Indeed Hiring Platform Reviews & Product Details

I use Indeed Hiring Platform for sourcing candidates for my freelance projects and it has been the most reliable platform for finding the right people. Few things I like most:

- Huge pool of candidates across all roles and skill sets, easy to find the right match quickly

- Posting a job is very simple and straightforward, get applications within hours

- Filters help me narrow down candidates based on skills, experience and location without going through every application manually

- Direct messaging makes it easy to communicate with candidates and discuss project details

- Resume search helps me find and shortlist the right profiles without waiting for applications

- The platform is reliable and easy to use, no technical knowledge needed to manage postings and candidates Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No big dislikes, but sometimes I receive a high volume of applications that are not relevant to the role, so manual screening still takes time. Also sponsored posts can get expensive quickly, a more flexible pricing option would be helpful for freelancers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For recruiters, Indeed is the best option as it simplifies and scales the entire hiring process. Indeed aggregates millions of job seekers at a single platform you can post a job in minutes and get a lot of job seekers showing interest in the opportunity which comes out to be suitable matches and can even result in closures. The interface is straight forward so even our small team without any technical support can simply use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the resume search feature is useful, it often includes outdated profiles, inactive candidates and incomplete resumes. Also sometimes indeed stands out to be very expensive. The paid contacts are very expensive to even contact to one candidate and only choosing paid contacts helps you get the contact information for the candidate.

Indeed has become the place to go for all of our applicants. It allows us as the employer to be able to sponsor jobs, recruit, manage posts, and budget for our hiring needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to see more AI involved to help select and promote top applicants. It can take a lot of time to proactively work to find applicants who are a good fit for jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the Indeed Hiring Platform for its access to a large candidate pool and its user-friendly interface, which makes it easy to manage applications and saves time during recruiting. The platform's search filters help identify suitable candidates efficiently. Additionally, I appreciate the responsive customer support and reliable performance of the platform.

I am able to list multiple job openings for multiple business locations and organize all candidates in one system. I also use text, email, and call through the platform directly to candidates. It reaches a large audience of candidates compared to other platforms and keeps hiring organized, especially with multiple business locations. Managers can screen applicants with questions, we can schedule interviews and message applicants, making it super easy to find and hire people faster. I like that we can sponsor job posts to boost visibility, and employers can search us unlike on other platforms. For candidates, they can apply super easy with a click of a button. The Indeed Hiring Platform has a way bigger pool of candidates compared to other platforms and the initial setup is extremely easy. It's easy for both the business and candidates to use, and we get way more applicants faster than any other platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if there was an option to organize better quality candidates, a way to weed out the not qualified candidates. I would suggest having more than a one click option for candidates to apply to receive more qualified candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows all of my company offices access to one standard account so that all job posting are visible for everyone. It helps with cross-office workload help. Also, Indeed seems to be the go to for most candidates, so I feel the talent pool for positions I'm filling is greatest on Indeed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s almost like they tried to make the UI too friendly, but it ended up feeling “clunky” instead. I also don’t like that after three months I lose access to applicants’ contact information once their applications are three months old or older. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I post jobs, review candidates, and use the candidate tracking platform on Indeed Hiring Platform. It handles my hiring from start to finish, serving as the essential puzzle piece in my process until I make a hire. I like the ability to communicate with candidates directly on the platform. I really enjoy using the interview scheduling feature. Once I review candidates and decide whom to interview, I can send them an interview request that only shows my availability, saving a lot of time in back-and-forth scheduling. It also saves administrative time like adding events to my calendar, downloading resumes, and making phone calls. They have continued to add features, which has been great.

I seem to run into a lot of trouble logging in and the site can be slow sometimes. It is also very feature-rich which can make it difficult to find what I am looking for. Fix any log in bugs associated with the two factor authentication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform itself is fairly easy to use. Posting jobs, managing applicants, and tracking performance doesn’t take much time once you’re familiar with it. I also like the filtering options, which help narrow down candidates without having to dig through every single application manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost to use the platform is not as affordable. Sponsored jobs are often necessary to get visibility, but pricing can increase quickly and isn’t always predictable. It can sometimes feel like you’re paying more just to maintain the same level of exposure, which makes budgeting a bit frustrating.

Also, the filtering and screening tools help, but they’re not perfect. Even with knock‑out questions in place, unqualified candidates still make it through, so manual review is still very much required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best is how easy it is to reach a large pool of candidates quickly. The platform makes posting jobs, reviewing applicants, and managing outreach very straightforward, which helps speed up the hiring process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside is that you often receive a high volume of applications, and not all of them are qualified. It can take extra time to sort through candidates to find the right fit, depending on the role. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
