Overall Satisfaction with Indeed Hiring Platform

Indeed Hiring Platform is utilized in several different ways. For direct sourcing and hiring events, I don't have many problems with the platform, but I do wish there were more options to narrow searches/criteria when sourcing. For the hiring events, I wish there was a better way to qualify candidates we will be talking to prior to the interview to make sure they aren't wasting their own time or ours with a position they are not necessarily the right fit for.
  • Providing a broad range of candidates
  • The messaging options
  • Giving good reasons/feedback for not being interested in a certain position
  • Increased search options/criteria
  • Bringing better candidate matches (don't provide candidates who haven't updated their resume recently!)
  • Improving/streamlining sourcing
  • Definitely return on investment
  • Marketing/advertising my company and myself as a resource for job searching
I think Indeed Hiring Platform heavily outweighs Zip and CareerBuilder in terms of quality of candidates and candidate reach. It is most similar to LinkedIn in terms of success with sourcing candidates. Still, as stated in the previous question, I believe LinkedIn is more qualified in terms of higher-level/higher-paid candidates.

Yes

Would you buy Indeed Hiring Platform again?

Yes

It's well suited for large-scale sourcing and lower-level candidates, but I have not had the best success with higher-level candidates past a certain pay grade. It may be worth looking into to try and attract some higher-level candidates (typically, I switch to LinkedIn for those).
