1. What is the Indeed Job Posting Cost Calculator?

The Indeed Job Posting Cost Calculator helps employers estimate the total cost of posting a job on Indeed, considering both the base fee and promoted/sponsored fees over the duration of the posting.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the Indeed cost formula:

Where:

• \( Base\ Fee \) — Fixed cost to post the job
• \( Promoted\ Fee \) — Daily cost to promote/sponsor the job
• \( Duration \) — Number of days the job will be promoted

Explanation: The total cost consists of a one-time base fee plus the promoted fee multiplied by the number of days you want your job to be featured.

3. Importance of Cost Calculation

Details: Accurate cost estimation helps with budgeting for recruitment efforts and comparing different job posting options to maximize ROI.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the base fee in your local currency, the daily promoted fee, and the duration in days. All values must be valid (fees ≥ 0, duration ≥ 1 day).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What's included in the base fee?
A: The base fee typically covers the basic job posting without promotion. This makes your job visible in organic search results.

Q2: How is the promoted fee calculated?
A: The promoted fee varies based on job category, location, and competition. Indeed often charges per day or per click.

Q3: Can I change the duration after posting?
A: Yes, you can usually extend or shorten the promotion period, which will adjust your total cost accordingly.

Q4: Are there discounts for multiple job postings?
A: Indeed may offer volume discounts for employers posting multiple jobs. Check with Indeed's sales team for current offers.

Q5: What currency should I use?
A: Use your local currency or the currency Indeed charges you in. The calculator doesn't perform currency conversions.
