With Greenhouse Recruiting, you can create free job posts on Indeed with your live external job posts.
Note: Beginning April 1, 2023, Indeed will not allow job post questions that seek personally identifiable information (PII) like full birthdates, driver's license numbers, or social security numbers from applicants. If your job post includes a custom question requesting PII, the job post will be removed from Indeed, and your Indeed account may experience restricted functionality. Reach out to your Indeed representative for more information.
Set up the Indeed integration
To set up the Indeed integration, log in to Greenhouse Recruiting and navigate to Configure > Job Boards > then scroll to Global Partner Settings.
Enter a company email address for Indeed job feed company email. If your company has an Indeed account, use the company email address associated with your Indeed account. If you don't have an Indeed account, use any email address from your company email domain.
Note: To authenticate job posts and avoid spam, Indeed requires a company email address. This email address is used to validate your organization's job posts and is not used for any other purpose.
When finished, click Submit.
Publish a free job post on Indeed
Once the Indeed integration is set up, you can publish a free job post to Indeed. Click Jobs on your navigation bar, then select a job from the list.
Click Job Setup > Job Posts, then add a new job post or click the Edit icon beside the job post you wish to edit.
Scroll to the Publish to free job boards section.
Place a checkbox next to Indeed.
Begin typing a location for Indeed to associate with the job and select the location from the dropdown.
With Indeed, you can post the job as remote and available to a specific location, or remote nationwide and available to a specific country.
Place a checkbox next to Remote.
Example: If Omniva Corporation posts a remote job post to Denver, Colorado, United States, then only people in Denver searching for remote job posts will see the post.
To post the job as remote across an entire country, select Enable nationwide remote location for compatible job boards. You'll still need to select a location so the post can be associated with a country.
Note: Indeed nationwide remote job posts are only available in the United States, New Zealand, Canada, and Australia.
When finished configuring your post, click Save.
Once the job post is live, the job's information is sent to Indeed. To learn about how Indeed promotes job posts, click here.
Note: It can take up to 48 hours for new job posts or updates to appear on Indeed.
Because Indeed offers sponsored posts for better positioning on their site, it isn't possible to repost a job ad in Greenhouse Recruiting to generate a new ad on Indeed. Taking the post down and then reactivating it, or closing and reopening the job will simply re-post the stale job instead of creating a new one.
Candidate source for Indeed job posts
When a candidate applies using a free job post on Indeed, by default their source is listed as Responded to an ad on Indeed.
Indeed salaries
If you post a job to Indeed and don't include salary information, Indeed will automatically include an estimated salary. For more information about this feature, contact Indeed's customer support.
If pay transparency is enabled in Greenhouse and you've included a pay range for your post, your job's salary range will be added to your Indeed post. Learn more about pay transparency.
Alternatively, add a salary range to your Greenhouse job post description, and it will be included on your Indeed job post.
