Indeed is a global job search and hiring platform founded in 2004 by Paul Forster and Rony Kahan. It helps job seekers search openings, research employers, and apply for roles, while helping employers source candidates and manage hiring workflows. Today, Indeed is a subsidiary of Recruit Holdings and operates in over 60 countries.
Because Indeed is a private subsidiary, it doesn’t publish a standard “monthly active users” figure like many consumer apps. The most reliable Indeed “usage” stats are the ones Indeed publishes directly: job seeker profiles, employer counts, and hiring outcomes (hires per minute), plus the scale of its salary data.
Answer box: Indeed reports 635M job seeker profiles worldwide (verified email accounts), 3.3M+ employers using Indeed to hire, and 27 hires per minute (March 2025). Indeed also says its salary product includes 600M+ salaries. Indeed is a Recruit subsidiary after announcing its acquisition by Recruit in 2012.

What these numbers mean
1) Indeed’s “user count” is best measured by profiles and hiring outcomes
Instead of a single MAU number, Indeed highlights the size of its job seeker graph (635M profiles) and a hiring outcome metric (27 hires per minute, measured in March 2025). Together, these help show both reach and marketplace activity.
2) The employer number signals adoption at scale
Indeed’s 3.3M+ employer figure reflects how widely the platform is used across industries and company sizes, from local businesses to global enterprises.
3) Salary data and company research tools expand beyond job search
Indeed’s “600M+ salaries” benchmark shows the platform is also a major destination for pay research—useful for job seekers negotiating offers and employers benchmarking compensation.
