Hi Charles, we know job searching can be tough and discouraging, especially when you're not hearing back from employers. While Indeed isn't directly involved in the hiring process, we recommend checking out this resource on our Career Guide about what to do if you're not hearing back from employers: https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/finding-a-job/what-to-do-if-you-arent-hearing-back-from-employers. We wish you the best of luck in your job search!
How are you suppose to find a job if…
How are you suppose to find a job if this cruel company block you for a mistake made instead of giving you a warning. Put a honest review, trying to stop someone else enter a building that’s as toxic as they come to now I can’t apply for jobs. Ridiculous, no wonder so many people unemployed because of these websites making you go bankrupt, homeless & with bad credit. DO NOT USE THIS JOB WEBSITE OR GLASSDOOR AS THEY ARE LINKED.

Hi, Curtis! We completely understand and empathize with how tough and discouraging the job search can feel, especially when you're not hearing back from employers. At Indeed, our mission is to help people get jobs. While we provide the tools and platform to connect employers with job seekers, hiring decisions and outreach are handled directly by employers themselves. That means we unfortunately can’t guarantee a response to every application. To support you during this time, we recommend exploring our Career Guide, which offers valuable advice and resources: https://www.indeed.com/career-advice. Additionally, this article specifically addresses what to do if you aren't hearing back from employers: https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/finding-a-job/what-to-do-if-you-arent-hearing-back-from-employers. In addition, to search and apply for jobs on Indeed, it is completely free. Indeed does offer paid services such as resume reviews; however, those services are optional. We wish you the best of luck in your job search!
Avoid. Far too many spam emails......

I hate Indeed SO MUCH
Indeed is the most annoying and aggravating job site.
Its algorithms are so so bad you cant trust that its not filtering out the actual job you might want to see. Every time I'm on it I feel sick to my stomach. Good job on making the worst job in the world - of searching for a new job - such a terrible experience.

access denied despite log in credentials correct
Tried to access account but username and log in not sufficient, asking for old information I do not have anymore. Contacted customer service 5 times and they continue sending me in a loop.. ask for a new password.. and yes, same old information is requested. Just forget about this platform, time wasters.

Hopeless login process
Hopeless login process. Demanded two factor authentication one of the options was sending an email. There was also a warning about the token expiring after 10 min. I waited close to 10 minutes checking both spam and inbox. It eventually arrived but had expired. Pathetic. Just use seek.

Hi AJ, we take the experience of our job seekers on Indeed very seriously, we are very sorry to hear that you are experiencing this. We are not directly involved in the hiring process for the jobs appearing on Indeed, this is entirely the employers decision who they hire but we are always trying to improve this.
If you come across a posting on Indeed that you have concerns about please send us an email to trustpilot@indeed.com with more details so we can ensure it is investigated.
Used Indeeed for years... Account Suspended for 2 months now...
I have used Indeed for years both to search for jobs and to post jobs. Up until December of 2025 I had a good experience using them. But in December of 2025 my account was suspended because I sent a mass email (which is an option that Indeed allows) to people who had applied to one position. In my email I pointed them to another position I had posted. I started getting responses, but within a few minutes my account was shut down/suspended. It has been suspended ever since.
To make this short, I have reached out to Indeed numerous times to resolve this and have followed their steps to resolve it, but I'm still being told I either have to do more or that they aren't able to help. I have spent hours trying to get this resolved and it still hasn't been resolved. It has been extremely frustrating, and has been a waste of time.

Employers beware....
After reading through resumes and actively messaging canidates for a week my account goes in a 24 hour review and locks out the canidates and messaging. Which is completely unprofessional look for my business, since I'm already actively messaging canidates. This review process needs to be changed by indeed and should be done before any job listing is posted. After talking with multiple indeed representitives they tell me I will get notified in 24 to 72 hours of any documentation needed. The whole process could take up to 5 to 7 business days before the review lock ends.

Hi Baback — thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry for the frustration.
To clarify how Indeed works: employers pay per click to advertise a role on Indeed, not per applicant. While we don’t participate in your hiring process, we do offer tools to help improve applicant relevance — for example, optimizing the job description, using screening questions and filters, and adjusting targeting. You can also pause or close a job at any time if you’re seeing too many, too few, or irrelevant applications.
If you’d like, we can review your job setup and share tailored recommendations to help you reach more qualified candidates.
Feel free to contact us at trustpilot@indeed.com, if you need any assistance, we are happy to help!

Hi Al, to explain, Indeed’s search engine is built to surface the most relevant roles, but broad keyword matching or limited context can occasionally pull in unrelated results. We’re continually refining this so the right jobs show up first. To get the most relevant results, enter keywords between quotation marks related to the job you want (for example: "Social Media Manager").
We would also advise checking out our Career Guide page: https://www.indeed.com/career-advice, there are some great resources here that will assist with all areas of your job search.
Good luck with your job search!

Initially
Initially, I contacted to get support and they made it sound like I would be able to get it. It turns out I cannot.
There's no good reason.
Refuting Indeed's false claims:
I have contacted support multiple times about this problem and they refuse to help. They claim "it's not possible" but it certainly is. As a result, it's untenable to work with Indeed. I'll keep trying, but support is not supportive.

I live in Daventry not Timbuktu.
I live in Daventry. Anything with a postcode other than NN11 is NOT Daventry. Somehow, Indeed seem to completely fail to grasp this simple fact I can not walk or cycle up the motorway 15 miles.
Every time I receive an email claiming to have the perfect job for me, I'm left annoyed and disappointed. My most recent offering was headed as a job in Daventry, then the first line read Bicester! 27 miles away!

I just want to see jobs I am searching for...
I am a certified secondary school administrator. I am looking to become a small school principal or assistant principal. To work that, I set my filters and "bang" I get 416 jobs that "match" my search. No I did not search for a Behavior Technicians role, an FBI agent role, a Pre School teacher, a Nurses Assistant etc. I had to go through 23 RIDICULOUSLY non-matched role to even get to a job opening even remotely close to what I was in theory "looking" for. PATHETIC!

So many Ghost jobs exaggerated salaries
So many Ghost jobs. The employers of several sales related job posting just put in any weird salary range like 80k - 200k?? Later you find out it’s fully commission - no base salary at all. Anybody can attract talent my posting disingenuous and exaggerated earning projections. Later the same employers complain when the talent leaves after realizing no matter what they do the higher end was not even achievable from the get go. Employers complain about attracting the wrong talent only because they lied from the beginning
