Posting a job on FindMeAJob.co.nz is completely free — no credit card, no contract, no invoice at the end of the month.
How much does it cost to post a job on Seek NZ?
Seek NZ uses a paid listing model. Pricing varies by listing type and changes periodically, so check Seek's website directly for current rates. What's consistent is that standard listings carry a per-post fee, and costs rise if you want featured placement or access to their larger candidate database. For businesses hiring regularly, those fees add up quickly.
What does it cost to post on FindMeAJob.co.nz instead?
A standard listing on FindMeAJob is free. You set up a free employer account — it takes about two minutes — then write your listing and publish. No fee, no trial period that converts to a subscription. If you want extra visibility, optional paid upgrades are available: a Pro listing for a one-off $29, or Unlimited listings for $99 per month. But posting one role, or ten roles, at the standard tier costs nothing.
What do you actually get with a free listing?
This is where FindMeAJob works differently from a traditional job board. Every application doesn't just land in your inbox as a raw CV — it arrives as an AI hiring brief, automatically scored against your job description. You can see at a glance which candidates best match your requirements, without reading every application from scratch. All candidates are NZ-based, so you're not filtering out overseas applicants.
You manage everything through your employer dashboard, and you'll get email notifications when new applications come in.
What are the practical differences between the two platforms?
- Cost: Seek charges per listing; FindMeAJob standard listings are free
- AI screening: FindMeAJob scores every applicant against your job description automatically
- Candidate location: FindMeAJob candidates are NZ-only
- Account requirement: Both require an employer account — FindMeAJob's takes about two minutes to set up
- Upgrades: FindMeAJob offers Pro ($29 one-off) and Unlimited ($99/month) if you want more reach
- Contract: FindMeAJob has no lock-in; post when you need to
For small businesses, sole traders, or any employer watching the hiring budget, the maths is straightforward.
