Using Indeed? Here's what one feed misses.

What Indeed is great at

Indeed is the largest job aggregator on the web — by most estimates 200–250 million monthly visitors — and it's free to search. If a role is posted almost anywhere, there's a good chance it shows up on Indeed. For sheer coverage at zero cost, it's a sensible place to start.

Where one board falls short

Indeed sorts by relevance and keywords, not by how well a role fits your goals and resume — so the ranking is generic and you're left scanning. At that volume the noise compounds: duplicate postings of the same role, expired listings that were never taken down, and "ghost jobs" with no real intent to hire. More results isn't the same as better results.

How PursuitRoom sits on top

PursuitRoom doesn't replace Indeed — it sits on top of it. We aggregate openings across Google for Jobs (which indexes Indeed's coverage and more) plus direct company career-page feeds, remove the duplicates, and give every opening a five-dimension Match score (title, scope, comp, industry, location) and a separate resume-fit score, each with a one-line reason. You get Indeed's breadth without Indeed's scroll — one ranked shortlist instead of a keyword feed.

FAQ

Is Indeed good for job search?

Yes for coverage — it's the largest aggregator and free to search. The limitation is sorting: Indeed ranks by relevance and keywords, not by how a role fits your goals and resume, and at that volume duplicates and expired listings add noise.

How do I cut Indeed's noise?

PursuitRoom ingests Indeed's coverage via Google for Jobs plus company ATS feeds, removes duplicates, and scores every opening on five dimensions plus resume-fit — so you start from a ranked shortlist instead of a keyword feed.
