After years of using Indeed as a recruiter, they cut me off and won't let me have an employer account. I believe the issue started when I used a VPN before a trip to Italy. It seems that using a VPN triggers account rejection on Indeed, though this isn't openly communicated. I plan to share this publicly wherever I can, so others like me avoid using VPNs. However, this will also tip off bad actors, who will likely find new workarounds. Despite my efforts to resolve the issue, I’ve received no help. It’s disappointing to see a company with such a large share of entry-level job seekers treating users this way. This has been a colossal waste of 6 weeks of my time and money trying to start new LLCs and websites to get through the mysterious gates of Indeed.
