DataCareer

Review:

DataCareer provides employers in the U.K. and Ireland with a good selection of tools to attract data professionals to their job vacancies. Standout features include the promotion of job ads on social media channels, content marketing solutions, a longer-than-average job post duration of 60 days, and job alert emails.

While the platform does not offer a free job posting plan, it is more affordable than its leading competitor, DataScientistJobs. Although job seekers can upload their CVs to the platform to be matched with suitable listings, the site does not mention a searchable CV database.

Pros:

• Employers can choose from several job posting plans that are tailored to different hiring needs.
• Job ads remain published for 60 days.
• Employers can create company profiles.
• The site offers content marketing solutions.
• Listings are shared with suitable, subscribed job seekers via job alert emails.
• The platform offers social media sharing.
• The Pro plan includes targeted Facebook and Google ads as well as a featured listing.
• Startups and nonprofits can receive a 50% discount.

Cons:

• There is no free job posting plan.
• The site does not feature an applicant tracking system or mention a searchable CV database.

Reputation:

On Facebook, DataCareer received a 5-star rating based on a handful of reviews. However, the feedback provided is only from a job seeker's perspective.

DataCareer vs. DataScientistJobs:
