Closing an Account

Quick summary

Leaving Indeed? We're sorry to see you go. This page explains how to close your account and what to expect from the process. Do you also want to delete your Indeed data? This page can help you get started.

Two ways to close an account

Option one: From your account settings

Tip: Review your communications settings. Unsubscribe from any unwanted emails and notifications before closing your account.

Getting started

  1. Open your account settings.
  2. Click or tap Close my account. This link is located below your email address.
  3. Complete the optional account closure survey.

What if a link to 'Close my account ' is not available?

You may have an employer account. Contact us so we can close this account for you.

What to expect

By closing your account, you'll lose access to:

  • Saved jobs
  • Job application history
  • Saved job searches
  • Job preferences

Option two: By deleting your data

Getting started

  1. Use the Personal Data Request form.
  2. Learn more about requesting or deleting your data.

What to expect

  • This action will delete your data and close your account.
  • You'll lose access to the features above.
  • If you have a merged account, deleting your Indeed account means you can't use the same login to sign in to Glassdoor.

What if your Indeed and Glassdoor accounts are linked?

  • Closing your Indeed account means you can't use the same login to sign in to Glassdoor.
  • You'll still have a Glassdoor account.
