I'd say not at all. Again, if you'd like to ONLY use Indeed, this tool may be useful. I've found my organization relies on multiple avenues of advertising jobs, thus "creating shortlists of candidates" is useful on the Indeed platform, but it does not extend to other job posting sites. If you …

Indeed Resume is the perfect sourcing tool for entry-level to manager-level candidates, I find it is way better than other sourcing tools for these levels of candidates in terms of finding qualified resumes and response rates. It is less appropriate for looking at a candidate's Senior Manager level on up due to the lack of qualified candidates in these categories.

I think Indeed Resume is well suited if you're a budget conscious individual looking to fill 3-4 jobs at a time. The analytics that Indeed provides good data on cost per click metrics and things like that. I don't think Indeed Resume is as effective if you're trying to fill say, 10+ jobs and you have a budget of $500/month. It's tough to get traction in that regard and your budget will most likely get chewed up without having too much to show in the way of results.

If you'd like to find a specific type of applicant for a recurring position, you can set up a search criterion that delivers new persons' resumes to your inbox at whatever interval you'd like. If you'd like to search for persons with relevant experience in their resumes, you can. If you'd like to search for persons who have worked at a specific company or in a specific role, you can. This tool allows you to filter down the candidates based on when their resume was updated, the last employer they worked for, and many more details. Ultimately, if you can conceive an ideal candidate on paper, theoretically, you could set up a search to find that candidate.

It helps find a lot of people for positions, the problem is people that don't show up for interviews and ghost you after. I think many people use it for reporting to unemployment, so they don't lose their benefits. We have definitely hired the majority of our people from Indeed Resume. I did use Iowa Workforce with NO results. Indeed Resume is much better!

Indeed Resume works well for the candidates who are more active in the job search at Indeed Jobs Portal. Also, if you are setting up a new career in the industry then an Indeed Resume is a good option to start with. The overall experience is good, effective, and simple in comparison to other profile-building websites.

Indeed Resume has been well suited in areas where there is not a lot of traction or candidates to apply.

It has been less appropriate in heavier areas where there are many more candidates available to apply on their own without the invite or having to search for their resume.

Indeed is a great tool to source resumes on any kind of roles across the USA, however, it shines when we recruit on roles where candidates are not so easily available and helps us close very niche roles. As an example, we might be able to see 10-15 matching resumes for a particular role on Monster Search and Careerbuilder. However, if we look for the same types of candidates in the same location on Indeed, we easily get 40-50 qualified candidates.

Indeed is a great resource, however, you can only get candidate information if you purchase a subscription. I would suggest a one-time use fee or some other sort of parameter as opposed to a monthly/annual subscription. Since we use Indeed on an as-needed basis, it isn't cost-effective for us to purchase a subscription.

It is well suited for jobs on Indeed. Obviously, this covers a lot of jobs and job seekers, but is by no means complete. For jobs posted OUTSIDE of Indeed, this is not a useful tool [I feel]. For jobs posted inside Indeed, it is useful, but only to an extent. I do not find it any better than creating your own resume (which includes a larger selection of fonts and formatting) and uploading it to Indeed, making it searchable, etc. If you are completely inside the Indeed Jobs portal, this may be a fine tool, for any job seekers or employers, if you advertise outside of Indeed, it has its limitations.

Indeed [Resume] has sorted out many applicants—some in our favor but others should not have applied when they do not fit the requirements. Sometimes the applicants do not live locally, so I wish that more questions were asked to the applicant to be able to weed out underqualified applicants.

Indeed Resume is great for various types/levels of positions. For high volume roles, it's a must. In this market, we cannot wait for candidates... we must seek them out. With Indeed Resume, we are able to find those candidates and drive them to our career site. Even for more professional level roles, Indeed Resume is great... I could see a mixture of Indeed Resume and LinkedIn for executive level roles.

Indeed [Resume] is great when looking for candidates that are not highly recruited on a daily basis. For example, software developers are already contacted 6-7 times per week through LinkedIn and other avenues, so Indeed is typically not a great source when looking for those types of candidates. But for other IT positions like management level, Project Managers, Business Analysts, Network Engineers, Indeed is a great source when recruiting those positions.

It's [Indeed Resume] well suited if you are looking to save time and do not want to wait for the candidates to apply for your job requisition. It gives you direct contact with potential candidates and there is a huge number of resumes to choose from. You can filter your search depending on the job, location, and set of skills.
