I've never used zip, but heard that they post to many boards.... except Monster and Indeed.   This costs extra.  You might want to check into their current practices.

We've been using Indeed for recruiting.  It works and it's pricey.   I've spent just over $2K with them this year (on both techs and GS's).   We're not actively looking at the moment, but we hired 2 Techs in January and replaced 1 apprentice tech that couldn't tighten bolts or run them in straight and his replacement is an A+ student from school, but D- at work.   That big boy could hide behind a skinny pole when there's hard work to do.   About to replace him too.    Sigh.    At least, this time, we are chasing a private lead that might pan out. 

I've not tried Monster as an employer.  They were the OG #1, but Indeed took over that spot.     And never tried Craigslist. 

On pay, I've taken the approach that I'm paying above market rates.   As they say in the Management class, after 18? billed hours, the tech is free of charge.  Don't remember the exact number, but the point is that there is a low hurdle to covering their costs.  This was from a discussion on 2 techs with 1 bay each vs 1 tech with 2 bays.

Personally, we write our ads to be attract people to want to work for us, rather than the typical I need, you must.   Our needs are in there too, but we're fishing with the best bait possible without overselling.   I wish you Good Luck!

Bantar, Would you mind sending me your ad.  I would change it to match our situation.  Please send to my email [email protected].  I would greatly appreciate it.  We have been here 53 years, not a beautiful building, but a great place to work.

Sent.   I recommend reading the other postings on Indeed.   Go on as a job applicant searching for a job and see what others are posting in your area.  They are your competition for talent.   Good Luck!!

Usually, Indeed calls me shortly after making a job ad to see if they can help improve things, but this is random.   When they are on the phone, they are helpful.

Please post details of your experience with ZipRecruiter afterwards.  I've never spoken with anyone that used this service.   For instance, I heard that they had multiple tiers, and posting on Indeed was a higher paid tier.   Is it a flat fee or a pay-for-clicks model?   Good luck on the search!!!
