Indeed

Over the past couple of weeks, it has been a lot of struggle. Even though we have been using indeed for the past 1 year but now they keep on disabling our employer account. And the reason they give every time is that your post doesn't fulfill the quality standards or your account is not verified even though all the processes are complete and the account is verified as well. We have appealed every single time but no use. Even if we get the account back zero resumes are received for the job post. This behavior is beyond understanding and has been a continuing frustration for us.

Sent everything in to verify our business. Finally got that approved. Then posted our job in a few locations. Sponsered them on and off for 3 months. Added a new location in michigan, and next thing I now they have flagged all of our job postings then disabled my account. So we have paid over 1k to indeed and now dont even have access to our applicants. They couldnt give me a reason why it was disabled. We will be getting lawyers involved. So if anyone else has had similar experiences please reach out. We can make this a class action lawsuit.

I have sourced a few hires from Indeed, the site definitely allows for a good source of talent. It is a little difficult to filter through all of the applicants though. There also seems to be a lot of people who apply that do not fit the criteria, but that will inevitably happen and is the job of HR/hiring managers to identify good candidates from here.

I'm a job seeker looking for remote work. Indeed.com hooks you up with jobs from all kinds of industries, including remote work. Indeed allows you to personalize your job seeker experience, so that the right companies and industries find you.

The jobs that indeed sent me our scams, very in depth scams and I do NOT recommend using this site to find employment. They must sell our information to outside sources who take advantage and offer bogus jobs with offer letters, fake checks, and empty promises. Extremely disappointed and I tell everyone I know to stay away from indeed.

Recently made an account for my new fabrication shop and posted 3 ads for hiring Metal Fabricators, Welders and skilled laborers for my shop opening up at the end of the month. I have a great deal of work to get done in a short amount of time and am in urgent need of hiring. Indeed is the #1 place to go for hiring in my city and there is not much for alternatives. I see so many other reviews like and am deeply troubled by this issue... hoping for a quick resolution and a chance to speak to someone that can show some empathy for myself, our applicants, and would be employees... HELP

Indeed did respond to my request for appeal but is asking for documents that at this time can't be provided, My shop is currently in the renovation phase and there are no utility bills to be had, and tax permits are not a thing in Canada

Have now had direct support from Indeed to investigate and resolve the issue. It now looks like our account has been enabled. A pity it took so long for this to happen, but thanks Indeed support for resolving once we were able to make contact.

I have been trying to use indeed for 6 months. I consistently get jobs that are the wrong profession. If you are a medical provider like an NP, PA, etc, they are not a great place to search. I get alerted all day to jobs that are medical in some way but never the right profession. I have updated my profile 3 times and the alerts never change. Go to donate or a mid level provider site. Do not use indeed.

As an Employer I cannot respond to reviews. One reviewer said they worked at a position that we never had for a department that we never had. Of course the review was extremely negative. Mmm, competition flame anyone!

With no prior advise and during a selection process that was really important to my small business account was deactivated and all people that applied is no longer visible and than reachable after payment completed. We would hire...

I have been experiencing my account being disabled a couple of times just for this year and they always reason out that my account was compromised. I tried changing my password as per instruction, I also tried getting in touch with a QA, but no resolution was given. I can't contact them as there's no way to communicate with them. I lost a lot of candidates because of this. It is frustrating.

UPDATE: Issue has been resolved

I just created an account on behalf of employer, posted a job and opted to pay for the sponsored ads. The job posting went live, but after a few hours I received an email that my account was disabled. I've read the terms and conditions and I did not see any violations on my posting.

The account was verified. So I don't really understand why the account suddenly got disabled without any specific reason.

This is our first time to use this platform. I love it at first because it's user-friendly however we are really disappointed and frustrated right now because of this issue. And upon reading the reviews, it seems that it is a common issue. The account being disabled for no specific reason and there's no one to reach out to for a customer chat support.

Can someone reach out to me directly on my email to resolve this issue?

There's no way of requesting feedback from employers using when applying for jobs straight from the indeed app. I've been applying for a long time now and not once have I heard anything back, although I've been very well suited to the jobs I apply for.
I'd like to know where I'm going wrong to not be seen for an interview, and there is no other way to track any progress.
I'm going to stop using indeed unless I know that my application is actually getting through and seen. I have no faith in this site now.

So since we can't put a job ad in the newspaper anymore, I decided to use indeed. I have been thrilled with the great customer service my contact person at indeed has provided. I am very tough to please.
Christine is my new best friend. It can be difficult to find good candidates and the service Christine and indeed has provided me, as a small biz owner, has been superb.

My employer account was disabled for no reason. Tried to make a new account with a new position and that was disabled as well. They give you an option to appeal, but they don't consider what you have to stay. Small businesses should avoid indeed.

Inundated with time wasters who weren't even close to being qualified. Most candidates failed to answer my two qualifying questions correctly but still wasted my time by submitting their CV's. Service needs improving.
I won't use it again as rejecting time-wasters is a wind up and Indeed should reject these people for me.

So called employees left reviews which are outright lies yet indeed wont remove them. Truly regret doing business with them. Dont know if it is my competitors, someone we didnt hired, or someone that was let go for poor performance.

I just signed up and started posting jobs on indeed, shortly afterwards I received notification that my account was suddenly disabled. I appealed the decision and provided the proper supporting documentation: Business Number and Incorporating documents, to prove who I am and where I'm located, but it didn't seem to do anything and my account was not reinstated. They disabled my account without telling me why or even if I have another chance.

After posted a job and having 50 cvs sent to me my account has been disabled and I can not repost.
Looks like this is a regular thing but there's no reason provided which must be very annoying for candidates.

I'm not sure why there's so much negativity here, but I've had wonderful experiences using indeed as a job seeker. My current position was obtained through indeed and I couldn't be more content with it.

I've had the same 1 star experience as many other businesses here where the account was suddenly blocked and nobody could provide any extra information. Agents over the phone kept promising it's with the 'internal team' and somebody will get back to me within 48 hours or within 3 business days, but that never happened. All I got was an email with a link to their FAQs. I have become too reliant on Indeed for recruiting and this has really impacted the business. We had paid campaigns and an active account for close to a year and fine-tuned our marketing efforts based on Indeed campaigns. I need an explanation at least and some chance to fix whatever the issue was, not a ban and then ghosting.

Indeed first disabled my account because they did not believe my business was real. I submitted the documents and they reinstated it. Now after 40+ resumes they have disabled if again and provided no reason what so ever. When we contacted indeed customer service they stated that the final decision was made by quality control and their is no number to contact them and I need to appeal which could take another week. This has created a lot of undue stress this website is supposed to alleviate. Now it makes our business look week while we are offering full time jobs with RRSP and benefits in a community that lacks jobs and many struggle with staying above the poverty line. What a disappointment. I would 100% advise everyone to avoid them.

For the most part, you can find good jobs but it's not always accurate. Some jobs aren't hiring but it website shows that they are. I also think they need a wide variety of work from home job options.
