Our entire team utilizes this tool. Additional filter options to drill down via location, keywords, etc. would be helpful.

Time Saving

We've been able to located prospects that weren't actively looking for dry pipelines

Indeed Platform Solution

Used: 1. Indeed resume database search 2. Indeed career fairs 3. Indeed job sponsoring
All of these together helped us get more candidates in a shorter period of time and helped us fill positions quicker.

Based on our views, we can't use it to create shortlists. This is more of a one-off for hard-to-find purple squirrels.

It's very easy to screen out applicants, make notes (which really helps if they are a no-show for an interview) keep track of who we are interested in, so if a position becomes open, we can go back to see who we liked when we did the interview.

Yes, Indeed has a great feature of creating projects and doesn't have a limit for the number of projects. We can add relevant candidates to a project and can reach out to them as per our own time which helps in creating an active pipeline. Indeed has greatly impacted our shortlisting process.

Recruiting Efficiency

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 …

Incentivized

Recruiting Efficiency

We are in an industry that has a very high turnover rate so it is important to always be on the lookout for qualified candidates. Creating shortlists can be extremely helpful in situations like these. We refer to these lists often and it has definitely helped to hire new staff.

Recruiting Efficiency

We are able to easily do this, if they respond to our sourcing email. Without these resumes, our applicant pool would be virtually dry.

Usability

For anyone with a basic understanding of software, I am confident that you could understand the basic functionalities of this tool within a short time. For those looking to explore the automation and advanced features, some research/tutorials are recommended so you don't spend more time than necessary setting these up. I believe someone could figure it out on their own, but with such an expansive reservoir of resources, your time is better spent doing some basic research prior to setting up automation.

Indeed allows users to create their resume via Indeed which is very detailed and organized. Indeed's resumes are very well written, clear and concise. The user interface is even suitable for Junior recruiters and one can easily learn the basics of Indeed and get the maximum potential out of Indeed resumes. The features available are good and don't over-complex the requirements. Also, Indeed offers a lot of search filters which allows us to target the right candidates.

Overall it is the best product for quick searching and sourcing, but it is costly and prices continue to increase each budget year. We will continue to use it as it gives us the best conversion rate for finding candidates and hiring them over any other job page out there right now.

Lots of features that an ordinary word document or spreadsheet has, Indeed Resume does not have [in my opinion]. Because of this I'm not able to personalize as much as I'd like. This is a severe drawback, as I can still upload my personalized formats and resumes, as long as I work outside the Indeed Resume system, thus making it an unnecessary feature that only applies to one universe of products/services.
