I received a job and was told I was not a good fit cause they didn’t like my lunch or perfume smell.
My resume is clear, never worked in legal and was fired for not having the accurate experience.
I apply on easy apply or urgently hiring and then it takes me an external website to fill all info tha is already on the resume provided.
Urgently hiring may mean they call back fast but the positions offered have start dates of a month or further out.
You may make you money from allowing employers to post but you will become the Monster of this generation if I can do it without you.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we are sorry to hear you have not had a positive experience.
We are not directly involved in the hiring process of the jobs on Indeed or the process that occurs after a candidate has been hired, we cannot control what happens in a workplace, unfortunately.
Some employers may have their own application process that requires completing the application on their website, we are always working to make the process as straightforward as possible for job seekers so we will ensure your feedback on this is shared with our Product teams.
Data Privacy Grab - Requires email AND phone #
Indeed not only requires you to set up an account and provide an email address, but it also requires a phone number. Otherwise, you cannot even see the jobs. I had an account with Indeed, but stopped using the site because so many jobs were out of date or fake. Now I can't see any jobs at all because I refused to give them a phone number. To any employer using Indeed, keep in mind your posts are not being seen by a large number of people who want to protect their privacy and not share personal information with Indeed. I understand most Indeed posts are free, and in this case, you truly do get what you pay for with them.

Hi Summer, at this time, our system requires verification by sending a code to authenticate users via mobile phone number or landline. We understand that this may not be convenient for everyone, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Unfortunately, we currently do not have alternative verification methods available. This is to ensure the security of our users and their accounts.
Such an arrogant business
Such an arrogant business, it's a job board why do they need numerous personal details just to look at jobs posted! They have now brought glassdoor and instigated the same policy! Professing it's to do with my safety which has never been an issue on job searches! How would I be safer giving them even more details.they ultimately want data to sell! I really hope this us the decline of Indeed reading these comments I'm not the only one! Get over yourself indeed!

Terrible platform for employers
Terrible platform for employers. Everything regarding an employers relationship with indeed involves them holding your credit card hostage. Once they convince you to upload your credit card, it's almost impossible to pause/inactivate your account. They continue to bill your credit card long after you no longer need their service.

This platform allows scammers to act as employers in order to sell "courses"
I was under the impression that Indeed was one of the most reputable job boards. However, recently, I have been dealing with endless "employers" who just claim to offer real job openings when in fact all they want is to sell courses or charge fees for "setting up your own business with their support" for "uncapped earnings potential", bla bla bla.
Indeed should do a better job of filtering out scammers trying to rip people off and only allow real employers who offer real jobs on their platforms. At least 50% of my time spent on this platform is time wasted, which I will never get back.

Company hides high rates on click response from the advertisement. You think you have a limit, but the small print ultimately makes it something else. Never post anything on Indeed again. Fortunately, there are many better professional companies with clear pricing. You cannot end your subscrition yourself.

Hi Michiel, to explain, employers on Indeed are charged per click, not per candidate. Indeed isn’t involved in hiring decisions and can’t control candidate quality or volume. You have full control: set budgets, and pause or close jobs anytime. As a self-serve platform, please review active sponsored jobs regularly to keep listings up to date and avoid unwanted charges, ensuring a flexible and efficient hiring experience.
We'd recommend checking out our Help Center articles for employers, there are some great resources that will assist you with all areas of posting a job. https://indeed.my.site.com/employerSupport1/s/?language=en_US
Waste of time and money
What a complete waste of time this website has become. I used to be able to rely on Indeed for basic requirements for Electricians, but now even those are impossible to get. I just get overseas applications only now and candidates with no working experience of the UK. Totally useless, If there was an option of no stars, that is what they would be getting, never using this site again.

Censorship run amok. Young techies that are scared of the truth
This is what absolutley drives me crazy about this job search board. They have people, that for whatever reason, can take an honest review and reject it! I have included a recent review, that I re-wrote 3 times in an attempt to have posted. Each time it gets rejected! Judge for yourselves and tell me they are not biased:

