📢Job Distribution & BoardsAbout Indeed for Employers
Indeed is the world's largest job site, providing employers access to a massive global candidate database. Employers can post jobs for free with organic visibility or sponsor listings for increased reach. The platform includes a basic ATS for managing applicants, screening questions, and candidate communication. Indeed's reach is unmatched for inbound candidate volume, particularly for non-specialist and hourly roles. The pay-per-application and pay-per-click sponsored models give employers control over their spending. The free posting option makes it accessible for businesses of any size. Indeed's ATS is basic and most companies use it alongside a dedicated ATS. The sponsored posting costs can escalate quickly in competitive markets. Candidate quality from free postings can be inconsistent, with high volumes of unqualified applicants for popular listings.
