How to Delete Indeed Account 2024

Delete Indeed Account – Indeed is one of the most popular job search engines in the world. It began operations in 2004. This post will show you how to delete or close your Indeed account if you are no longer interested in using it.

There are two ways to delete an Indeed account. You can either close your Indeed account or permanently delete it by deleting your personal data.

The first option is closing your account, and by doing so, you’ll lose access to the following: Assessments, Saved jobs, Job application history, Saved job searches, and Job preferences. However, the second option will delete your Indeed data and close your account. The choice is yours.

Deleting your personal data will also delete your account and any associated information, such as your resume and application history. You will also no longer receive messages sent to an Indeed alias linked to your account.

Additionally, if you would like to delete a job application, you must contact the prospective employer directly. Indeed cannot delete job applications on your behalf.
