Indeed Reviews

The following day I was able to get the issue resolved.

I've used Indeed for a few years to look for jobs and even put up a resume. I'm tired of receiving possible jobs that are against the specifics I put in place. After reading these reviews, I'm deleting my account. From bad customer service to questionable practices are all detailed here by others reviews and it doesn't look good for Indeed. Indeed it does not.

I am writing this review to share my recent experience with Indeed, which has been both perplexing and frustrating. As the owner of PRG, a remote staffing agency, I attempted to set up an account with Indeed to post jobs and source applicants. However, the process hit a roadblock when Indeed paused our account, citing inability to verify our business.

As a business owner seeking to utilize Indeed for recruiting, my experience has been overwhelmingly negative and unprofessional. After creating an employer account, I diligently submitted over ten documents, including essential insurance and state license information. Despite this, it took an excessively long three days to merely post a job listing. Further aggravating the situation, after investing $700 in promoting the roles to attract quality candidates, my account was abruptly blocked without explanation. This sudden action resulted in the loss of all my potential candidates and the cancellation of meticulously scheduled interviews.

Nobody rates Indeed more than 1 star because otherwise you cannot leave feedback. They don't have any contact information but they keep your resume and contact info. When I have decided to follow up my telephone interviews I found these individuals don't work for the companies they claimed are working. Indeed used to send e-mails requesting to complete "an assessments" so at first I could not figure out why my results were so poor. All my exams I have had in the past, tests have been completed with a score from 97 to 100, so I have scratched my head trying to understand what is going on.

Terrible. I have been ignored around 4 different times. You can never reach them. They always over charge you for a services that you don't even get. Candidates are underqualified but they still charge you a daily marketing amount. You try to talk to a rep and you get ignored for months. I have been ignored for 6 months at times. I wish they had a better job engine platform. Don't go with Indeed.

So many 1 star reviews tells you a lot. Indeed offered a 3 day trial, and I was told that a day before the trial was to end, I was suppose to get an email, to give me a heads up, I agreed and took the trial. The day before my trial was to end, I got no emails whatsoever. So on the 3rd day, I went on the site trying to figure out how to cancel my trial. Apparently, there's no cancel, they assume you know how to end a trial yourself, by closing a job you had opened. I'm thinking, once the trial is over, I'd get some kind of message. I got nothing. Finally, I got a hold of someone, and they told me, I had to close my job I had posted, but no charges accrued, so I'm good. Today, I got an invoice, they took 61 dollars from my card. Be aware, once your card is on file, you can't take it off, or delete your profile. You're stuck with them. Stay away from trials.

I got an interview with an employer, verified all the correct information just to find out that, that store was not hiring even though they posted for a position. I've noticed that alot of these posts are over 30 days old and are never filtered or removed from the site. I think Indeed cashes in on desperate people and bait and switch them. It's cruel and very unprofessional to job seekers. I miss the days of going in person to apply instead of trusting internet job boards that prove to be scammy and deceptive. I too have had issues where it seems like you apply and your resume is sent into space to never hear from prospective companies. It's best to cut out these job boards and go directly to the company instead.

Indeed.com job board allows too many supposed companies to post supposed jobs on their boards. They appear to have no filter or real means of filtering or verifying the person or persons allowed to post jobs. People like myself looking desperately for a job go on this board hoping to find a job. Only to find out after spending time and sometimes money the posting nothing more than a scam to scam money. Sometimes, worse. Identity theft or they sell your personal information. Be wary of Indeed and if you have other options than to use Indeed, I suggest you utilize those options. Good luck in your job search.

Indeed gave my information including my phone numbers to companies I was not interested in working for. I received a call for interview from a company trying to hire me for cold calling which is ILLEGAL in my state. I did not give them permission to give my information to this company and now am receiving calls from pushy employers trying to sign me up for a job that is ILLEGAL in my state. Now I am wasting my time answering these calls that I could instead spend looking for a REAL job
