Indeed Reviews in November 2026: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Indeed we have had bad experience

We have been advertising our company’s job openings with Indeed for years. We have been having issues that constitute interference and failure to perform as advertised and promised by Indeed. For instance, we posted a job that was an office assistant position. A part of the service is to allow candidates to submit a one-way interview answers to our posted questions. Most candidates complained they did not get the link to participate in the interview from Indeed. We contacted Indeed and ...

Trying to get a response on a billing…

Trying to get a response on a billing query is absolutely impossible. No number to call and no response from email.

Poor Experience as an Employer

I wanted to post a job opening, but Indeed couldn’t verify my account even after I provided the documents they requested. I was able to gather 20+ high quality applicants using Zip Recruiter while I was waiting for a response from Indeed Customer Service.

My Saving Grace

My experience was made at ease. It was set up that way. It sealed my connection with the Employer

I have mixed thoughts about them

I have mixed thoughts about them. Sometimes they have good jobs posted and I have had interviews from jobs posted on indeed. However the filters don’t always work. When you select within 0 miles it shows jobs further away. Also the remote filter shows jobs which are hybrid. The app has had issues for over a week now which still need fixing. I’ve also seen scam jobs posted on the site.

Ridiculously Overpriced

Indeed is ridiculously overpriced. Buyer beware. You will be an astronomical amount charged per application. We posted an opening, thinking the entire fee was around $50. It ended up being roughly $50 per resume, and if we did not reject them within 48 hours, we were billed whether or not we accepted them. Never again, Indeed.

Not a Good experience

I wanted to work with Indeed.com but my experience was terrible. Indeed charged me 337 dollars for 11 resumes and the rest of the resumes were not even relating to the job that I posted .. Also, I tried to pay for the ad but I could not do it because credit card page did not work.. I wrote and email to the customer support and I called to the support line but Indeed people did not resolve the issue.. So I canceled the job ad.. My issue was not resolved and the experience was not GOOD...

DO NOT USE INDEED

Unfortunately, as with the number of other reviews I see posted here, I too was completely scammed by the new pricing structure. It's a simple way for Indeed to drastically increase their revenue, while completely draining small to mid size businesses of their hiring budgets with 0 quality applicants. If you have limited choices (like us) when it comes to using hiring platforms, DO NOT PROCEED WITH INDEED'S CPA PRICING. Your account management team will NOT help explain this to you, be ...

Indeed has deteriorated and is now just a ripoff.…

Indeed was about 8 to 10 years ago a great recruiting tool. It is now an annoying high handed expensive rip off. The name of the game for Indeed is to get employers to spend as much money as possible on ppc - period. They employ every little trick to do this then claim its not their responsibility that your ad gets nothing except of course all of your budget is spent. Their job ad help is just how to spoend even more money to get nothing.

Poor communication in regards to chargeable ads.

I have used indeed for years to hire bar staff and never had any issues until now. I have received an invoice for £730 even though we have not sponsored any adverts and when I check through there is nothing in regards to the "pay per applicant", which I would not do. There is no number to call and I need this issue rectifying and struggle to get hold of anyone! I don't know what has happened at indeed but if it is a new business model it does not explain it to the customer and seems to be a ...
