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

Overall Good Review

Overall, Indeed has made it very easy for me to recruit. I really enjoy that Indeed has such a great team to assist with my inquiries. Everything is designed and organized very well. This is a great system to seek candidates and to post our jobs. Fortunately, with the help of Indeed I was able to hire some candidates via Indeed. The only thing I think that can make some improvement for employers is an opportunity for employer branding. Allowing us to put the company logo on our job ...

Changed access to Candidate not positive

Hi, the recent changes to the Candidate Dashboard are now confusing. I can't click on the Awaiting Review tab and get the actual candidate list like I could before. I found I have to go to the bottom of the page to click on 'all candidates' to even see the page. Now I have to do more investigative work to figure out where i need to go.

Easy searches

The only good thing about indeed is searching the site is very easy to use. However do not take the assessments. I do not know how they rate you and if you disagree they don't care and wont change it or allow another one. I don't suggest you open an account its difficult to change without deleting, or get updates on jobs, they are not even close to what I was qualified for and constant! The best way to use the site is to search and just upload your resume.

Over promise and under deliver

Over promise and under deliver. No real clarity on your spend and terrible service/aftercare. Don't bother wasting your time.

I have a complaint

Good evening i have a complaint, and cannot get through to a human on your website please can someone contact me as soon as possible this is an urgent matter

I posted and paid for advertising then my account suspended…

I posted and paid for advertising my job. 2 weeks in and after they had charged me Indeed decided to suspend the account as they can't verify it. I can see now from the many reviews that I am not the only one for this to happen to. I have tried to resolve it with customer services but they dont seem to understand and just keep repeating the same thing again and again. Verification should happen before they allow posting and charging clients, not disrupting the process midway trying to ...

Posted a role without my permission…

Posted a role without my permission with my personal email address on it and took 24 days for them to respond to my request to take it down

Indeed is concerned with Volume, not quality!!

As the owner of a large recruitment firm, we are measured on performance, not volume. Volume is noise. Indeed is so bad that the only way they can monetize is to charge corp users for each time a candidate clicks on a job, not when a qualified candidate is found. I wish I could do that with my clients - produce nothing and charge them. This is nothing more than a modern-day newspaper. They are fundamentally concerned with the opposite that they should be. They are concerned with volume / ...

Very poor performance

The website is clumsy, hard to read, disorganized and has no way to see/access video interviews directly from the site. This site is only slightly better than simply using Outlook directly.

As a recruiter

As a recruiter, Indeed has been very helpful to me in my search for quality profiles for my requirements. Thank you Indeed!