Great pay if you can get past constant belittling and profanity
Outside Sales Representative
Grand Prairie, TX
Typical work week was being required to run sales appointments as early as 9:00 in the morning and as late as 8:30 at night, 6 days a week. The job itself isn't so bad, but lots of driving wears you out. You are required to attend sales meetings on Monday and Wednesday. These meeting go on forever and are never positive. Constant personal attacks along with helping you to understand YOU are the problem. Everyone always left the meetings demoralized. I have never worked for a company where management believes yelling and excessive profanity is going to make things get better. Leads are from appointment setters working inside Home Depot. They, for the most part, are terrible. Most people have no idea why we are showing up to their house. Other leads are new homeowners that we won't stop calling. Best decision I have made in a long time by leaving.
Pros
great pay if you sell something. Quick installations, good warranty on products
Cons
Very harsh management, No real help with coaching. Yelling at people
NOTHING that mentions anyone by name, no profanity used, ONLY THE TRUTH ABOUT THE COMPANY!! You can't tell me that Indeed ins't a scam!

Hi Alex, all company page reviews on Indeed are subject to a moderation process. Our goal is to make sure we are posting reviews that are transparent and reflect the true working experience of the company. However, if any part of a review violates our guidelines, we will not post it. If you wrote a review for a company it may still be undergoing moderation as this process can take up to 48 business hours. If after 48 hours, you notice the review has not been posted or that the review was removed after being posted, it is likely that the review did not conform to our guidelines.
You can view the guidelines at: https://support.indeed.com/hc/en-us/articles/360046789111-Company-Review-Policies. We advise you to look at our guidelines and revise your review and repost it. Unfortunately, we are not able to discuss individual reviews that may not have been approved.
I’m a 64 year old Boilermaker/Welder
I’m a 64 year old Boilermaker/Welder. I can also drive HR trucks and cranes. I’m not good for any armed forces jobs not an electrician or any type of office manager. But every second job is army/navy/airforce. The others consist of jobs in another state than where I live. So out of 100 jobs I sometimes get 1 that might fit me. Although indeed says my profile says every job suits me.
Get off your ass’s boys and girls and stop with the useless AI rubbish and get real people to do the work. Maybe that way there would be less people looking for a job/

Hi Mark, to explain, Indeed’s search engine is built to surface the most relevant roles, but broad keyword matching or limited context can occasionally pull in unrelated results. We’re continually refining this so the right jobs show up first. To get the most relevant results, enter keywords between quotation marks related to the job you want (for example: "Welder").
We would advise checking out our Career Guide page: https://www.indeed.com/career-advice, there are some great resources here that will assist with all areas of your job search.

Old outdated postings and scams
Used to a good job site but now it's filled with scam and old job postings looking to steal your information. Employers accounts also get hacked frequently. Indeed is only looking to steal and sell your information, its not set up to actually have you find a job anymore. Trying to delete your account is also an extreme hassle as there is no option and you have to file a request with their help center now. The amount of time you'll waste on here applying to old or ghost postings is insane. They just want to pad the numbers and make it look like your getting somewhere

Hi, Josh! Job postings on Indeed are uploaded directly by employers, and we always encourage them to close their listings once they've made a hire.

Don't trust their reviews
If I write any negative review on a particular company no matter how I word it it's gets rejected as it doesn't meet indeed guidelines and isn't a reflection of the working environent. Yet you see reviews of other companies like this "great place if you like getting mugged off for little money. tbh the people are great but the General manager is a little boy and the other managers dont know there ar se from there elbows" I saw that review today. Yet no matter how I word my bad experience at a job despite my review being a truthful experience of the environment and low staff moral and management style it's never allowed. You see so many reviews that should be rejected so much more yet no matter how you word yours it's rejected. It's like certain companies are paying Indeed. The joke is I've written a review had it rejected, then I've literally copied and pasted it on another company "just to see" and it's been allowed. I've even written a review that's been allowed, then my wife has written the same review a week later and it's been rejected for "not meeting guidelines" lol DONT TRUST INDEED REVIEWS what so ever

Hi Kieran, employers can currently post up to 3 free hosted jobs per calendar month. Once you reach that limit, any additional jobs you create or reopen in the same month will need to be sponsored in order to appear in search results. Each free job can also receive up to 30 days of free visibility; after 30 days, it will pause and require sponsorship to go live again.
These limits help keep our marketplace fair and ensure good visibility for employers who invest in sponsorship, while still offering meaningful free access each month.
98% of the jobs are scammers
98% of the jobs are scammers. Do not put your phone number, address, or email on your public profile or resume. When filling out applications avoid filling out recruiters online forms. Most of these are information farms for scammers. Waste of time in my opinion, if you see a job you want call that said company directly.
