Monster Job Search

Have not used in a long time, i always got the job on Monster, but ive raised a family and myself gone to school and worked some along the way my passion is inbound Call Center and i love remote ive got some sick family members that someone needs to be home with and; yes you got it i got the position at home taking care of sick relatives so hopefully monster wont dissapoint with my age and career!!! Alot going on in those years but you never forget how to be compasionate, on time, multitalk, email back a customer while using my cmr to gather there information put my headset on in my ɔuiet office and just take calls one right after the other, listen carefully to what my customer and client are saying im less likely to get an angry customer that way or if there just onry because theve had a bad day and something needs eɛplaining , if ive paid attentiom were more likely to gey along because, sometimes my clients just want to be heard and have empathy for each and everyday all they want you to do is pay attention ans to thier needs and empathize, be pleasant and get to work on time take my breaks and lunch per my schedule because your less likely to be hungry and possibly miss something your client has said and your call can go of the rails. So i hope you se with age comes wisdom and feedback most of all is important, i used to be uncomfortable with feed back until i learned how it can improve so much of your work. I hope Monster is as good as it used to be.

In my experience with this app I have had a terrible one. I would get an email saying I have a message then when I go to the app there is no message. When I went to the help and support it says I must have more than one account, but only have one account. They asked me if the email I am receiving is the email address I am using for said account and it is. Since an email account can only have one profile then the email I receive is for the account the app is linked to. Plus, the jobs they recommend are crap, they are not even in my field of experience and education. I am a autocad/3D designer and the jobs they recommend to me are all in accounts payable or sales. I would not recommend this app to anyone I know or don’t know. Out of all of the job board apps I have ever used this one is the absolute worst.

Normally, I do not take the time to write a review on apps. However, given the fact that Monster continues to market itself as the leading website for job seekers and recruiters alike, hopefully this feedback will be helpful to both of those demographics. From a job seeker perspective- stick with Indeed or LinkedIn. Monster’s search results rarely match up with the key words submitted. It is set up similar to a dating app of ‘swiping left/swiping right’. When you swipe to dismiss a position, it ‘permanently’ removes it. According to the warning when swiping, ‘you will not be able to go back and apply for a dismissed job later’. Since the recommendations were never for positions similar to my uploaded resume and completed profile, swiping away those ‘recommendations’ was an easy choice. Additionally, be prepared that if you upload a resume and complete a profile, you will be instantly bombarded from insurance companies recruiting for sales people and franchise opportunities. If those are the fields you are looking for, Monster is the app for you. Everyone else, it may be wise to devote your time on other platforms which more closely align with your career field. I kept my profile active and approached this app with an open mind. While it does have ease of use; the search feature, recommendations and sharing of profile information to ‘recruiting’ activities completely unrelated to your information earns it a 1 star and written review.
