Indeed.com


Indeed.com is a job search engine. It was launched in November 2004 as a "search engine for jobs - with a radically different approach to job search."

Indeed gives job seekers free access to millions of employment opportunities from thousands of websites. The website offers job search functionality as a vertical search site by aggregating job listings from thousands of websites including major job boards, newspapers, associations and company career pages.

Indeed was co-founded by Paul Forster and Rony Kahan." The company is privately held with investment from The New York Times Company, Allen & Company and Union Square Ventures.

In 2005, Indeed launched their beta version of what they refer to as "pay-per-click job advertising network". In addition to searching job postings, it also allows the occurrence of words therein to be plotted over time, ostensibly as an indicator of trends in the job market .

There are also Indian, UK and Canadian versions of the website.
