Best for posting jobs to many boards from one dashboard
JobTarget distributes job postings to thousands of boards and programmatic sites, with sourcing, candidate management, video screening and compliance tools. It's centred on advertising and works beside 80+ ATS and HRIS systems rather than in place of them, and the prices are behind a demo.
Who JobTarget is for
- Fits if you want one place to push jobs to many boards
- Works for federal contractors who need compliance reporting
Who JobTarget is not for
- Skip it if you want an ATS, because the site says it works with yours
- Not for you if you want a price: the site points to a demo
- Watch out: board prices may vary by board and spend, and the site doesn't say how
- Tight if you want a free plan or trial, as none is listed
Why JobTarget gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo price is published, so we can't set it against the $74 to $149 a month this category charges. That leaves it at C.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan and no trial is listed; the site routes you to a demo. A demo request isn't a trial.
- CFeaturesJob advertising marketplace, programmatic ads, a sourcer, candidate manager and compliance tools. It works alongside an ATS rather than replacing one.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record, and the listing shows boards and ad spend to manage. That puts it at C.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb product that says it works with 80+ ATS and HRIS systems. No desktop or phone app, so B.

Keep JobTarget, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace JobTarget you would be making jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 48 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools grade higher.
What you could make
- Reports and applicant tracking: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board.
What this rests on. JobTarget’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
