I guess Indeed will have 2,200 new job seekers on their website.

It's the same for almost every company. In the 00's you could have 5 people supporting a similar working product, now you have to have 5000 for the same.

It’s crazy. Especially this site, it’s a simple database of job postings. There are definitely people there who don’t do anything all day

I think they will opt for LinkedIn.

LinkedIn has been where I've gotten my last 4, maybe 5, jobs. All the recruiters are on there. Since it's patterned after a social media site it's a good communication channel for initial contact, and they can get a good overview of my skill set and location and job wants by checking out my profile.

I hope not, Indeed is garbage. Every day I get their email with job listings, and absolutely none of the jobs there is remotely related to my experience, area, industry, geographic location or interests I set on my profile.

A random "who's hiring" google search is far more accurate. I'm stunned to learn they have more than 2000 employees

Hopefully after working there, they’re smart enough not to use the platform that’s filled with trash listings to exploit the vulnerable
