What reviewers actually said
Built only from these 120 real reviews (foreign ones translated). Superscripts jump to the quote here. Apple has no per-review links, so [ref] opens that app's reviews on the App Store.
- [R11] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Constantly crashes: Looking for work. This app crashes constantly. Three times in the last hour, leading to this review. Server jobs - 2 that are 22 miles away and have been posted for more than 30 days. I visited the restaurants; neither are hiring and don't know why the ads are there. App information is outdated and depressing.
- [R9] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Difficult navigation between apps: Glassdoor is difficult to navigate back-and-forth between apps. I have lost my information twice in the application process, merely by toggling to my personal information to copy and paste to Glassdoor. When I toggle back to Glassdoor, all my application information is lost.
- [R4] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers AI has ruined the app: New AI update has made the app unusable for me. Terrible and not at all user friendly.
- [R13] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers App has become near unusable: Stop forcing the AI garbage. It’s a pain to search for companies and review salaries now.
- [R21] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Changes for the worse: I use this app frequently, and recent changes just make it harder to use. It seems like every update requires me to tap more places to get to the same functionality. If I click Companies, I want to go directly to a search for companies. Now it takes me to an AI tab, then I have to scroll over and switch to Companies to search. Same with company reviews; now I need to tap on
- [R28] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers unusable: get rid of the ai.
- [R1] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Sold out: Glass door has sold out the employees that expect honesty from fellow employees by allowing companies to delete negative reviews essentially turning a pier reviewed platform into another app shilling our data for corporate reputation washing.
- [R22] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers They delete bad reviews: Companies can pay to have bad reviews deleted. Completely dishonest
- [R6] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Ghosting: Way too many ghost jobs/companies
- [R7] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Meh: Suggests 30+ day jobs that aren’t applicable to me
- [R12] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers A BIT REPATIVE: I changed in my setting to stop receiving emails because I am working. But I still get emails. Still get repetitive emails of the same job posting. Granted I get daily emails, but I continue to get emails for the same jobs I have applied for and I get those jobs that are not in my line of work.
- [R16] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Cant sign in on app: cloudflare is stuck in endless sign in loop -- updating few months later - still cant log in on the horrible app
- [R34] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Unable to log in: I’ve tried logging in on both the website and app using both Google and manually entering my email and it still won’t let me log in. App is unusable.
- [R37] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Can't even login??: And yes I updated. It just spins and nothing happens :((((
- [R27] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Can’t figure it out: Can’t upload resume
- [R39] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Job search is weak: You can’t sort job by salary or the app does not remotely give you similar jobs to what you are looking for. You input a senior position and just get junior positions or different sectors all together.
- [R48] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Stupid update: Who’s the idiot that got rid of the job title search ability for salaries. Now you can only narrow down by location and then can select different job categories? Moronic change
- [R25] Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers Low paying jobs: Jobs on Glassdoor are much lower paying than those I find elsewhere
- [R51] Indeed Job Search buggy: app works fine, but on many job postings, once i click “show more” it freezes and won’t let me continue scrolling down
- [R52] Indeed Job Search Not scrolling: I have used indeed for years but for some reason the job descriptions aren’t scrolling for me now. I deleted it and then tried not using extensions. I went to the help page and did what it said. Still nothing. Please fix this!
- [R53] Indeed Job Search Iob mismatch: While I do like indeed sometimes I get sent jobs or filtered into jobs that have nothing to do with my experience
- [R55] Indeed Job Search Best app job hunt: Awesome app for job hunting. Always posting great places to work.
- [R65] LinkedIn Not a robot: I haven’t logged in to LinkedIn in years. Trying to login seems impossible. The “not a robot” prompts are apparently too difficult for me to understand. Mark all boxes with busses. If a bus bleeds over to another square does that count as a square? Tried both ways and still I fail it. Try the audio version. Am I supposed to put spaces between the words? Try both ways and still fail. H
- [R66] LinkedIn Stronger connection.: If you feel your gift is dying try LinkedIn, a few connection will reassure you of bring your gift back to life. Is not just connection is a place of hope when your talent is clear.
- [R67] LinkedIn Cannot Access Certain Features Unless You Pay: I can no longer extensively browse people through search because I have to pay in order to look at more than 5 people but I can't afford to pay for the monthly or yearly membership as it's ridiculously priced. I understand how Premium makes sense for the job application process but everyone should have unlimited access to the search capabilities.
- [R68] LinkedIn Once I paid, it crashes every time I open it: Once I upgraded to premium. Every time I open the app on my iPad it prompts me for an update. And doesn't allow me to do anything. I click update. Which brings up the App Store. Asking me to open the app. And it starts all over again, prompting me for the update. I've deleted the app. Reinstalled the app. I can do nothing on LinkedIn. Because all I get
- [R54] Indeed Job Search - Honest review: In my four years of using indeed, I have applied for over fifty eight jobs and haven’t heard back from a single one, I recommend ZipRecruiter I have found two jobs in only a month of looking. Indeed is trash don’t waste your time and don’t give them your data to collect.
- [R79] ZipRecruiter Job Search Awful: This app gives you recommendations that are completely irrelevant to your searches and will even recommend jobs one at a time and they will be jobs for places that are a 3 or 4 day drive from your location. It’s ridiculous.
- [R80] ZipRecruiter Job Search Amazing jobs: Best place to work for plenty of opportunities to a great career opportunity
- [R81] ZipRecruiter Job Search Please Add SMS Verification: Overall, the app has been good, but I would like to suggest adding an alternative account recovery option. My brother lost access to the email linked to his account after Google disabled it, and because email is the only way to verify his identity, he can no longer access his ZipRecruiter account. His phone number is already connected to the account, so it would be ver
- [R93] Fiverr Just kinda sad tbh: I was pretty disappointed with Fiverr. I’m giving it two stars because I did end up finding one freelancer who did good work, so it wasn’t a complete loss. My biggest issue was the constant flood of scams. I was getting scam messages two or three times a day, every day. It honestly made sense why Fiverr requires scam awareness training during account setup, you’ll likely need i
- [R94] Fiverr Quality Work: Very responsive and good quality of work. Easy to work with .
- [R95] Fiverr Author-Long time customer: Taxes and commissions came high recently even some times more than the work itself and this discourage customers

- [R108] Snagajob Job needed: Job needed
- [R109] Snagajob Hi: The app is down
- [R110] Snagajob Terrible app: How are y’all gonna posts jobs that quite literally don’t exist? People out here struggling and all y’all care about is getting traffic, and pushing jobs people either payed to have on the list, or that flat out aren’t even a thing anymore. If I could rate below one star I would. I don’t know why I keep trying these apps. I’ve NEVER got so much as an email back from any employer I’ve
- [R58] Indeed Job Search Great job seeking application.: Does a wonderful job at helping people get jobs!
- [R87] ZipRecruiter Job Search Great!!: I have gotten so many interviews set up js using this app. So much better than indeed!
- [R89] ZipRecruiter Job Search At first I was skeptical but..: I was skeptical at first because although I made a Zip recruiter account fresh out of high school I had only gotten like one interview in the past but Zip Recruiter has definitely come through it has helped me find one of the best jobs I have had in a while. They did even better than Indeed.
- [R98] Fiverr scam: easy scam for the scammers
