Really creepy. I used Indeed as a job search tool but maybe a year or two ago - around when the Japanese company took over - it started getting really creepy with these easy apply buttons. I would see a job then check with the company and the company would say they aren't hiring for that job. Some of the companies I couldn't even find or they seemed like scammy type businesses that might have been shells. So where is my data going? Then more and more blind listings would appear. I don't even trust they are real jobs. But if you actually try to respond - THEN you get these really troubling questions like where do you live - do you live in so and so city? And how much do you earn? I then cancel. If it is a real job I am losing out and the employer is missing out on a perfect candidate because of this creep factor. I have also gotten questions with my daily email of jobs based on my resume asking me how much I earned at each job listed. I spent hours trying to find someone at indeed to take down my resume which I never permitted them to keep anyway only to be told they can't find any record of it. I feel like this is still a decent search engine but you have to check out each job first and never use the easy apply for a blind listing or any job where indeed is hiding the actual email or contact information they are supposed to be forwarding the resume to and never answer those additional questions. It is like they are fishing to do a profile on you. Very creepy. And that probably explains why some companies are getting lousy candidates - nobody smart will be applying this way. You have to guard your privacy. The only reason I am giving 2-3 stars is because it still puts together a decent list of jobs but you have to click each one and do your own research because you can't trust it being legit.

Hello, sorry for the negative experience. Some employers on Indeed ask application questions related to location to make sure they are getting candidates in their area. When adding your resume to Indeed, we provide the option to leave a company review on past companies you have worked for, as well as salary information to help other job seekers looking at these companies get a sense of what the salary would be. This information is not required in order to upload a resume on Indeed. If there is anything we can do to help, please feel free to email us at sitejabber@indeed.com. Thank you.

SICKENING COMPANY - worthy of a lawsuit
April 29, 2021

ALL RESPONSE IS FACELESS AND FROM INDIA, ALL NONSENSE.
SEE ATTACHMENTS

Imagine doing business with a company multiple times over several years and suddenly when you come to depend on them having the rug pulled out from you 100% with your only recourse being email and no chance of contacting a very shady company, no phone calls of any kind, no chat.

Meanwhile the company insists that you and your boss, a licensed doctor in 3 states, board certified, are underhanded, we have real email, real websites, three real dental/admin offices and yet indeed cannot be found anywhere, but they're allowed to point the finger at the honest citizen.

We hired more than a dozen people from using indeed and suddenly we are basically criminals. We checked our credit card, it's working fine, nothing has changed, we posted a job which was the same one that we had posted about 8 months ago because we have turnover, suddenly that job does not meet their standards and they don't need to tell us why.

This is absolutely outrageous; private companies are allowed to make their own decisions, we accept that, but there should be some accountability once they've taken all your information, it is not OK to just disappear while accusing everyone else of disappearing, this is a disordered psychopathic way of looking at things.

They get to hide and point the finger while you sit there with your heart pounding and no recourse other than to press an electronic keyboard and no one you can talk too no way to make things better, and try explaining that to your boss who thinks you did something wrong.

The damage to career is lawsuit worthy.

Try to find alternatives to this company (handshake is really good) even if you are currently using them there are other companies out there and while they may not be as big as indeed yet, prepare now because when they pull the rug out from under you, you will not know what to do.
