Indeed

Your ability to post jobs on indeed has been disabled. How to solve the issues please to guide me. I

I have been using indeed for about 2 years now and have had great success with hiring my employees from the site. I am a small business and it can get kind of hard hiring so indeed was a great site for me. During Covid we were forced to close our store down for a few months and a few of the employees quit. Once late summer came around our store opened up again and so we did another ad on indeed looking for new employees. Most of the people that emailed us were not what we were looking for and the ones that were what we were looking for would never email us back. We would set up interviews and they would either not show up or ask to be paid in cash because they did not want to lose their unemployment. So for months we were not able to hire anyone and we were forced to keep renewing our ad. At one point indeed removed our ad saying that we had to now pay around $12.00 per application and we did for around a day or two and then we turned it off. A few weeks later they disabled our account and when we asked why the account was disabled we got the same respond that most people get "Thank you for contacting Indeed. We have reviewed your account and have found it to be unsuitable for Indeed.

For your reference, we have linked Indeed's Terms of Service and Job Posting Guidelines."

The best part of that email was when they state "No further action is required on your part." I thought that was funny. Thanks!

We have a small retail store that sells collectibles and comic books. I looked over at the terms of service and we can not find anything that we did wrong.
Has anyone here been able to get their account open again with indeed?
It would have been nice if Indeed just informed us what we did wrong and allow us to correct the issue, but all we got was that general email that does not explain anything.
Thank you for all the help and I hope everyone is happy and safe out there!

Very very bad communication. Account got disabled after 2 hours. This is horrible company to do buinsess with

I used indeed twice to find candidates for 3 different positions and both times I did not fulfill the position through indeed. I gave 2 starts because it's not a complete waste of time. Honestly you will get a lot of resumes but I will say a lot of them are not qualified resumes. I understand that indeed is not directly responsible for who applies for jobs but as an employer paying for every single click (overpriced clicks at that), I was very unhappy with how much I was charged at the end of this month.
I do not mind paying for quality resumes but I even emailed a so-called Senior Account Executive with some of the resumes I was was receiving complaining about the amount I was paying and the type of resumes I was receiving. Her response was that I was using a "self serve" option and that had I returned her calls before I was billed, she could have helped me get more quality leads. That if I had indeed manage my postings, this would not have happened.
Frankly, my email was not a nice email but it was not nasty either. It was an email written by an indeed user that was shocked at the amount being paid vs the quality of what I was paying for.
Again if I had received a better response than what I got from an account manager, I may have continued using indeed but after receiving an email pretty much stating that it's my fault and that the self-managed option doesn't work well... I think I'll move on: "The self serve option does not work very well because the jobs hit their budgets very quickly (when the $20 hits=20 clicks) and does not necessarily mean an apply. Again, this is something we could have helped with as you answered me calls before but I understand you were tied up."

No doubt you will get a lot of resumes but I can't say they're quality and the type of response I got from my inquiry was nothing short of a turn-off.

I posted a job role on this website and that the info I posted was the same from another job site that had no issue with the post, but not long after maybe an hour or so, I get an email from the site saying my account was disabled and that I will not be allowed to post anymore! This is just got to be one of the worse job posting sites I ever have seen advertised on google!

This was the info on my job ad

That's all I had posted and not long after, they disabled my account! Just lucky I did not give my credit card info to this scam company!

I used to have an applicant tracking system that was grandfathered into Indeed's Organic postings. It was great! We could post unlimited positions and received numerous applicants. Then Indeed starting nit picking EVERYTHING as an attempt to force us to pay for advertising. Then they reneged on our grandfathered organic postings. This really hurt our numbers in applications we received. I got a phone call from an Indeed rep. Who told me I would receive approx. 40 applications per day, it would cost me approximately $2 / applicant etc., etc. They want me as an independent recruiter to pay them $2000 / mo. That is a HUGE expense. I asked several times for information in writing on how I am to be billed. I wanted to exactly how it works. I got a very generic email that explained little. I told him if they could promise me the volume it may be worth it. Promised the applicant quality will be better too or I won't have many applicants that do not qualify for a position. Within 2 days my account billing jumped from $87 to $497. Are you kidding me? I was only able to do 10 postings at a time "because my costs would get out of hand". LOL! IT ALREADY DID in 2 days. I only got 29 application. I called my rep and was furious. I was told it was because their system crashed and they will fix it. But I have to pay the current bill and they will credit me $200 on the next billing cycle. The short story is this... They back NOTHING up in writing so you are easily scammed in to erroneous billing for little response and poor application quality. So why should I pay them? I was completely misled and I am disgusted! VERY unhappy. Bad business. Maybe Indeed needs to start rethinking longer term rather than get their money now! You can make consistent money by paid monthly memberships by employers & recruiters. Or rethink the whole organic postings and stop being greedy! There has to be a better way to make money and improve your customer satisfaction to retain your customers. Your CPM model is a scam! I didn't appreciate the misleading sales pitch.
