Can confirm. I don't think I've been shown a single authentic job posting on Indeed. It's mostly low-quality consulting filler.

- azemetre 4y agoMan I thought it was just me, but yeah Indeed is truly terrible. My only way of getting interviews has been linkedin (both applying to and getting messaged) or directly applying on company's websites thus far in my career. Are there any other job boards that are actually authentic?
- irrational 4y agoStackoverflow used to have a really good job board that we got great candidates from. I was really sad to see it go away.
- bbbnnnmmmkjkj 4y agoAgree with this. Forgot they removed the board as it’s been kind of a while now. One thing I didn’t really like was having your stack overflow profile be relevant in hiring decisions - probably good for some/many devs though

- MichaelRo 4y agoI heard GlassDoor also has jobs but I never used them, only LinkedIn and Indeed (I'm EU-based). Never got hired through Indeed but they have a few jobs that aren't on LinkedIn. Also, is it me not knowing to use Indeed or does their interface not support the most basic thing? EU-wide search. With LinkedIn I type "European Union" in the location box, shows me all EU. Indeed, I have to select every individual country, it's much more limiting and I'm getting bored fast. Sure, I can select "United States" but dudes, having EU countries listed individually with no option of doing a whole area search is like having to manually search "Arkansas" or "Oklahoma" jobs in the US, it's retarded and myopic to say the least.
- Yoric 4y agoEU-based dev here. Recently, I've been using: - Hired (1 lead, did match my profile but not what I wanted to do); - HiredSweet (0 leads); - WellFound (a few interesting leads); - Hacker News Who's Hiring (a few interesting leads); - Hacker News Who Wants to be Hired (a few interesting leads); - LinkedIn applying (a few interesting leads); - LinkedIn messaged (dozens of leads); - Reddit /r/rust (a few interesting leads).
- SoftTalker 4y agoI can’t figure out why there seems to be a new heavily advertised jobs/employment site every couple of years. The first one I remember was monster.com. Now it’s Indeed. There have been a number of others. Why do these sites spring up, seem to be everywhere, and then get replaced after a couple of years?
