Recruitment Manager

The resumes are shown without any contact information and name. Once we find the resume to be good fit, we can request for the contact details and only then a view is counted.

Recruiter

The only good thing about this software is the resume database and it is still glitchy and crashes multiple times while using it.

Has a different operational method then other job boards.

President

This company advertises that it is a free applicant tracking system.  

HR Coordinator

I must say that the system is extremely easy to use, offers lots of tracking options and I can't say this enough FREE!

I believe there was a glitch with the system but I'm sure they are working on it.

I just started using Mighty Recruiter for the free trial.

Its a very easy tool to use, I love that they provide job description examples and its free!

Disruptive sponsored job listings

Office Manager

We do not like that we are forced to "sponsor" an ad, especially when said sponsorship yields either no applicants or no qualified applicants.

66% of reviewers feel negative about sponsored posts on Indeed. Users say sponsored job ads clutter search results, often displaying irrelevant or out-of-area listings. They feel pressured to pay for visibility, as unpaid postings can be buried quickly. Reviewers mention that sponsored ads don’t always yield better candidates and can be costly, especially for small businesses. Many users find the abundance of sponsored content makes it harder to find suitable jobs or candidates, reducing the overall search quality.

Outdated and repetitive job ads

Support worker

A  downfall of using Indeed are that some job advertisements are not updated; by the time you click to apply your might see that the job ad is no longer available.

48% of reviewers feel negative about job advertisement practices on Indeed. Users report seeing expired, duplicated, or irrelevant job ads, making it difficult to identify genuine opportunities. They say some ads are posted by third parties or lack transparency about the hiring company. Reviewers mention frustration with ads that require in-person applications or display incorrect job categories. Many users find the presence of outdated or spammy ads detracts from the reliability and efficiency of their job search.

Prevalence of scams and spam

I do not like that when my email address is visible to employees during my employment search, that I get spam emails from what seem to be hackers or imposters.

Freelance Writer

The abundance of "remote-jobs" that all end up being fake survey sites that end up being endless, cyclical links to other survey sites and ads attempting to get you to sign up or buy things.

89% of reviewers feel negative about spam and scam issues on Indeed. Users report encountering fake job postings, fraudulent recruiters, and irrelevant spam emails or calls after applying. They say the platform’s filtering for scams is insufficient, leading to wasted time and potential security risks. Reviewers mention that personal information can be targeted by scammers, and legitimate jobs often get lost among misleading or outdated listings. Many users express frustration with the need to sift through irrelevant or deceptive opportunities.

Excessive and irrelevant email alerts

51% of reviewers feel negative about Indeed’s email notifications. Users report receiving too many emails, often for jobs or updates that are not relevant to their interests or location. They say unsubscribing or adjusting settings does not always reduce the volume, leading to inbox clutter. Reviewers mention missed or delayed important messages due to the high frequency of notifications. Some users find the communication between employers and applicants confusing, as messages may not be delivered consistently.

High and confusing pricing structure

45% of reviewers feel negative about Indeed’s pricing. Users say the cost for sponsored posts, pay-per-click, or resume access is high and often unclear, especially for small businesses or infrequent users. They report unexpected charges, automatic renewals, and difficulty understanding the billing system. Reviewers mention that paid features do not always result in better candidates or outcomes, leading to concerns about value for money. Many users feel pressured to pay for visibility, making the platform less accessible for those with limited budgets.

Time-saving application tools

Practice Manager

I really enjoy that you can save the job templates to reuse every time you need it so that it can be tailored if needed or use the exact same one.

94% of reviewers feel positive about Indeed’s save feature. Users appreciate that the platform stores their application information, resumes, and previous searches, allowing them to quickly apply to multiple jobs without re-entering details.

Streamlined hiring workflow

Marketing Director

It was pretty difficult to find prospects before but since we started using Indeed, we've been able to hire qualified talent in a fraction of the time it'd typically take, and with no temp agency fees!!

91% of reviewers feel positive about Indeed’s hiring process. Users indicate that posting jobs, screening candidates, and managing applications is straightforward and efficient. They appreciate features like screener questions, status tracking, and the ability to communicate with applicants directly through the platform. Reviewers say Indeed helps them attract qualified candidates quickly and provides tools to keep hiring organized. Many employers find it easy to adjust postings, keep records, and fill positions faster compared to traditional methods.

The platform also offers strong job search and filtering options, allowing users to find opportunities that match their experience, skills, and background efficiently.

