How Do I Close My Indeed Account?
As a job seeker, you can close your account by signing in to your Account page.
Click the Close My Account link.
You will see a confirmation window. If you are certain that you would like to proceed, click on Close my account. Please note that this is an irreversible action and cannot be undone.
Instead of closing your account, you have the option to pause your alerts. You can also set your resume to private so that your information is not searchable on Indeed.
If you wish to use Indeed again after closing your account, you can create a new account using the same or any other email address, however, you will not have access to any of your original information.
If you do not see the option to close your account, submit a request to our support team for further assistance.
