Review:

Job Spider is a free job board that allows employers to search through resumes and find the right candidates. Job posts are also formatted to be picked up by large job post aggregators, giving posts further exposure and access to a centralized candidate database.

Pros:

  • Employers can search through resumes for free.
  • The site integrates with most applicant tracking systems.
  • Jobs posted on the site are picked up by job post aggregators.
  • Job seekers can browse through job posts or search for specific jobs.
  • The website has a simple design, making it easy to use.
  • All candidates on the site have manually submitted their resumes.

Cons:

  • There is a smaller pool of candidates and job posts because all information must be sent to the site directly.
  • There are more comprehensive Canadian job boards with a larger reach.
  • While the site is free, Job Spider is not exclusively Canadian.
  • You can only contact the website via email.
  • The website lacks a French language option.
  • Job Spider only offers an email address for customer services.
  • Job Spider does add "opportunities" that are home-based.
  • The platform does not offer social media sharing, candidate matching, or in-house applicant tracking tools.
  • Job Spider does not provide sponsored postings to boost visibility.

Job Spider vs. Indeed:

Indeed offers free job postings and the option to sponsor job posts for more exposure. Similarly, Job Spider is a free site, but there is an option to contact the site's administrator to discuss advertising options. These services are not standard or listed on the website. Indeed is a global job board, while Job Spider is limited to North America.

Job Spider vs. Google for Jobs:

Both Google for Jobs and Job Spider are free, but Google for Jobs differs from Job Spider in that it is an aggregator that lists job ads from employer websites if the employer has indexed the posts for Google. In contrast, employers post their jobs directly on Job Spider, which then formats the posts so they can be picked up by larger job boards.

Job Spider vs. Job Bank:

While Job Spider caters to the whole of North America, Job Bank is the official job board for the Canadian government and only shows jobs based in Canada. Both sites are completely free, without any sponsored posting options. Job Bank offers a French language option, which Job Spider lacks.
