Anyone here actually work at a job that they found on Indeed?

Everybody always was telling me "post your resume on indeed haha!", so I did. You can't upload your actual resume on there, but rather take your info and put it into their pre-made template.
Received exactly two messages soon after signing up- one for a call center job, another for a position in a far away state that I was uninterested in relocating to. Since then, nada.
A good chunk of the jobs on there are either temp agencies or some other scammy type thing- "150k work from home opportunity!" type garbage

unless i'm missing something, seems like the site isn't that great. I understand that the market it total chit rn but, holy fuk

Just click apply and send your CV document? You don't have to use their template.

if you haven't made 500 applications, and gone back in time to gain more experience, then you aren't trying

based on the other thread, we need to list every skill on the planet on our resumes like the h1b brahs do.

Indeed is the biggest job site in the country lol if you aren't getting results, the problem is your resume/lack of action taken, not Indeed

I did when I was younger in less populated areas. Not super important jobs. My friend found some screening for J.D. only positions.

Checked out Indeed but found their G4P options limited at best. Found employment elsewhere.

This, always check to see if you can find the company's posting on their own website.

I have had better results with Linkedin..as it has more executive level jobs..whereas indeed is flooded with low skill jobs as well.

what i used to do is apply for jobs on linkedin then message the HR or relevant team heads about my application from same company...much much higher response rates.

resume ---> volume apply to 10s or 100s of jobs -----> drop direct message to key employees on linkedin for some of those jobs ---------> schedule interviews --------> get job offers ---------->profit?

job hunting is a marathon, you learn lot of things about yourself and humans in the process..dont give up and keep at it.

funny thing, I've started doing this because the job sites leave out lots of info about the job posting.

Your job opportunities are the ones your network can provide you a personal reference on. If you forget about online random jobs and that you only have your network, you will spend the proper time caring for your network.
but we're miscers, we have no network
