Ignorance and misinformation
I looked at a book-keepers job in Much Wenlock. Shropshire.
When I exited a pop up appeared telling me Talent.com have 437 listings of book keeping jobs in Much Wenlock.
The total population there is under 3000!
How can you have any confidence in the efficiency and integrity of an outfit that makes such ludicrous claims?

Hi Fiona, thank you for your comment. We are sorry to hear that you're not having an exceptional experience on our site. For those kinds of job recommendations, our website often displays jobs in nearby towns as well as remote jobs from abroad that you might be interested in. However, we will take your feedback into account as we aim to offer more and more accurate results to your job search.
Crap hiring/job & advise site
Crap hiring/job & advise site.
Get an email saying apply for this job as XYZ company is URGENTLY HIRING etc. Click on the link in the email and get a message saying the job is no longer hiring or has been filled. WTAF??? You managed to hire someone in the 14.03 seconds it took for the email to load and for me to click on the link after I recieved the email 7 seconds ago? Clearly a 🐃💩 site. Tried unsubscribing to emails but it STILL sends them - this behaviour is worse than an ex who can't take no for an answer. This and indeed need to be banned for stealing your details and leading people up the garden path and wasting their time. In future I will just stick with applying through the actual employers site. As least that way I know I won't get jerked around as much as talent do.

Hello Jason,
We're sorry you had this experience. For us, it is very important to carry out your requests as soon as possible. If you deactivate your email alerts, sometimes it takes up about 48 hours to be completely removed. if you continue receiving emails, please reach out to us at hello@talent.com and we will remove your email address immediately.
Absolute waste of time for a job…
Absolute waste of time for a job seeker.
Have wasted lengthy time trying to apply for multiple positions but will not let me upload my resume no matter what the file type is.
Unable to contact talent.com directly to address this.
I suspect the jobs are fake and no means to contact anyone for feedback has lost me and my attempts to seek work.
Absolute crap!

Hello Joanna!
We are very sorry that you've had this experience with our platform. As a job indexer, Talent.com acts as a channel between candidates and employers, similar to how Google indexes and displays content from websites across the Internet. For us, it is very important to hear your comments, so if you want to report a fake job or let us know more about the issue that you found related to the resume upload process, please reach out to us at hello@talent.com. We will proceed to take action to prevent this from happen to other people. All our best wishes, Talent team.
Scam - the jobs do not exist
The jobs do not exist, it’s a scam. I’ve wasted a lot of time preparing an application that didn’t exist on the actual employers website.

We are sorry that you've experienced this situation on our site. Sometimes, once a job closes, the job postings on our website can take a few hours to reflect the changes. Our team is always looking to update our job postings as frequently as possible, so we will inform our team about your issue and work to find a solution soon!
Scam site, probably selling your data.
Unwanted emails you can't unsubscribe to, you click the links but their systems are set up to ignore the request. Same jobs emailed and all refer you on and on to other sites. This place is a total scam and should be avoided. From reading the other reviews I am not alone in this conclusion.

Hi Douglas! We understand your frustration. When you unsubscribe from email alerts, sometimes our system can take up to 48 hours to update. After this time period, you shouldn't receive any more emails. However, if you continue to receive them, please let us know at hello@talent.com, and our team will act promptly to solve the issue.
You can rest assured your information is treated safely as we comply with each country's data law, and data selling isn't allowed in any of the countries we operate.
On the other hand, our website doesn't host many job listings directly. In fact, Talent.com indexes millions of jobs available online in just one place, so job seekers will be redirected to the main source where you apply directly. It's similar to how Google indexes and displays content from most websites across the Internet.
We'll be waiting for your message to solve any remaining issues immediately!
Expired or non existent jobs
Unfortunately this is another website carrying on with the trend of marketing fake jobs or jobs that have expired. Do yourself a favour and ignore this company and their site.

All Talent.com reviews, summarized.
I’ve been reading these reviews because I can’t apply to any jobs. It asks me to make an account with Talent.com which I don’t want to do. After I hit the skip button (so that I can apply to UPS on their company website) I get redirected to one of Talent.com’s partners… so anyways I’ve been reading these reviews, and anytime that Talent.com replies they just victim blame and say it’s our fault. WOW. I will never again use this site. I recommend anyone reading this to stay FAR FAR AWAY as well. Cheers mates.

Gave me computer viruses :(
Went to the website and they gave me multiple computer viruses. Avoid at all costs!
Edit: They want me to "reach out to them to tell them of my experience". I literally told them everything that happened in my review: I went to the website. It gave me a computer virus. I don't know what more that they could possibly want from me.

This is a scam....just realised it as an employer when I posted my job and stupidly gave them my credit card details so that I could be billed every time someone clicked on my job posting. Soon after I received an email from them asking for my company website and my company email address? This is when I smelled a rat as the company website was already listed in my post and why should it matter what email address prospective employees reply to?
Websites should be closed down.

Hello Fiona, we regret and difficulties you experienced with the posting process on our site. When it comes to quality, it's important that the jobs we display are verified. Verifying an employer account inspects an employer's website if less than a year old, and we also pay specific attention to Gmail or Outlook domains in place of a corporate email to prevent suspicious activity on our site. Please write to us at support@talent.com at your earliest convenience so we can review your particular case.
the weakest site ever
the weakest site ever. poor poor poor. I will post this on social media as well. Nothing more than a bunch of time wasters and prey on the needy. Organization's or lack of organization like your selves should be banned from the internet.
From an employer.
Absolutely disgusting, this should be advertised as a scam on Linkedin as well

Rob, we are very sorry you failed to find the best experience on Talent.com. We act as an intermediary to connect job seekers with companies advertising job vacancies related to their interests. In exercising these functions, one or another miscategorized company can get in. However, we make it our top priority to provide the safest options for job seekers, and we will always act as soon as possible to filter out those companies that violate our policies.
Waste of time
Applied for jobs and no reply at all, and I can assure you I am qualified! This site appears to be nothing more than fake jobs to collect data.

Hi Todd! We're sorry that you're experiencing some difficulties receiving replies from potential employers. Talent.com is an intermediary between candidates and employers. We host jobs on our site, but we do not play a role in reviewing applications or in candidate selection. Unfortunately, there are times when employers do not take the time to reply to candidates and inform them about the status of their applications. We recommend checking out our article detailing how to follow up after applying, with email samples to help you draft your letter to employers for some clarity. We wish you the best of luck in your future job search efforts!

I wrote an ad to hire teachers
I wrote an ad to hire teachers. My ad kept getting flagged. I called repeatedly, being told it was maybe just a mistake and more information was needed. After about 2 months of this, I called again and was told customer service would correct it. The next day, I received an email from Lucie Ruello stating my ad was being permanently deleted? What? No answers to my emails. More trouble than they're worth. Dana Segur

Your safety is one of our top priorities. There are, however, some instances where our team can miss content categorized as a scam.
As an aggregator of public content, we take measures to ensure we're crediting the right source. We also redirect job seekers to this same job source and forward any information written in the application form to the employer.
You can be sure that we are doing all the necessary research to improve the quality of our content and prevent other people from being negatively impacted.
They need better screening
They need better screening. I found my first and only employment scam via this website. Someone from Talent even put me in touch with the scammer via text. Indeed, which alerts jobseekers to possible scams or unverified employers, is much safer.
