This company is a shambles

Indeed has morphed into the Federal…

Indeed has morphed into the Federal Government. I have a virtual office, it was good enough to get a sales tax permit, and insurance for my business. I was asked to send in documents, hmmm a tax permit and insurance, to verify my business. I actually sent them a pdf of the sales tax. They denied it because it was a pdf. They actually would take a picture off my phone of the sales tax and not a pdf. How in the world does that make any sense. I actually appealed to the top appeals department ...

waste of money!!!

waste of money. Placed an advert for a job. Called pretty much straight away from adviser recommending daily spend to go from £6 to £29 per day and what sort of return we would expect to get. Got nothing like the response advised. £180 later and got 1 CV and three others that didn’t pass two questions (qualified or driving license) Told happy to put credit on the account but I don’t want anything to do with indeed. Want a full refund. Wish I looked at reviews before placing advert

Absolute chaos when anything goes wrong…

Absolute chaos when anything goes wrong - no-one wants to know, no-one wants to listen or help. Ok this is getting ridiculous!!! 3 days now since some f*&%ing muppet disabled my account. 3 phone calls and still no answer as to why??? I am losing business, I am losing clients, I am losing money! Will your company reimburse me for all the losses? Get it sorted you chumps.

If you fancy jumping through hoops, and wasting your time, go ahead

Awful service, they claim they let you post roles for free as well as paid; however, if you don't immediately join up and pay, your account is disabled and flagged and at that point, support is no help. I think they should just be honest with people, if you wish to only offer a paid service, then do so, and be transparent about it so we can compare your pricing with other options. Please stop tricking people into signing up and chasing them on the phone to upsell; you may be the largest ...

Waste of time.

Haven’t had ONE real person turn up for an interview (despite dozens of people asking for one) or even return an application form!? I’ve wasted hours waiting around for people to turn up after they’ve secured an interview time and date?? Are they real people? There should be a way of rating jobseekers so employers don’t waste so much time on fake applicants. So frustrating.

As a company INDEED IS UNPROFESSIONAL…

As a company INDEED IS UNPROFESSIONAL AND FAKE, DAMAGES COMPANY, AND EVEN FAKE CV AND CANDIDATE. Cv on the site are not check. We as a company have nothing to hide and our reputation is very important to us. However we found that any body can write reviews. Indeed do not check, if those people work for the company and If they are who they are. They have no process in place. Anybody can open a fake account. We have fake reviews on our site . We questions indeed on those and to remove them, ...

Absolute waste of time

Absolute waste of time. I’m due to move 500 miles away and am therefore unfamiliar with all the smaller towns. I’ve entered a 10 mile radius of Edinburgh, and was applying for suitable jobs. Until I realised it was listing jobs from all over England. It also listed Livingston ( a small town outside of Edinburgh) as having over 2000 ‘new’ part time jobs available, whereas big Edinburgh has around 60. Total waste of time and I’m going to look like a complete time waster to some employers.

This site is all smoke and mirrors

This site is all smoke and mirrors. I believe they make up candidates and then charge you for the amount of resumes they send you—which you ultimately end up paying for. The staff at Indeed are not helpful and have terrible attitudes. Zip recruiter and monster work better. Indeed is not worth the money.

A Long Nightmare to an Employer

I paid £4000 for my company page for one year. The salesperson told me on the phone and through email that I could post jobs on Indeed without sponsorship. Then I tried to post job many times but failed and failed again. No one knew the reasons, even the people who's working in Indeed! After a month, the sales finally sorted out I couldn't post jobs because I am a franchisee. What a ridiculous reason. I am now asking for refund and have been waiting for more than a month but still no ...
