I’ve always hated indeed.com for one reason or another and have never been able to hire any single candidates in the past.
Firstly it takes hell lot of time to post a job. They have got those stupid fields on job posting page which don’t make any sense.
Once you bear with their lengthy job posting process and manage to post the job, they will close the job sighting one or other reasons. In some cases they even close account.
In the latest fuck up, indeed.com is showing me following message all of sudden. The message doesn’t make any sense and there is no explanation for the same.
This job has been flagged and must be sponsored to go live on Indeed.
So it’s a nice way to extort money.
Why don’t they just make it paid job posting site and save our precious time.
Searching for this error doesn’t show many results however you will find an interesting site where some of the other employers have also complained about the same issue. Interesting site BTW 🙂

Solution
There is no solution other than post jobs on other good and free job sites. Some of these totally free job sites are listed below. If you know any free job sites then let me know in the comments below and I’ll check it out before adding in the list below.
Free Job Sites
100% free job sites, no restrictions whatsoever. Jobs are approved same day. It has very good response rate. Job stays active for long time. You can also request them to list it for long time if you wish.
Who would have known that GOV.UK will have a job site. I discover it by accident. I posted a job, got some response but nothing serious though. Give it a try.
It is a tech forum and it has Jobs category where you can post jobs for free. You can post jobs in any sector.
