1. [R2] Indeed Job Search 4/5 · US Never got a job yet but this is a good app for jobs: Never got a job yet but this is a good app for jobs
2. [R8] Indeed Job Search 5/5 · US Best app job hunt: Awesome app for job hunting. Always posting great places to work.
3. [R19] Indeed Job Search 1/5 · US - Honest review: In my four years of using indeed, I have applied for over fifty eight jobs and haven’t heard back from a single one, I recommend ZipRecruiter I have found two jobs in only a month of looking. Indeed is trash don’t waste your time and don’t give them your data to collect.
4. [R63] LinkedIn 3/5 · US Cannot Access Certain Features Unless You Pay: I can no longer extensively browse people through search because I have to pay in order to look at more than 5 people but I can't afford to pay for the monthly or yearly membership as it's ridiculously priced. I understand how Premium makes sense for the job application process but everyone should have unlimited access to the search capabilities.
5. [R5] Indeed Job Search 4/5 · US Not scrolling: I have used indeed for years but for some reason the job descriptions aren’t scrolling for me now. I deleted it and then tried not using extensions. I went to the help page and did what it said. Still nothing. Please fix this!
6. [R12] Indeed Job Search 3/5 · US Bug fixes: OK when I try to hit on the show more for any job the page freezes. The app does not need an update so I’m not sure what’s going on but I’m having difficulty with the app itself right now and the update just happened so you need more bug fixes.
7. [R46] Indeed Job Search 1/5 · US A waste of time: I don’t normally write reviews here but Indeed boils my blood. It’s near impossible to get an employer to even respond to you let alone give you the respect of a rejection message. The majority of job listings on this platform simply don’t exist/reach anybody. This app also loves resetting your location preferences every time you open it, making it even harder to browse jobs that
8. [R67] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Once I paid, it crashes every time I open it: Once I upgraded to premium. Every time I open the app on my iPad it prompts me for an update. And doesn't allow me to do anything. I click update. Which brings up the App Store. Asking me to open the app. And it starts all over again, prompting me for the update. I've deleted the app. Reinstalled the app. I can do nothing on LinkedIn. Because all I get
9. [R10] Indeed Job Search 1/5 · US Now promoting fake jobs!: A company from India has all kinds of hiring all over Indeed however after speaking with the community we have all applied at the Company Data Annotation however I am hearing that all they are doing is conducting interviews and not actually hiring anyone. While the questions are genuine the intent is not, but most of us AI programmers are stepping away from indeed because
10. [R91] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Verification process: The verification process is tedious and useless. I’ve spent over an hour trying to log into MY account, change password, etc. Nothing works. Please fix this, there are so many verification options and recaptcha is unreliable.
11. [R112] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Absolute scam: Do not pay for premium, will flood your inbox, generate no leads or pointless offers, and won’t let you easily unsubscribe. Don’t download or subscribe. Go to indeed.
12. [R94] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Bad app: Too expensive and doesn’t work even when you pay.
13. [R106] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Used to be good, makes you pay money for nothing now: Cool concept but LinkedIn like other platforms has succumbed to paid tiers. The app handicaps you unless you pay monthly.
14. [R100] LinkedIn 1/5 · US Customer Service about hacked Account: I tried to Get my account back multiple times after finding out my account was Hijacked and now being impersonated, And now the LinkedIn customer service is just ignoring my plead, so if this doesn’t get resolved or have my Number Changed to my Actual number 1386, I Will personally File a Lawsuit For Discrimination Against My Data
15. [R89] LinkedIn 5/5 · US LinkedIn: LinkedIn is an excellent platform for professional networking and career growth. It’s very useful for job seekers and professionals.
