Indeed

Indeed.com is by far one of the better job search sites, most of the employment opportunities listed on there are real employers and this site does have some good features such as being able to save a job and apply for it later when the applicant is ready, however, like most job search engines Indeed has a flaw that becomes quite a nuisance that clutters up a person email inbox and can be a time waster, which time is something very precious to many applicants. The feature that allows Indeed users to save a search and receive email notifications based on that search needs a lot of improvement. For example, one of my job searches is specifically for Emergency medical technician and other health care provider opportunities, therefore receiving constant emails notifications for jobs as a tire technician is beginning to become a major inconvenience where Im spending more time deleting notifications for irrelevant job positions than actually applying for positions someone as myself are qualified for.

Today I was contacted by a job called IBI Group Inc. They are trying to give me an "online interview" which I have never heard of but I gave my name and things like that but once she asked if I had a bank account I told her I had just recently closed it due to me being out of work for 2months now. She told me to go and open it back up then contact her back I asked her if she was going to need my information (which I was not going to give) but she said no just so I can receive direct deposit. I have a prepaid card that can do direct deposit which I told her but she said I could not use. Is this a scam, Indeed can you please tell me about this job.

Not only are Indeed.com's job recommendations mostly irrelevant to your skills (I'm a software engineer and they're constantly giving me job referrals for nursing positions and other jobs irrelevant to my skills and experience), but those idiots WILL lose your data. I spent several hours today creating a job history on Indeed.com. When I saved all my work, Indeed.com asked me to upload my resume as a file. When I did, it completely wiped out all the work I had just done. I want my online information to be extremely detailed and then limit my physical resume to a single page that references that online data. When I tried to do this on Indeed.com, they replaced all my detailed information and they provide NO WAY to retrieve it.

Customers have been complaining to Indeed.com about this for 2 years but they've done nothing to protect your data and ensure that their web UI doesn't trick you into deleting it.

There are other job sites out there that are far better than Indeed. If you don't have an account, don't create one. If you do, delete it.

I have used indeed to hire 4 separate positions in my company over the past 8 months. Their pricing is up front if you want to be sponsored - monthly or daily budgets - and I receive quality applicants along with people who aren't qualified. I have posted free and sponsored ads, with success from both, but more so the sponsored. I did sponsor the free ad after 3 weeks of no success, but that didn't help, I didn't receive many but the ones I did receive I was able to make a hire. We understand it is not Indeed's fault if we get under qualified people answering our ads, many people take a chance and apply for jobs they want without the experience needed. I have never received spam mail from Indeed and I have been with them for 6 years. My sponsor ship has always been fair in price - you have to know when to pause it if your budget is getting too high or you hired someone. We are in control of our account and honestly I believe the people with a negative review simply don't know how to manage their account or they don't understand fully what they signed up for. I have had so many good applicants for the jobs I posted I had to pause them after a few days just so I could have time to read through the resumes and phone screen.
I like Indeed and I highly recommend it to any employer looking to hire.

I put in only 4 questions and one of them was that the applicant 'MUST HAVE A SMOG LICENSE" and got 7 applicants that answered no but still applied and one who outright lied and said yes he has a smog license and up on phone interview, he admitted he did not have one. He was just applying to keep up his unemployment needs. Indeed did get more stupid people trying to apply than the newspaper though. It's not "Indeeds" fault I know.

I don't know why indeed always choose to disable a employer account of a whole HR of a reputable company after all the necessary information needed is provided.

I created an account to get staff for my business and my account got blocked after i spent 3 hours looking over CVS. Without any reason to why it was blocked.
