Indeed

We are a newly opened bar and grill trying to hire staff and Indeed suspended my employer profile with no warning or explanation whatsoever. This seems to be a common occurrence for Indeed as this is not the first review that reflects these practices. Why is Indeed bullying small businesses? Must be the $$ they get from corporate restaurants for premium job postings that they give them "a little extra" by suppressing the little guys. What a pitiful service

Like many, after posting a job offer, and accumulating candidates, we got an email saying our ability to post jobs is disabled (along with all the applications to the job.)

We tried appealing that, providing all the documentation requested, and got hit with this:
"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."

Guess what? There is no way to reach the mythical client success team if your Employer account is disabled.
Also, after they sent that message to you, they will ignore any further communication from you.

Just abysmal. Stay away.

I have used indeed for many years throughout my time as a recruiter, since setting up my own Ltd company I had created an indeed account, sent in all required documentation, posted my jobs and sponsored them, only to have my account disabled, I've appealed the decision twice, emailed them 3 times and called them twice and still have no reason or resolution in place. This has been going on for 8 days. Will move to zip recruiter and not use indeed any longer.

Indeed can allow your job offer to be seen (or not) - it's all a game played depending on how much money you pay. They can stop it from being seen if too many people "click" or if you simply don't spend enough money daily. Many job seekers use this site, so it can still be beneficial - providing you spend enough money daily. One great thing about Indeed is that you can request that applicants do some testing before they are considered for your open position through Indeed, with no extra cost. So, if you need, for example, "attention to detail" you can see how an applicant scores in that area right up front. Bad news is, plenty of applicants are too lazy to do the tests - no fault of Indeed, just the way of the world today.

This has always been one of my top search engines for new jobs, it pools together all the roles you need.

But overtime I've noticed this company has fallen down a bit. They spam your emails, texts, and even WhatsApp and it's quite difficult to turn off.

There's some bugs and issues with the app too and sometimes it makes me feel that there are better alternatives.

You're still good, Indeed, but I think you need to pull it together before you slip even further.

It's free. It's a wonderful tool for searching for applicable jobs (other than it occasionally refers me to jobs that really don't fit simply as a result of some key words showing up somewhere in the text of the inapplicable job description), including management and executive level positions. I've used it to submit resumes direct to employers. Now if someone can help to get the attention of the companies' recruiters after their "don't call us we'll call you" email response...

Job search meta-engine. Also presents searches for salaries, trends and forums, though i have not used the last three past a glance. The search engine produces listings aggregating results from CL, the local paper, dice.com, monster, CareerBuilder, LinkedIn and various other job search sites. Allows for changing distance from target location. Useful filters on the left side to display only certain salary ranges, titles, etc. easy to read and navigate, straightforward and though not all encompassing (e.g. Will not include dept. of Labor listings, etc) it does present information from a wide cross-section of other sites.

Indeed is a platform that allows employers and employees to contact one another. I have had a positive experience finding my first job I could actually call a career from here, but other than that job, I haven't had as much luck.

There are some questionable jobs out there. The worst are the headhunters, usually for a major company. They are all offering the same job across several networks and claiming varying pay rates.

The assessments are actually fun, though. This is a big step up from Craigslist, and WAY better than Monster. USAJobs could learn a thing or 69 from Indeed.

I feel utterly helpless, and increasingly frustrated! I have logged on to Indeed, assuming I could place my adverts (with no time to spare as re opening after a long lock down) only to discover my employers account has been disabled again!
I have spent an hour attempting to find a way to communicate and failed miserably!
The 1st time was due to an accidental recruitment Bill running during the 1st lock down (which we paid in full) however reluctantly. But at least knew why! We were then re connected. To only discover yet again when I need them most! Disabled.
Hey come on guys... you're supposedly a professional service, non of your contact numbers are live either. We have used your company for well over 5 years and have a lot of important information on here. You can see we are legitimate! Please help me here!?
