My friend is setting up interviews for her company and she setting them up through Indeed because she said Indeed collects fees for interviews and hiring. The resumes only have an Indeed email and no phone #’s or addresses. Only the town they live in. Some names I can’t even pronounce. Many seem maybe Indian. I would think you would want to call and do a phone interview first but she has been putting in a time and they confirm it. Then it’s a video conference through the app. Are some of these resumes fake or overseas? One he did say was in India but the town listed was local in NY
There are also non-jobs out there, job postings that have the successful candidate selected way in advance.
Entirely irrelevant to the thread topic, and also not very likely - as the employer would be paying for that posting. Indeed is crap about taking postings down once they have been filled. However, the ones you’re speaking of are going to be posted internally on the employer site.
When I worked for a F100 in the past, we had to post every job for 5 days, even if it was an internal promotion. So the person who earned the promotion through their own hard work still had to apply and interview. What a waste of time.

I use Indeed for hiring fairly often and hire in the Seattle area. I've not received any resumes I found suspicious.
I still see plenty of unqualified or out of area candidates responding but that's always been the case to one degree or another.
I run the ad then use Indeed messaging to set up phone screens for potentially qualified candidates. The screen is simply reiterating what the ad stated and confirming they know the company, position, wage, and location/commute.
Relevant as it shows more corruption on the part of the job site. They allow both fake resumes and fake jobs.

They're required to so to maintain plausible deniability. Top talent will bolt if they get a sniff that the recruiting process is rigged for cronyism.
"We had to put 20 candidates through our rigorous screening process, but none of them qualified so we have no choice but to hire my drinking buddy from college" will not fly.
Oh, and let's talk about H-1B, OPT and L1 visa bait, as well as PERM bait.
It's already been established that they're not faking resumes. Are there plenty of disgruntled worthless toxic potential employees that put their resume out there to keep their UI benefits? yes.

Not to mention beyond inconsiderate, more like reprehensible, to the candidates to waste their time and money, and drag them in for an interview when they have no chance.
