Indeed, Inc Reviews

Have been "working" with them for over an hour trying to change password for account. Asked to speak with a supervisor and was denied to speak with a supervisor. Bad Customer Service they take my money with nothing to show for it. Can't log into my account Indeed says that my email is not correct. Do not get notifications stating I have a message. Do not use Indeed

Indeed sent me coupon/brochure, so I used it to advertise, I have a very small business. Both the brochure the company sent me and the verbiage on their site assures the buyer that your company will not be charged for unqualified candidates.

The ad was placed around June 16th, 2021 my budget ceiling was $800. I directly stated in my job ad that I needed a candidate who was local/located in NH, that they need to have a specific license and a specific certification, and I made those 'deal breakers' , that this was not a remote job ( though it had the capability to be partially remote at times).

Within approx.. 24 hrs, I received 10 responses, only one of which met my criteria. The rest were from all over the US, and most did not have any of the selection criteria, or deal breakers, but I was charged for them. Indeed charged me $725, blowing through most of my entire budget. Is it a coincidence that the errors they made sucked away my entire budget in the first 24 hours?

By searching as if I was an applicant, I later discovered that some kind of bot at Indeed had my job listed as ‘remote’ which it definitely was no- I had not listed the position as remote, not at all. So I was paying big for expensive false advertising.

You can't call them. I wrote THREE times to try and get some kind of customer service- finally someone answered and reduced my bill, only by $350- I was still being charged for all those unqualified candidates. The person who tersely responded by email told me this is the best I could hope for.

Mind you, I wrote the ad, I posted it, I answered the responses, a computer program at Indeed merely spewed out this stuff online to their site, and an algorithm, I am sure, messed up my ad. Very few, if any real human beings were involved in this mess. I am just a casualty of bad artificial intelligence at Indeed.

In July I got one qaulified person applying, and was charged $80. (that at least seemed more in line with what they told me would happen)

In August, a single candidate applied twice, and I was charged TWICE (total $160), even though it was the SAME PERSON ( maybe they were also having trouble with the software, it was on the same day). Once again, impossible to get any kind of customer service to answer me to rectify this problem of being overcharged.

The software is difficult to use and confusing.

Indeed is terribly expensive with bad software and bad service .I would not have posted the ad unless I knew I would not be charged for unqualified candidates, and I relied on the company’s promise that I would not be charged, and yet I was.

Indeed decided, for no good reason, to tell me to change my password. It looked easy, they say 'we'll send you an email'. But no email arrives

Looked on their website, the usual nonsense, look at spam or blocked site - Indeed is not in my spam or my blocked site. So this means that suddenly, one day, Indeed decides to lock me out of their site'

If they do things like that, how do we trust they can do anything about jobs? I will never use Indeed again, and I will tell everyone I know that they are a fraud

I believe the Indeed resume posting and employment service is a complete and total scam for the following reasons.

We are a federally approved nonprofit charity. We recognize other charities do great work providing medical care for indigent children, rescuing abandoned animals, building shelters for abused and abandoned women and children, feeding the hungry through food banks and everything else nonprofit organizations do to provide critically needed services in our communities. We have the highest possible rating, the Platinum rating, from Guidestar which rates nonprofit organizations.

We were founded by two retired television news anchors we saw that even though nonprofit organizations to a great job, they are critically short of funds. As just one example, the leading breast cancer research foundation in the world is about to close its doors due to funding problems. That means research which would save women’s lives will be abandoned.

Instead of trying to repeat the charitable work done by other worthy organizations, we raise money and donated to those very much needed nonprofits. As an example of our success, since our inception 20 years ago, we have donated more than $38 million to other nonprofits. That has saved children’s lives, rescued animals, fed the hungry, saved forests, and so much more

The current pandemic created an even greater need for our work. To do that we need to hire more staff. We paid Indeed a monthly fee to be able to access resumes posted on their site. Over a period of more than six months, despite our monthly payment, Indeed denied us access to applicants through this part of Indeed.

I believe Indeed does this so that in addition to your monthly subscription, they can charge you even more to place “help wanted” advertisements on their site. That cost us additional thousands of dollars. In our experience with the supposed job applicants who replied to Indeed’s overpriced help wanted advertisements, fewer than 10% met even the core qualifications for the positions. In addition, Indeed apparently does nothing to validate applicants’ claims regarding prior employment or education.

Indeed repeatedly promised to solve the problems of our being defrauded out of the money we paid them. They even assigned two women who guaranteed they were going to solve our problem. For confidentiality reasons I will not go into full details, but their first names were Bailey and Theresa. Just like everything else we experienced with Indeed, they were full of promises but all those promises were unfulfilled. When we followed Bailey's instructions to solve Indeed's problem, exactly as she mandated, things only got worse. This is made even worse when you realize that each dollar Indeed defrauded us out of was a dollar we could not donate to a needy nonprofit.

Because of the consistency of the lies and the total failures to fulfill their obligations, we intend to report this matter to the Attorneys General of the states where they are headquartered.

From our experience I would recommend that a job applicant looking for a good position or an employer looking to fill a personnel need look elsewhere and don’t fall victim to any Indeed scam.

Inddeed is an internet based employment postion search engine who consistantly post out of date and fake jobs, they do not confirm the postions or locations before posting or being allowed to post the jobs on Indeed. I live in PUERTO RICO and Indeed consistantly post jos as being in PR which can be in the USA or even different countries. For example posted today is a position with INIFRANZ in EL ALTO PR (PUERTO RICO) but if you crosscheck the company website or wikipedia you find EL ALTO is an urbinization in BOLIVIA.

This particular compant I have informed Indeed by Indeed preference of reporting (a link at the bottom of the popout post) via facebook and by pissed consumer, but Indeed do not take reponsibilty, they just make excuses and continue to post the jobs. A lot of Indeeds posts you apply by an 'APPLY NOW' link and not an official company website, Where is peoples critical, sensitive information going, if to another country then you are at the mercy of unknown forces and individuals, even on official copmpany websites your information could be going to a different country.
