Simply Hired is a contender in the job search market. Competing against companies such as Indeed, Simply Hired seeks to consolidate job listings from major and minor job sites such as Monster, Careerbuilder, the WSJ and many other newspapers, content websites, organizations and company career pages. Jobs from these sites are categorized by their components (location, work experience, education, company size, etc.) for which users can search and filter their results. Searches can be narrowed further through specialty filters such as “Fortune 500”, “Dog Friendly” and “Mom Friendly” jobs. Simply Hired also had a “Who Do You Know” tool which enables job seekers to see who they know at companies of interest within their LinkedIn contacts.

Any Simply Hired user can search for jobs with a staggering number of key words through numerous categories. Search categories, such as “Age 50+” make Simply Hired unique by appealing to niche communities that are often overlooked by most job sites. Results are sorted by relevance or date but can be filtered as many times as needed.Users who take the time to create an account can save their searches and get updates on new jobs they might like. Simply Hired has a rating system which allows it to recommend new jobs based on jobs you rated highly. The system essentially provides a set of search results that users may then narrow down themselves.
