Indeed Reviews

Been a customer of Indeed smart sourcing for years. They recently updated the algorithm, using AI. It's now totally useless. Previously when searching for applicants for a specific job description, you would enter job, zip code, and dates when resumes were last updated. Typically this job would yield 15 to 20 resumes in the past three days.... It now gives hundreds, most of which are not remotely related to the job listed.... If this is AI in action, it's pretty stupid. We cancelled our service after 10 years.

Indeed is the worst hiring firm I have ever dealt with. I get candidates from stuff that has nothing to do with my business. Then they still bill you for every jackleg that clicks on the job post! I am in the automotive repair business; since when does someone working in a fast-food restaurant apply for an ASE automotive position with no experience? Yes, it is a very good platform for small-time hiring, but it is nonprofessional; don't waste your money, as I have!

Indeed appears to be completely AI operated now. Poorly AI operated. Using an AI created resume can not be read or integrated into there programming. You will have to manually enter all of your information manually.

I promoted a job on Indeed and marked it to have an end date. Indeed did not respect the time and charged me an exorbitant amount. They will blame it on clicks etc which is absolutely not clear in their deceptive practices. Do NOT use Indeed to promote any positions- BUYER BEWARE.

It's bad enough all the spam Indeed sends, the ghost jobs, the jobs RIPPED from other sites with the information completely incorrect (such as a coaching job for a school being listed on the district's site as having a $2,300 a season stipend but Indeed lists it as a monthly salary), etc. But their job search algorithm is now so messed up that you actually find a job within the parameters you give the search!

I ask for a brief review of my resume. She gave me some information and I chose to update the resume myself. When I went in to send my resume to another employer, she flagged my resume with red notes. I ask her to remove the notes. She would not remove them. Then she remove the notes.. My friend and I updated my resume and she then put notes on that resume. I am upset with Indeed. I did not give her permission or pay to update my resume.

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.
