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

I was going to give a 5

I was going to give a 5, but after hiring someone from indeed, she was here for 1.5 days, she left. She said it wasn't us, but that she got a better offer. I understand better offers, I understand leaving after a very short while. What I don't understand and what terribly disappointed me, was that she didn't tell me. She left on her break and never returned. She sent an email telling me that she was resigning because of a better offer. That was terribly disappointing. I suppose Indeed ...

My experience with indeed was great

My experience with indeed was great. I receive more than enough qualified candidates and interviewed several good ones. The hiring and communication process was very good. We made an excellent hire from indeed.

Great candidates, unreliable communication tools

I have made very solid hires on Indeed. I have no complaints about the quality of candidates I gain access to, especially in an entry level capacity. The area of improvement is the communication and assessment tools. Even after adding all the email extensions to my system as directed by Indeed I consistently do not receive the acceptances to my interview requests. Assessments that have been completed (I know because the candidate will send me screen shots of their profile) show up as ...

Froze my account during the covid 19 shut down.

Verification process was a joke. I provided multiple documents indeed requested. They denied these legal documents put my account on hold for a month during the Covid shut down when many people were looking for work. I now use ziprecruiter and every other job hiering website.

Out of 10 applicants not 1 showed up for the interview. I am all done using this site for prospective candidates. Word of mouth works the best!!!!

There does not seem to be many applicants through this site. The nickle and dime add ons lead me to believe that my ad may not be displayed and it makes me feel the site is less than trust worthy. I get just as many hits on Craigslist and Zip recruiter.

Didn't get any response from our posting and yet I had to pay over $100.00

Implement a star or rating system for serial no-show no-call applicants

I agree with some of the below comments about the inconsistency of the talent that apply. I have an idea, why not implement a star rating similar to what you see on Uber drivers, if enough employers leave let's say a negative or one star on the same applicant who is no showing on multiple job interviews then maybe Indeed can flag or at least contact that person and find out what is the underlying cause. Otherwise I will simply stay with the "free" postings, the exorbitant sponsor price is ...
