Very sketchy business practices. Poor communication, staff is clueless on company policies. Speak to 3 people you will get 3 different stories on company policy. Should be sued for unethical and illegal practices. Closes account and blocks listings but does not communicate or provide any information to restore service. However they charge for clicks even though they clocked accounts. Disputed charges and won dispute.

Hi,
I recently apply for a job in a indian restaurant through indeed. After few days later one of staff member of that restaurant contact me and ask for which position do you like to work (Waitress or kitchen hand) then I replied for that and I few days later again he contact me and ask weather still I am interesting about that job or not. Then I told him that I am still interesting about that. Then he asked me to come for a movie after the interview. Then I told him I can come to the interview but not for the movie. Again he forced me to join with him.
This seems to be as a sexual assault.
I have already attached the screen shots for your kind information.
I am looking forward to get further action against this assault. After this, I was very uncomfortable about this conversation.
Please get necessary action to regarding this conversation.

I placed several applications and attached my resume to different jobs through indeed. I spoke with a dentist's office to pay for services provided for my son. While on the phone I asked if they had received my application and resume for their job posting. They had not. I'm not getting calls from any of the postings that I applied for. Is any receiving them?

Why does this company even have a section for employees to review their employers? I've tried to submit my experience of what occurred at one company, in what I would argue to be professional language, no inflammatory terms and the such. Yet, despite numerous attempts to "reduce the truthfulness" of my review, Indeed censored every single review I've tried to post. Why? I don't use profanity, I didn't lie about anything, I'm just offering my experience and opinion on a company I worked with.

If you won't let people post truthful accounts and reviews, why even bother operating this segment? You let companies pay people to post fake reviews to boost up their ratings and trick people into thinking they are a good employer, and yet you won't let the truth fly? A+ for censorship efforts, F for transparency. Guess we all know what Indeed's values are and where they stand in terms of ethics.

Hi, my name is jose and I represent creavelabs it solutions.

Am an employer and am writing this complaint because am fed-up with indeed.com's misleading job postings on their job portals. We are getting thousands of emails from their website as well as job seekers who mislead from the info shown on their website. We had disable our hr's email to block these spams. But again, people are searching our company name and getting contact details from there. We have to spend much of our time answering these poor job seekers who thinks we are being sarcastic to them, we are sorry but it is really frustrating.

Indeed.com as well as their other regional portals like indeed. Ae, indeed.Co.In, indeed.Co. Uk etc works the same way.

If you are a job seeker, please avoid these guys, if you are a victim like us, please voice your frustration!

Here are few references of the wrong, misleading info (If they saw this, they might remove these though) :

Earlier, when we detected these issues, we contacted one of their people and told them not to post any jobs on behalf of us without our consent. At that time they simply marked those job listings as "not available". (Eg: http://www.Indeed. Ae/viewjob?Jk=1c40f47dad8e3996)

And they have posted them again now! Very frustrating, unethical bunch of "people".

Upon browsing for jobs on indeed.com, I came across a job advertisement that I could not believe was allowed to be published and approved by indeed.com
The job vacancy clearly stated that no "black people" are allowed to apply as the location in which the job was being advertised does not have a "black" community. I am extremely angered that indeed.com has allowed this to be published on their website. I do not know if indeed.com has a monitoring system in place and if they must first approve of job advertisements or if companies have free reign over what they publish.
I have uploaded the job vacancy in question.

Warning about indeed email indeed.com allows employers contact you via their website. However the speed of the email processing is extremely slow! I tested this myself. I created a second account and emailed myself as if I was an employer. It has been hours and the email from the employer (Me) to myself still has not come through. Indeed has no phone number to call. I have tried contacted them with questions but their "solution" was to change my email account. I am very concerned that the speed of their "communication" tools are going to ruin my chances at getting this job.

I couldn't find another way to notify you about this issue. One of my team members obtained a virus today and we are pretty sure it came from your website. It was a Cryptowall virus. We thought you should be notified to check your systems and avoid other issues.

I have been emailed by a Mr Benjamin Perrizaz saying he works fro company Northrop Gumman Corp. While I know this company to be legite nd involved with security I can see the email was firstly sent to me in the south pacific and the company is in the US, No mention of where the job is. Saying his secretary is pregnant and needs someone to pickup mail, etc., This is not a proper job and Im not sure why they would scam a person that is looking for a warehouse job. Nayway please ignore the job offer and what was unusual is the email address looked like this.. Benjamin Perriraz via Indeed

I recently received a scam from a so-called employer by the name of expert-a group ltd. Please do not even entertain them with a response! They tried to get me through email to sign an employment agreement and also filled in the registration form giving out contact details and furthermore asking for my picture. I thought it was very weird and went on their website which was under construction. The next day, another email from them asking if I would consider the position and this time, they their website was up and running but still it just didn't looked right. Moreover, the so-called employee manager, ruby hlloway didn't even sound professional based on her grammar. She she she's the "curator" of the company. A curator is usually someone looking after a museum. Anyway, just be on a lookout for these scammers. It's bad enough trying to look for employment and now scammers on us to do harm.

