Tried unsuccessfully to modify my profile to be able to update my settings and upload most current resume. Get an error stating unable to upload your profile our team has been notified. Yet doesn’t give an option to delete and create a new profile or any way to reach out to someone who could actually provide assistance that will try to trouble shoot the issue just states hey we see you having an issue thanks!

Whatever filters you put in, it won’t matter. So, if you key in “Registered Nurse” or “RN” in your own city and limit the results to a 50-mile radius, the Monster app will still give you results for cities 100 miles away (and for every LPN and Nurse Practitioner job as well). However, if you cut down on the distance radius — say to 20 miles — you’ll significantly cut down on the number of posted jobs, and they’ll still be irrelevant. In one recent search, I literally got only 7 listed jobs, but all were Nurse Practitioner vacancies instead of RN… and there’s a big difference.

I started my account online then downloaded the app. The app does not show the same resume. The app also shows me jobs that I have no experience in. My experience is in dispatching and freight brokerage, how does monster expect me to have any idea how to be mechanic? Also why pass on a job through the app if it’s just going to come up every time I Go to look at “recommended” jobs? The app is useless and I’m deleting it from my phone.*update*Still not a good app. Cannot filter out the insane amount of CDL and sales jobs.

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.

Not sure where to start with this app. You create a profile and you put down you’re work history and you specify what type of job role your looking for and the amount of calls and e-mails I get have nothing to do with what I posted. It’s like what’s the point if no one’s gonna read it? The search engine doesn’t let you specify the types of jobs your looking for or the amount you wish to receive. I mean even on indeed you can do that but Monster won’t let you? I’ve received so many phone calls from jobs that I’m not even interested in and I can’t even filter that out to only get calls for jobs I’m actually looking for. I’m either getting a voicemail from someone I can’t understand or an email from job that I didn’t even list in my profile. At this point it’s just cold calling you to get your data I mean what’s the point of all this. At this point I’m giving it another week and if I don’t see any resolution to this I’m just gonna delete my account and stick with indeed cause this is just a joke. I don’t have time to be screwing around with jobs that are paying you less then what your worth that you put on your profile. Hoping I’m not the only one who feels like this to but anyone who might read this and is serious about finding a great career path this ain’t it. Pretty sad if you ask me.

Not sure where to begin besides that I rarely ever rate apps. But this one is very different. What happened to the old Monster? Did you turn into Tinder? To begin, the sync between the website and what you have in the app are completely off. I have to enter my info twice which is highly inconvenient. Second. I do NOT want to do a full and complete keyword search when you could easily introduce filters. Have I mentioned how wonderful filters are? Let me filter by location (which by the way if I do filter by location and limit to 10 miles or so, I get other states, which I do not understand). If I search for a specific title, I am told that this job is not available. Yet when I look for said title on Indeed or LinkedIN, it appears with HUNDREDS of results, not none. I’m not too sure who programs the app and the website, but they may want to think about working better as a team! I receive more hits on my resume here than anywhere else, which is why I keep Monster. But if it wasn’t for that, I would never touch this app again. Please get back to the way you used to be Monster. The old Monster always had the perfect results and filters. None of the “Tinder” like ideas. It just ruins the juju of finding the perfect job. Instead it feels like I am trying to find the perfect date....I hope in the future that Monster turns this around.