Tech Specialist

The large, diverse talent pool and built-in screening tools help surface qualified candidates quickly, and options like sponsorship and company pages improve visibility for key roles.

Payroll and Admin Specialist

It can sync to your onboarding/payroll platform so that you can manage your candidates straight from your system.   Or you can use it manually where you create the job posting in Indeed and manage candidates straight from the Indeed platform.  

HR Manager

The wide candidate reach and ease of posting jobs, along with quick access to a large and diverse applicant pool, which helps fill roles faster and streamline hiring.

Indeed for Employers makes it easy to post jobs, review applicants, and communicate with candidates from a single dashboard, which streamlines the hiring process and saves time.

Overall experience, it is the most reliable job recruiting portal, it helps connect us with a large group of people we are able to interview and meet, which hightens the success.

Administrator

The ability to filter candidates by experience, skills, and qualifications saves a lot of time, especially when hiring for roles that require specific expertise.

Manager

As soon as we post a job, we start seeing applications roll in, and the built-in screening questions let us filter for basics like license or shift availability right away.

The cost can add up quickly, especially with sponsored postings, and applicant quality can be inconsistent, requiring extra time to screen unqualified candidates.

TDT Processor

The interface is intuitive with strong filters (keywords, location, salary, experience, etc.), and "Easy Apply" or "Indeed Apply" speeds up submissions.

Clinical Office Manager

However, user experiences vary significantly — some people find jobs successfully through the platform, while others get frustrated by irrelevant listings, lack of employer responses, or occasional low-quality postings.

Depending on how the post was originally created, (i.e- if you make the post or if corporate would make the post) sometimes notifications of when people apply wouldn't make it through... leading to delayed response times.

General manager

However, the most recurring problem is potential hires don’t read the ad before applying or opt in for a one-click apply and bypass reading about the job, the ad, or any potential screening

Outside sales

There is a large volume of low-quality or unqualified applicants, the risk of spam and fake listings, and a user interface that can be confusing or chaotic.

You can pause a job posting when necessary and you can adjust how long you want your job posting to be up.  

CTD, MT-BC, NMT-F

I did not like that the posts seem to expire and/or get buried over time if you're using the free model. But checking once a month to make sure the posting is still visible is a small price to pay for getting to use the service for free!

Office Finance Manager

Having applicants ordered by job posting and be able to filter results to ensure only the applicants who would be a good fit are available to view.

Area Sales Manager

The indeed platform is little bit confusing like while posting a job is difficult to post the job the way you want and customisations are little less.

Sponsored job ads can be expensive and the filtering system is not always reliable, in my opinion if they work on these areas then it will the top apps out there.

HR ADMIN

I like SmartSourcing the best, where I can enter a keyword or past job title and geographic area and find people that I think would be great for the role then invite them to apply to my open job post.

Tools that make it easy for me to post job details, automate responses and set up interview schedules.

You can customize if you want an assessment test sent to the candidate after they submit their resume.  

HR Representative

The emails you receive from billing are not accurate requiring contacting customer service and monitoring your credit card.  

HR Business Partner

It has been very good so far as a direct recruitment method. Although it costs to use Indeed's services, we have still saved a significant sum of money when compared to using indirect recruitment methods (i.e., recruitment agencies).

To get strong visibility on many roles, sponsoring jobs often feels necessary, which can drive up costs, especially for small teams or tight budgets.

Operations Manager

A lot of unqualified applicants are able to apply, which ends up being wasted money since we are paying for clicks that do not turn into real candidates.

Product owner

effective for reaching vast pool and centralizing posting, screening and communication in one place.

Director of Operations

The resume database lets my search for people anywhere with the experience I am looking for.

It is better than the Linkedin because as from my observation we received a lot more quality applications when posted a job on both platforms.

Creator

I feel like I receive a lot of spammy, irrelevant, or duplicate applications, making it hard to find qualified candidates.

The main downside is the cost and having to sort through unqualified applicants, but it is still one of our main tools for hiring.

HR Director

Honestly, I do not really have any cons. If I have to comment, I’d say that you have to sometimes refresh the ads to keep it active enough for people to see and sometimes they don’t close when you’re done with it.

Singer-Songwriter, Author, and Freelance Writer

I have been able to apply for several desirable positions through Indeed, which lead to interview and potential job offers, some of which I was unable to take.

Talent Lead

Huge candidate reach and strong visibility for job postings, especially for high-volume or entry-level roles
