About Indeed

Job seekers have been able to browse millions of vacancies on Indeed since 2004, with listings gathered from thousands of company websites and job boards, at no charge. The company calls itself the number one job site worldwide, with more than 200 million unique visitors a month.

Advertising that is paid for by results

For employers, Indeed works as a recruitment advertising network that charges on performance. That model separates it from traditional recruitment advertising, where a company pays up front for a listing regardless of response.

Applicant tracking functions

Indeed also offers features usually found in applicant tracking software: sourcing candidates, managing jobs, communicating with applicants and scheduling interviews. The company says these come at a fraction of the cost of traditional applicant tracking systems, which makes it an option for employers that want to hire without a full recruiting suite.
