What are users saying about jobactive Job Seeker

C70%
by C####:

Completely and incredibly terrible. Not user friendly? Government Enforced to use the website? Can't find a job because there is no jobs that have keywords "no experience needed" besides direct sales (commission based jobs)

S70%
by S####:

Why do i have to log in eveytime i open the app? Why does the app not look like it does in the pics? Why is it easier to use the MyGov portal to Centrelink than use this app? Uninstalled. Terribly designed app. Do not bother installing people. Stay away.

P70%
by P####:

Every single time I open this app I have to get a code sent to my phone. I use the code, it then tells me to link my account with mygov account. I link the account from a computer and need another code sent to my phone to log in. Once I close it I have to do all of that again, every single time

M70%
by M####:

Still horrible to use, and yet is now mandatory for all job seekers? I'm sorry but this is absolute horseshit.

J70%
by J####:

So many required permissions before installing! Why? The other main ones didn't require any!

K70%
by K####:

Forced to login every time; why can't you remember me?

M70%
by M####:

Keeps crashing. Have to login every time it starts/restarts.

D70%

Dont bother.

M70%
by M####:

Hi, could you please tell me if there is a way to change your resume. I've only just relized that i have been using my old one. It would also be great if you could make it so we dont have to sign in every time we want to use the app.

M70%
by M####:

It has a convuluted sign in feature (unlike Centerlink Express Plus), the app is not user friendly, and the layout could use an upgrade. Serious work needs to be done on this app!

G70%
by G####:

Why give access to external links to apply for jobs. If you apply for one of these jobs the app logs you out. Also the feature to add applied for jobs from external links doesn't work

K70%
by K####:

Keeps coming up with a message saying back-end server not available

M70%
by M####:

Why need so many permissions?

X70%
by X####:

Utterly useless

E70%
by E####:

Absolute trash

M70%
by M####:

More hoop jumping and paperwork to create busy work for those who have jobs - and whose job is to manage those who are unemployed... and a badly designed, unfriendly app... no excuse, when so many people will be using it, to not make an app easy to use and functional as well... A 'job seeking - apply for the job" app should have been better... from the nag screen to upgrade, yet I am running the latest version... then the clumsy log-on... and then... Strike three... Uninstalled... Stick to the Web version...

O70%
by O####:

The app has an add that refers you here for an update that is non existant and requires you to sign into mygov it does not remember id or password - give it a miss...

M70%
by M####:

Why make us go to my gov every time to log in this is pointless who has time for that. Sarina russo is forcing us to use this and we cant and i bet we get in trouble

M70%
by M####:

Oh my this app is horrible. Why not hire one of the Job Seekers to make a new one? Wouldn't be too hard... As long as the app worked they'd have done the job better

M70%
by M####:

For a government website, it is alarming how many scam jobs are listed, by people trying to steal personal information, requiring you to send your resume to a hotmail or gmail account. As for the app, it requires you to continually log in, a process tied to mygov, which is very inconvenient.

M70%
by M####:

Get rid of MyGov and everyone's problem will be resolved, it is really that simple......

M70%
by M####:

Useless. Was ok 6 months or so ago, now utterly f'd.

M70%
by M####:

This is a very poorly designed app

L70%
by L####:

Terrible old apps was much better and easier to use

M70%
by M####:

Not at all useful

G70%
by G####:

Waste of time. .

I70%
by I####:

I am NOT ok with the permissions this app requests. I only use this to report job searches, NOT to get possibly spied on around the clock. And the app is awful also.

Q70%
by Q####:

Just crap

A70%
by A####:

Very good

Prick of an app to login to! Why no shortcuts?

P70%

App totally no longer works i login an get a instant error.

F70%
by F####:

How the hell can you release an app and maintain it so poorly that it doesn't even log in?

T70%
by T####:

Seems fine

T70%
by T####:

Spyware

T70%
by T####:

Useless ,,,

T70%
by T####:

I hate how you have to always login I wish there was a option so you can save the username. Hopefully it improves. Make it easier

T70%
by T####:

I managed to create an account, eventually, got part way through logging in and then got stuck because the app won't let me scroll down to click the 'next' button. I can't log in or connect my account or do anything because of this one bug. WTF

T70%
by T####:

Terrible app...there are other apps far better out there...what were they thinking when they put this example of mediocrity out for public use?

W70%
by W####:

Where are these developers hired? The website doesn't work, the app doesn't work. Nothing works.
