Is SnagAJob.Com A Scam? [Ripping Off Employers?!]

Surprisingly, Snag company structure appears decent. However, they didn’t obtain an accreditation status on the Better Business Bureau records as an internet-based job posting service.

This comes next after the company’s failure to achieve the accreditation from the above-mentioned platform. Unfortunately, they only got a D- rating.

Out of 5-star rating, the customer left an average of 1.5 customer rating based on the overall performance of Snag as a job posting service company.

One customer named Lana wrote that although she got charged immediately after registration, her job posting didn’t go live.

When she asked why she only knew that the job posting was on hold albeit the payment she made from her account. 

Another thing that got my attention is how common this problem is for most online job posting company. I wonder why. 

Most of the time, it doesn’t matter if it’s a leading job consolidator or not, they all have serious concerns with poor communication.

Typically, this surrounds with the billing and inadequate explanation behind the company’s act of canceling the account without notice.

Upon registration, both the employers and job seekers are hammered with spam calls and emails from different companies and individuals that often not related to the job they applied or posted. The same problem with Indeed.

This is inevitable, apparently. SnagAJob.Com doesn’t have the full control of disposing your personal information to the potential worker or company once they dispatch those.

Besides, it’s their job to connect the employers and workers, right? From there, you wouldn’t be assured the ones that will call or email you are real persons or companies at all. 

According to one review, this is often the case for SnagAJob users. You will continue to receive unnecessary emails and calls to the point where you have to block all of them or change your number as soon as you could.

This isn’t the worst case yet. They will continue to charge you although the ad you posted has been taken down. 

Despite the ongoing negative issues SnagAJob faces today, I sought their passion to become a great online job posting service.

As per personal experience with applying to different jobs using these kinds of platforms, you can’t guarantee which of these are true companies or individuals at all.

The thing is you have to be patient and vigilant upon distributing your personal information to them.

As I mentioned earlier, you can’t help but accept that the details you stipulated on your account and on your resume are evenly distributed, including those with bad motives.

Like the Rat Race Rebellion and Mommy Jobs Online, many of those people tend to include this option to earn money while they are at home.

They can do their day job without the need to leave the house and their families. That’s great. It means to say that the job posting services like SnagAJob opens that possibility to make things easier in the realm of job searching industry. 

The same as Indeed, the company sends out representatives to answer all the customer concerns on the Better Business Bureau as much as they could to resolve everything.

This is greatly appreciated albeit the threats of some that they wouldn’t recommend Snag to others because of their horrible experiences with the platform.

Many reviews mentioned that joining platforms such as Snag is tricky. Yes, it’s true. Many people can testify that, including me. However, there’s no safe way to this unless if you opt not to apply for a job at all.

Why?

The Snag is intended to gather your information with the intention of sending them out to the potential applicant or companies and individuals, who are in need of these for their respective enterprises.

The thing is the motives behind these groups aren’t disclosed if they’re real or nonexistent companies. This is not controllable though.

According to one client, she wrote, “This website is fraudulent, sells, or uses your info for other purposes than finding a job. You will get hundreds of unwanted calls and emails not too long after signing up, none of which is [job-related].”

Another client mentioned that there are way too many job listings that aren’t necessarily related to what she applied for, to begin with. However, she received “educational opportunities” instead after 2 minutes she registered on the site.

In spite of these resolved disputes, Indeed gave an average rating of 3.8 out of 5 based on the customer rating on behalf of the employees, on the other hand.

SnagAJob may have been imperfect in the eyes of their clientele, but they keep the healthy relationship between the executives and the staff working hand-in-hand behind the scenes.

Sadly, there are more layoffs and job security issues ongoing as well. This is probably because of the poor compensation from the executives to their employees.

They may affiliate to the biggest companies in the United States, but they kept the poor financial conditions affecting their staff drive to work more efficient.

A former employee said, “This company kept wasting my time by telling me to come in for multiple interviews and saying I was exactly what they were looking for. But I couldn’t tell it was very poorly managed.”

He added that it’s a big waste because the workplace appears fun to work but the ongoing issues disturb him. In fact, another former employee supported this claim by saying, “Executive leadership [is] clueless.”

Because of that, the entire work is affected, including how they performed with the clients leading to the poor customer ratings and splurge of negative comments on different platforms, from the BBB to others.