I added the indeed.com plugin to my blog but when I did it invaded all my adsense ads and it took over the "Related posts" plugin that is supposed to show my other posts. Now my entire blog is overrun by this indeed virus. I contacted Indeed directly about one month ago to remove the account and they said they did but they lied. My account is still open and my blog has been destroyed by these plugins that cannot be removed. I have lost money from adsense and want everyone to beware of this virus plugin. Once you put it on your blog you are done. You can forget about earning an red cent from adsense again because their plugin does not let anything else run. Indeed.com is a scam. They offer absolutely no account closure option or plugin removal option so once you sign up you may as well forget about ever being a part of adsense. I wish I would have known this before. I wasted 4 years on a blog that is now garbage taken over by the indeed virus.

I posted my resume on indeed.com for local employment opportunities. After posting my email box was flooded with 50 messages per day from other employment websites. I assume indeed.com is selling information to these other websites that I didn't sign up for?
I uploaded my resume on the internet to "indeed.com" with personal information and I am convinced it's not secure.
Why... , because since then I have been receiving all this junk in my email box, and not only with job information.
I receive sexually explicit emails from individuals in my area who want to connect with me because they have seen my profile!
Plus emails from russian and asian sites looking for sexual connections.
It has taken me a full day to unsubscribe from all these sites, plus spend money to ramp up my internet security.
I want to know if any other people who have subscribed to "indeed.com" have encountered the same issue?

I uploaded the indeed wordpress job importer to my blog thinking it would make my site more interesting and viewer friendly for jobs, however, as soon as I inserted the indeed job plugin it took over all my other plugins I had on the site. The indeed plugin literally invaded all of my adsense codes and even my "related posts" widget. It literally took over every plugin I had installed for income and even after I turned the indeed plugin off and deactivated it, still it will not get off of my site. This has caused me to lose quite a bit of income through adsense. I have already emailed indeed to remove my account with no answer. I am horrified by this plugin. Do not use the indeed job importer plugin for wordpress. Unless of course you want your entire site to be nothing but indeed jobs and nothing else. I find this to be very virus like and they conveniently make your back office account very vague so there is no options to fix or remove this. This alone set off red flags that this company is not to be trusted! They do this knowing full well it's a problem. I found another thread from a site as a matter of fact that tries to help people get rid of this virus like plugin but to no avail. Indeed.com has made sure once you upload the plugin it's there for life unless they feel like removing it!

I work for a small business that helps low income people. I have relied on indeed for job posting because they are less expensive than other job posting sites. After months of using the site they prevented me from posting jobs and said they needed to verify the account to make sure I was posting real jobs. This part seemed reasonable. I sent them all the information they asked for and then they still wouldn't allow me to post jobs. I asked if there was anything else I could send to have account approved and then sent them everything that would verify that the company is real and not a scam. They wouldn't even look at any of the additional information.

I think it's pretty bad that this job site does have scams on it but when a business who gave them proof of their legitimacy and purpose is to help low income people tries to post jobs they don't allow it.

The worst job board experience we ever had as a firm. We got hooked into a trial for their job posting service by a slick salesman. The service never produced results and we cancelled within 3 weeks of starting it. Indeed hit our credit card for over $2, 300 off of 3 job posts that produced no matches. The 'resume traffic' they sent us was complete junk. When we tried to get our money back we got bounced from supervisor to supervisor with no restitution for the bad service. Your money is better spent staying with cb, monster, linkedin and dice.

Some lady call from indeed office and abuse me wherein I have applied for job in banking sector. Pls treat this complain and and take action againts that job portail. Details for call which I received.. Mobile no: [protected] state: kolkata service provider:tata docomo service type: gsm

We have been placing ads with indeed.com for some time. Some of these ads are paid ads. There were quite a few resumes from prospective employees. We suddenly discovered that all these resumes were wiped clean including the ones that were paid for by us. Our efforts to contact indeed did not yield any results. We just got a curt reply from them saying that they are unable to restore our account and that we would not be able to get in touch with them again in this connection.

Now we notice that they have debited approx $70 from our bank account which is shown as credit in our indeed account. This is just a scam. This is a company with no responsibility towards customers and should be penalized for their irresponsible actions. We intend to move against them legally as they cannot be allowed to take customers for granted.

This is what they wrote to us when we appealed against the "suspension"
"thank you for taking the time to go through our appeal process. We have reviewed your account but are unable to lift the suspension. You are not able to contact job seekers through indeed. Suspension of your ability to contact job seekers has no effect on your ability to post or sponsor jobs on indeed. Further appeals or related communications for this suspension will not be considered or responded to. "
