Career Sites: The Results
The results of our latest Bug Battle - the Clash of the Career Sites - are now official. In all, more than 500 testers from 22 countries participated in the competition, reporting just shy of 700 bugs. The undisputed champion of this quarter's competition was Monster.com, which placed first in every single category, while recording the fewest number of bugs per tester and the second fewest number of bugs overall.
Other top-line findings included:
- Indeed had the least reported bugs (139), followed by Monster (169), CareerBuilder (171), and then SimplyHired (189).
- While Monster placed first and Indeed placed last in every survey category, CareerBuilder and SimplyHired were deadlocked in the survey portion of the contest, each receiving favorable rankings in three out of six categories.
- More than half of the testers (55%) chose ‘job search accuracy’ (ability to browse relevant jobs by job title, keyword, location, category, etc.) as the most important criteria when evaluating career applications.
- When asked if concerned about the privacy and safety of personal information stored on job websites, an overwhelming 82 percent of respondents answered “yes.”
