Indeed Reviews

I want to share my experience with Indeed’s review system and how inconsistent it can be, especially when dealing with disputes between employers and former employees. In my situation, I received different answers from multiple support representatives when asking the same questions about how reviews are handled, whether employers are notified, and what happens when a review is removed or flagged, which made the process confusing and frustrating. I also experienced situations where a review or rating felt inaccurate or misleading, yet the platform still allowed certain parts to remain, such as a star rating even after written content was removed.

As an employer, I have been trying to update our employer profile but have been unsuccessful. The website just takes me in circles, which is frustrating enough. I submitted a ticket and have had the worst experience with the ticket, which has been open for a week. Apparently, according to my ticket, I can only be helped 3:00 AM to 11:00 AM Central Time.

Set my search parameters and Indeed sends little to nothing relevant. But a lot of job postings that do not match. Which is a waste of time. So much that now I don’t even bother to look at what is sent to me. Example: if I choose a company for whom I may be interested in a career opportunity, they send everything. I am not am I.T. , person, I am not an HR person, I definitely do not want a job in Texas, You get the idea. Either send something that matches or nothing at all, thank you.

I'm looking for a full time job, and Indeed sends part time jobs into the mix. I also think some of the job postings on it are a scam. I got contacted by one that set up an interview with me giving me an address to go to for the interview, and guess what, there was no such address. All of it was a total con!

I would not recommend to anyone!! Beware of cost and watch your credit card. Our office was charged over 2000.00 in one month. We put a budget on like we were told so this is absolutely ridiculous. I tried to contact indeed and the representative could care less and could not answer my questions. No response to emails either.

Hello, My company decided to use Indeed as they have done so many times before for free. However, the company decided to pay for posting this time around. Indeed, charged the company $354.00 for four days. They were very excited to use the pay feature in hopes of getting extreme hits. Unfortunately, that did not happen, and we were left very disappointed. We decided to call to get some answers to our concerns. We were told that we received 9000 views, 271 clicks, 44 started app, 39 applied, and out of all that we only actually had 22 candidates.

Hello... I honestly wouldn't even give Indeed a one star review! They are truly a joke. I have applied for sooooo many jobs, with only to get a response that they are moving forward with the next candidate. This company is a true scam! Folks, please don't waste your time!

EMPLOYERS BEWARE!! I was billed $164 for 3 days worth of job posting advertisements. I was told it was due to my budget & 79 clicks at $2.08 each? What??? Where was this info when I was posting? Customer service rep could care less - she has a schmeel she goes through over & over again to justify their untransparent billing. Super disappointed. Closed my account & removed my payment info.

If you were forced to resign from your previous place of employment due to events beyond your control e.g. medical, accident, injury, etc., this platform is a joke!! It forces the user to upload their resume, then from that the algorithm feeds openings that are based on your resume. I had sustained severe injuries as a result of a botched surgery to where I can no longer do physical tasks that my previous job(s) involved. Yet every listing Indeed sends me is physically demanding and requires the ability to do physical tasks I can no longer do.

This used to be a great place to view jobs. Now they make you log in and give your phone number so you can receive unsolicited calls from unqualified opportunities. Whoever thought this was a great business model was horribly wrong and missed the mark completely. I would venture a guess that business has dropped significantly in specialized professions. Good luck Indeed if this is your last ditch effort to capture revenue.

I had to post negative reviews on a handful of review sites, but posting here finally got someone from Indeed to take care of the matter on their end.

I just got scammed by a job offer that used a recruiter from Indeed. All the sudden I got about 10 offers from jobs I never applied for. They got my last four digits saying it was to make sure I was able to work in the USA.

I've received several text message verification codes attempting to verify my log in attempt. I was not trying to log in and believe that someone was trying to "hijack" my account. When attempting to reach out to Indeed I discovered that they have no customer service phone number, live chat or really any visible way to contact them to discuss this. What protocols are in place to prevent someone from using my name, telephone number, address and email address to create a fake account? How am I to protect myself from this?

Indeed is a Joke and I believe that half if not all the Job postings are a Dead end. I have Applied for numerous Job Listings that I am qualified for, but never receive Interviews or if I do go to Interview all of a sudden the Hiring CEO or Staff member had a Family Emergency and needs to Reschedule for another Interview date, but never receive a message or Phone call back from the Company.

First and foremost, you have it that you are looking for a job at a 15 mile distance from your home but I constantly receive out of your state posts and over 15 mile radius distance from my home. If I live in New Jersey, why would Indeed send me posts for jobs in Pennsylvania? Job posts sent to my email doesn’t fit my qualifications. I don’t recommend Indeed to anyone. I even received job posts that’s in California when I live in NJ.
