Review:
Since 2013, AgHires has been helping employers connect with a range of farming and agricultural professionals across North America. Employers benefit from the advanced recruitment services, including branded company profiles, customized social media advertising, and 30-day job postings, to help simplify the hiring process.
Despite AgHires being costlier than most competitors, it stands out as a feature-rich platform, offering background check services, video job descriptions, and exposure on partner websites. Canadian job seekers can filter jobs by category, job type, and province to connect with local employers.
Pros:
- The platform uses customized, targeted social media advertising to promote listings to over 10,000 professionals.
- The "Max Hire" plan distributes job posts to a network of over 3,000 digital media and website partners.
- The platform offers professional, executive, and custom recruitment solutions.
- The "Max Plus" plan includes a video job description to help attract candidates.
- AgHires features a background check service for employers.
- Job posts are listed in the AgHires email newsletter.
- Employers can add screening questionnaires to job posts.
- The site features a range of additional resources, such as a blog, e-books, and hiring advice.
- Employers can create company profiles to help attract candidates.
Cons:
- There is no free job posting option.
- AgHires is costlier than competitors, such as FoodWork.ca and Job Bank.
- The site lacks a resume database of candidates for employers to browse through.
- The website is not available in French.
- Pricing is only available in U.S. dollars.
- There are no local offices or customer support channels in Canada.

AgHires vs. FoodWork.ca:
FoodWork.ca caters exclusively to the Canadian job market, whereas AgHires focuses on the U.S. audience. FoodWork.ca is the more affordable option, charging C$100.00 for a standard job post. However, it lacks the advanced recruitment features offered by AgHires, such as background check services and partner website syndication.
AgHires vs. AgCareers.com:
AgCareers.com and AgHires are similar farming job boards with features such as social media promotion and custom recruitment services. AgCareers.com has local Canadian offices and customer support, but AgHires features background check services and video job descriptions, which the former lacks.
AgHires vs. Job Bank:
Job Bank is the Canadian government's official job board and offers employers a free job posting service, making it better for employers on a tight budget. Job Bank has a larger audience in Canada; however, AgHires is a more feature-rich platform, and offers employers access to a specialized network of agricultural professionals.
