The heart of the internet
Indeed is just a glorified OnLuck casino parasite of a website and most of the jobs you find on there are false doors. Indeed works by scraping hundreds or thousands of other websites for real job postings, and recreates the information as a new job in its own format. An overwhelming majority of jobs posted here are clones.
{
- Applying to these cloned jobs does absolutely nothing.
- Don’t apply to anything more than two weeks old.
- Is it a waste of time to revisit Indeed?
- I hear about certain convenient features about Indeed, like being able to essentially “mass apply” to a number among roles at a time.
- Is it safe to respond to a direct text message from an employer?

When Indeed automatically denies my application, does the employer still see it?
- This includes random jobs, online employers, sites that pay you and ways to monetize websites.
- Yes, you can still find some legitimate postings on here for success.
- As the employer, I have the option to pay per application received or do a free post.
- Use indeed as a resource to find job postings, but then go directly to a company’s website to search for the job and apply directly with them.
- Speaking of resumes, do NOT use Indeed’s resumes to apply to anything.
- The free posts get less traction and are generally less visible on Indeed so I strictly utilize the paid version.

Yes, you can still find some legitimate postings on here for success. Is it a waste of time to revisit Indeed? There’s one job I’m looking at with about 4 listing on Indeed. I was originally going to apply on Indeed then noticed one of the other listings had an option to directly apply on the company’s website. I’ve applied to over 200 jobs the last few months. As the employer, I have the option to pay per application received or do a free post.

Has anyone actually landed a job on Indeed
Don’t apply to anything more than two weeks old. Old and filled postings are nearly impossible to take down, so most are just left to time out through the site. This includes random jobs, online employers, sites that pay you and ways to monetize websites.
An Insight on Indeed from the Employer POV
Applying to these cloned jobs does absolutely nothing. I’m not applying to wild jobs or anything. I hear about certain convenient features about Indeed, like being able to essentially “mass apply” to a number among roles at a time. Use indeed as a resource to find job postings, but then go directly to a company’s website to search for the job and apply directly with them.
“Not selected by employer” indeed
The free posts get less traction and are generally less visible on Indeed so I strictly utilize the paid version. Is it safe to respond to a direct text message from an employer? Speaking of resumes, do NOT use Indeed’s resumes to apply to anything.
