Review:

Launched in 1999, Fish4jobs is a digital job board linked to the Reach PLC publisher network in the U.K. The site offers employers the option of posting a single online ad, or utilizing the resources of their newspaper distribution network. For job seekers, Fish4jobs focuses on local listings with options to search by category, location, or job type.

Pros:

  • The platform includes comprehensive company profiles and employer branding services.
  • Job posts are sent to relevant candidates via daily emails.
  • The Premium Job Advert plan includes a print advert in core newspaper titles, such as The Chronicle and Liverpool Echo.
  • Fish4jobs offers a comprehensive CV database of candidates.
  • The site reportedly receives over 1.6 million job seekers each month.
  • The company offers a native iOS app.
  • Jobs can be searched by location, sector, or type.

Cons:

  • There is no free job posting option.
  • The platform is costlier than competitors, such as Reed.co.uk and Totaljobs.
  • The site lacks social media promotion and job board syndication.

Reputation:

Fish4jobs received a poor rating on Trustpilot with many users claiming their service is overpriced and underwhelming.

Fish4jobs vs. Reed.co.uk:

Reed.co.uk receives significantly more website traffic than Fish4jobs. In addition, the platform is the more affordable option, charging £89.00 +VAT per job post compared to Fish4jobs' pricing of £165.00 +VAT per post. Both platforms offer a CV database; however, Fish4jobs also posts job ads in a range of local publications.

Fish4jobs vs. Totaljobs:

Totaljobs is a leading job board in the U.K. that offers employers access to a global audience of candidates, whereas Fish4jobs only caters to the U.K. market, which may be better for targeted hiring. Totaljobs charges new customers £89.00 +VAT per post while Fish4Jobs does not have a special rate for new members and charges £165.00 +VAT per post.

Fish4jobs vs. CV-Library:

CV-Library is more affordable than Fish4jobs, charging £75.00 +VAT per job post compared to Fish4jobs' price of £165.00 +VAT per post. Both platforms feature a CV database but CV-library offers social media promotion and job board syndication to over 800 partner sites, which Fish4jobs lacks, offering employers greater exposure.
