I have noticed that Indeed does not fulfill its discrimination policy and that employers are rejecting me for jobs because of my skin color. I have found indeed useful and have even found a job with using indeed but the jobs I am offered are very few jobs. For the month of June of 2025 until now I have been looking for a job on indeed but found none.

Indeed has poor customer service, total lack of concern to actually try and address an issue. Up until a week ago I could go onto their site and filter jobs by industry. No longer. What had been taking me 15-20 minutes now takes multiple hours. You spend countless time having to manually sort through hundreds to at times thousands of non-relevant posting trying to find the ones that I had been able to pull up in seconds. Reached out to customer service and the ** just keeps telling me that it's not their issue, that filtering by industry is dictated by individual companies. What a crock of bull**. Customer Service at Indeed is just a bunch of incompetent ** just drawing a paycheck for no real work.

Hi, Danny! Our Product Teams at Indeed are always working to improve our Job Seekers' experience. The specific filter you are speaking about, "Industry" has been removed as a test. The "Industry" filter can now be searched for using the 'what' and the 'where' boxes (e.g. 'medical content writer,' 'technology content writer,' etc.). We are not sure if this specific filter will return. Your feedback about the filter and its usefulness has been passed along to the correct teams!

I have a company in Vermont and created an employer account on Indeed sometime last month. It was somehow connected to 17 reviews, all from Texas, Illinois, Minnesota and one from New York with dates ranging from 2019 to 2024. It's very simple to Google the name of the company in these states and find out that they also have companies with the same name. These reviews are obviously not about my business in Vermont, they are about the businesses in the states that they live in. I spoke with someone over the phone for quite a while, trying to rectify the situation. I had her send me an email covering our conversation as well as a request to have the reviews deleted or just not attached to my company.
I got another email asking for any added information that I had, so I added all of my information. I got an email back saying, "It appears that your request may require specialized attention and our Client Success team can better assist you. Please view our Help Center for further assistance with this issue." So they're just done helping me now? They want me to search through their company website (again), figure out who I should talk to (again), go through all of these issues (again) with yet another person, instead of just forwarding my information to the correct person within their company to help me. This is all so unethical and horrible management for their customers. This shouldn't be a difficult issue. I'm sure there are better sites to advertise job openings. I'm honestly shocked and appalled at how this has been treated and dismissed.

Indeed is currently a very poor job search website. They post the same jobs over and over again when you forward to the next page when viewing by date. Indeed used to be a number 1 website for jobs, however they have not kept up with the changing times. Fewer companies are using Indeed.

Hi Debra, to explain, our search engine will always show results based on relevance. If a job title has very limited availability in a location, our search engine will automatically show other jobs beyond your initial search query.
To get the most relevant results, we recommend using a Boolean search.

I have had the most difficult time paying an invoice. Back in March 2025 they removed my job posting due to some technicalities and when I got an email to pay my invoice I couldn't even access my account to pay it. Fast forward to a few weeks ago when I spoke to an agent on chat they were able to somehow enable the ability for me to update billing and pay. Well, lo and behold I have used multiple different cards to make payment and each time it tells me my card is declined. Lol I spoke to a lady today after I was told to call and they would help. Well that's not what happened. She wanted to submit another ticket. Lol I have more tickets opened on Indeed to try to give them my money.
At this point they can send it to collections for all I care. I even asked if I could make a payment by check and all they could tell me was the best option is to provide my banking details. Lol What?? They wanted me to contact my bank and credit card companies to see why they were not allowing indeed's charges to go through. I don't think so. I input at least 4 cards. Lol This is on indeed and not me. Worst experience ever!!!

In my experience using Indeed, I have found that it implies that employers have created the job postings you are looking at. However, their job listings are scraped off of other websites, they have AI constantly searching through internal job boards (for example jimmyjohns.com) So when JJ's posts a job listing it gets automatically pulled over to indeed. I don't understand how these companies are supposed to know that they have to check indeed for resumes rather than their own internal job boards. So, here is the real kick: For some reason, the information is not completely transferred over, it appears to leave out strings that match "Apply Within" or "In Person Applications Only". Those very important notes will be removed from the original posting by indeed, whether purposefully or otherwise, I do not know. I highly recommend using indeed to search, but not to apply.

