Indeed’s Public Sector Talent Hub

In today’s dynamic job market, public sector employers have a greater need than ever to compete with the private sector for top talent. Indeed significantly enhances your talent search and candidate engagement initiatives, allowing our customers to find and hire the right candidates more efficiently. This is especially crucial when considering the challenges of public sector recruitment and government hiring.

Indeed’s branding and advertising solutions offer hiring insights specifically curated for the public sector, helping you show up in the right places to attract quality talent. For those focused on federal hiring or local government recruitment, our tools provide targeted solutions.

Streamlined Procurement, Tailored Solutions

In order to better serve the unique requirements of this important sector, Indeed has created a Public Sector practice. You can now purchase Indeed products and capabilities through a wide array of procurement and contracting solutions designed for federal, state, local, and education public sector clients. In most cases, you have the ability to purchase Indeed through direct awards, IDIQ’s, and cooperative purchasing agreements from the same companies that hold your software licensing agreements – the Technology Reseller’s. This simplifies the process, whether you are looking to post government jobs or manage federal government recruitment.
