Jobboard Finder’s opinion
Summary: AllJobs is the leading job board in Isreal and attracts as many as 1.78 million views a month! The national generalist job board was launched in 2004 by the founders Herzl Ozer, Niv Ariel, Gadi Schwadron and Revital Hendler, who continue to follow its success on the board of directors. Today, Revital Hendler shows an interest in learning and student empowerment. As for AllJobs, it has been sold to a the Russian company, HeadHunter (HH.ru)and then to Yedioth Ahronoth (an Israeli newspaper and media group). Even if all the social media isn’t present on the website, AllJobs has 82 651 followers on Facebook, 3 140 on YouTube, 3 104 on Linkedin and 1 925 on Twitter.
Design: AllJobs is particularly colourful, both professional and quirky and has an eyeball mascot wearing a builder’s helmet. To use the search engine, you need a keyword. The homepage makes a point of showcasing the different services on the website, but clearly, the jobseeker is the main focus. The search engine (keywords) and the job alerts take up the top of the page, as do some figures on the side to prove the website success. You can also look up one keyword or you can use the different categories (type of work, location, role and industry). As you scroll down, you can see the offers on an interactive map, the articles and other specific topics in the footer. In the “About Us” section, you’ll find a timeline, photos of the team and more key figures, not to mention the smart design of the page. Even if you can view the job offers without an account, some features are limited to users, like binning the irrelevant offers in the list. That said, the information is clear and the vacancies can be sorted by the publication date, the relevance or the proximity. The company pages are customised and they include a backdrop image, a logo, a map, job offers and an about us section. Some offers indicate if they target students or older jobseekers.
The job board objective: AllJobs has revolutionized the job search in Israel and continues to do so.
Recruiter observations: Recruiters do not have to reveal the name of the company. When you create your advert through the website, the prices appear at the end to finalise the order. If you would like to contact the team as an international recruiter, your best option is Whatsapp.
Jobseeker observations: As a jobseeker, you can opt for the free account or the VIP account (which includes more advice and information on your profile). You need a (recognised) phone number to create an account, which can prove difficult.
The job offers: There are 32 470 job offers.
Reactivity: They answer quickly on chat support. You can write in English. You can also contact the team through Whatsapp.
Special features: The hundreds of Youtube videos; the eye with a yellow worker’s hat logo; AllJob VIP; CV rewriting (at a cost); the blog (no dates); the testimonial page; the worker rights section; chat support; the detailed page on CV writing (includes videos and example CVs in English and Hebrew); the salary calculator and table (in Hebrew); the number of recruiters that have recruited today; the over 50 friendly offers; the app.
Verdict: AllJobs can be a bit difficult for foreign users because of the limited language options and the phone number requirements. That said, it is a clear leader in Israel so if you are looking for work or recruiting, it might be time to learn Hebrew.