Yet another 1-star review... The invoice practice are DECEITFUL. The first partial month, I received an invoice. There was mention that if you did nothing, your credit card would be charged ... only an address to remit a check to. So I sent them a check. Two days later, my credit card was charged. I sent an email, waited a week for the request to trickle down to accounting and then waited two weeks for the refund to be posted to my card. THEN, the second month... for 6 days, (although I think it was either 4 or 5) I was charged "an average of $44", which should come to $264, except I was charged $296. I called them. The agent and his supervisor were condescending, explaining that some days were more, some days less, and an average is somewhere in between (I have a doctorate degree...). And simply deflected my questions on how the math came. So... this is my only recourse. And never plan to use them again.

Plus when I search for a job and find one I like it immediately states the position is closed. However, if I go to the actual Company site for that position they are still hiring.

I am a consultant so I essentially interview for a living. I just experienced the crappiest 'interview' on Indeed for a job with the same project mgmt title as I have now - only to realize it was actually for a warehouse fulfillment job! The tech mgr conducting it was taking notes the whole time, but also never made an effort to look at me on camera or make any sense of connection. He abruptly cut me off at minute 13 of a 15 minute interview. I asked if I could ask questions to only be told only if they/HR deemed me a fit (for the bait and switch job). I then said thank you and disconnected him, and promptly received the 'not selected by employer' message. I did report this posting on multiple sites - so why is it allowed to remain up?

They seem to have a lot of ghost job postings. When you apply to them - With having all the qualifications on the job posting, but when you apply through Indeed, you get an instant rejection, but the job is never filled even after 6 months. Although, we you don't go through Indeed and apply directly to the employer's website, you get an interview and the Employer said "We never got to review your resume, if we did we would have never rejected your application!" It's Indeed's ATS system that rejects you most of the time, even for a simple gap in employment date, or 1st time employment seekers, etc.

I guarantee I won't get a response from them, but here goes. I used to like Indeed for their reliability and quality of jobs, until recently. Like the last 3 years. They use absolutely NOTHING but bots, now. No one reads your resume, no one calls or messages you back when applying. And when they do, IF they do, it's a turndown. Now, my resume is more than worthy of a simple reply. But, why would I, when it's bots reading it? Bots looking for "keywords" and if they don't find those words, then you might as well not exist.
Indeed's quality of reliable jobs is absolutely non-existent, now. It's sad and disappointing. Because what is the point of having your site running if you're not listing any companies that are ACTUALLY looking at our resumes. Actually, calling or contacting you back. So, yeah. Indeed is about as worthy as an old coupon from 1987: Pointless. Do yourselves a favor, and find another place to find jobs. That employ HUMANS and not bots. They're a whole system of clowns behind Indeed, now. Smh.

I attempted to use Indeed to hire an employee. After the excessive setup and completing the account verification, everything seemed to be going fine.

Indeed you are a complete JOKE!!! I've been using Indeed since I got out of high school. It's been ok for the most part. A few things that are noticed on Indeed from my POV are the amount of dumb questions Indeed ask you for your whole profile page. Indeed has started to just suck overall. It's started for me in May of 2024. Indeed needs to fix a lot of stuff. Job listings that are 50/50 meaning half are real half are fake. Another is employers posting these listings and when you apply for a job they take 2-3 weeks to even get back with you. I've had TONS of employers just not get back with me.
Personally I think if you are an employer you should get that listing notification via email and have to reply within that week or your listing gets taken down automatically. The employers also say, "Please value our time" but they don't value potential candidate's time. It's a 2 way street. If you aren't going to value my time I'm not going to value yours. Another thing that should be listed in applications doing a 2 step interview process should have to LIST that they have a 2 step interview process. I've had this happen so many times where I get through both of the interviews just for them to say NO.
Reporting a job listing to Indeed is a JOKE. They don't even take it down if you know it's fake or too good to be true. I've created another PFP for a test experiment to see if it's me having issues but no. In fact every online forum I read is all about how Indeed is just a joke like their "Partner" Glassdoor. My brother and close friends and other people I know are having this same issue. I've used Indeed since I was out of HS and now it's complete trash. Someone needs to shut these guys down for good.

Indeed is supposed to be a site where employees and former employees can review their experience working for an employer among other things. I wrote an honest account of my time working for Clean Harbors Environmental Services. My comments centered on the negative consequences of the blatant nepotism within the company structure. I wrote a professional commentary that was free from profanity and yet my review was removed without given me a reason why or even informing me of the removal. Indeed essentially replaced my review with a 5 star company review with the title “great job,” with a comment “featured review: Clean Harbors has selected this as a representative review.”
If indeed is allowing the companies that are being reviewed to have input on what reviews appear on the top of the search results, then I think the forum is worthless. Censoring negative comments about companies and promoting positive ones tells me all I need to know. Don’t waste your time with indeed. Their reviews are clearly not representative of the facts.
