Jobboard Finder’s opinion
Summary: Created in 2008 by Dridco, ZonaJobs belongs to Navent since it was sold in 2015. Navent owns many other websites, inlcuding Bumeran (the first Argentinian job board), ZonaProp and UniversoBit. It is a generalist job board in Argentina and it attracts 1.72 million visits a month (making it the third on the list of top job boards in Argentina, which it has remained for quite some time)! The founder and current CEO of the group is Nicolás Tejerina; more information on the team and the timeline is available on the Navent website (but not on the ZonaJobs site). Even if there are no links, ZonaJobs is present on social media: 15 400 followers on Youtube (for about a hundred videos), 1 170 644 on Facebook, about 98 200 on Twitter (which has actually gone down) and 241 115 Linkedin.
Design: ZonaJobs doesn’t mess around: you came for jobs and that’s what you’re going to get from the moment you enter the site. The search engine (keywords and the location) appears at the top of the page with job offers filling up the rest of the page (in a grid). You can even use the filters (the publication date, the level in the company, the location, the type of hours, handicap-friendly, young professionals, type of work environment and the salary) on the homepage. In the job listing, the offers appear in a list and display useful information (which also appears at the top of the offer when it is opened). You can sort them by relevance or newness. Some offers have logos and the disability-friendly jobs have a wheelchair icon.
The job board objective: ZonaJobs (which menas “Jobs Zone”) aims to be the go-to place for hires and career changes.
Recruiter observations: To advertise, you need a fiscal number (CUIT), but you can create your advert through the site without contacting anyone if you have one. The prices are on the website. Recruiters can include additional questions for candidates. In the footer, you can see the most sort after jobs in Agrentina.
Jobseeker observations: When applying to a job, you have to provide your salary expectations. If you create an account, you need to provide your desired job.
The job offers: There are 20 400 job offers. Most are in sales and admin and there are mostly entrance level positions. The number of job offers has exploded over the past couple of years.
Reactivity: --
Special features: The blog (nothing new since 2018); mobile-friendly site; the disability options; the job of the moment; the emphasis on the salary; the work environment filter.
Verdict: ZonaJobs is definitely the jobs zone. If you’re advertising in Argentina, this job board is definitely a good choice for your job offers.
