FreshGigs.ca vs. MediaCareers.ca:

MediaCareers.ca and FreshGigs.ca are both niche job boards for the creative and marketing industries in Canada. FreshGigs.ca is slightly more affordable and attracts more website traffic than MediaCareers.ca, but doesn't feature a searchable resume database, which MediaCareers.ca in turn does.

FreshGigs.ca vs. Graphic Designers of Canada (GDC):

While FreshGigs.ca advertises a range of creative positions, GDC primarily caters to the graphic design industry, which might be the better option for targeted hiring. GDC charges C$250.00 for a nonmember listing, but FreshGigs.ca offers several paid posting options with upgrades to suit a variety of hiring needs.

FreshGigs.ca vs. Mediabistro:

While FreshGigs.ca serves Canada, Mediabistro has a global reach. Both platforms service top companies, but Mediabistro is U.S.-centric. Mediabistro offers a 14-day free trial for employers, while FreshGigs.ca charges a flat rate of C$99.00 for a job post.
