load more often than not. In comparison to other choices, it can be viewed as pricey.

Dislike

I think that the limited viewing credits can often restrict the number of candidate views per month if your a high volume recruiter. Duplicate profiles from candidates are often found on the platform which makes it sometimes difficult to locate the most recent or current record.

    Classic Mode Enhances Profile Scanning Speed But Viewing Limits Pose Challenges

    Aug 19, 2025
    This platform offers ease of use & quality candidate pools who are relevant to your specific criteria. Its intuitive interface and powerful filtering tools make it easy to narrow down candidate searches while also helping to organize requisition portfolios.

    Great Outreach to Applicants however, the overall costs and clunky interface is what drove our change to another platform

    Jan 8, 2026
    This product is great with advanced filters for identifying the perfect candidates needed for any role. You can reach out to multiple candidates at once with their automated system, however the overall cost effectiveness overrides the issues we do have with the inconsistency on integrating employee resumes from 3rd party sites.
