Fake. Click bait. Urgently hiring for a restaurant that closed many years ago.

Scott, thank you for this comment. Is it possible for you to send us a link or photo of this job posting? It would help us to remove expired jobs on our site. Thank you!

Do not go anywhere near this website! Since signing up I have been inundated with emails from the USA, they have clearly given my email address to all and sundry. I have asked on numerous occasions to unsubscribe and yet am still getting emails. Awful.

Hi Susan, our alerts service aims to keep job seekers like you updated and informed about job vacancies that might be a good fit for you. Please reach out to us at [email protected] if you are having issues with the unsubscription process, as we´d be happy to review your case.

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.

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 [email protected]. We will proceed to take action to prevent this from happen to other people. All our best wishes, Talent team.

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!

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.
Response from Talent.comSep 2, 2022
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 [email protected], 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!

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.

Our algorithm sometimes takes a while to sort through poor-quality or expired posts, but we appreciate your feedback nonetheless.
