Indeed and ClearHire, side by side
A large job board where employers start with a free post and pay to sponsor it on a daily or monthly budget.
Who is better served by which
Better served by Indeed
Choose Indeed if reach is the whole point and a free post that can be sponsored suits your budget.
Better served by ClearHire
Choose ClearHire if you want a filter that shows only companies that answer employment claims, and applications with countersigned roles attached.
What each one charges
Indeed’s prices are copied as its pages print them, with the plan name and the page. Ours come from the same list our pricing page reads.
| Plan | Price | Note | Page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free job post | $0 per post | Account registration is free | indeed.com/hire/pricing (opens in a new tab) |
| Sponsored job | No public price | Quote only: you set a daily or monthly budget and pay when candidates engage | indeed.com/hire/pricing (opens in a new tab) |
ClearHire’s plans
- Free
- No cost. Not a trial, and it does not end.
- Pro
- $9 a month, or $90 a year.
- Team
- $7 a seat a month, or $70 a seat a year. At least 3 seats, so from $210 a year.
How a paid plan is bought today is on the pricing page.
Feature by feature
A row that reads “not stated” means the pages we read did not say. It does not mean no, and we did not guess.
| What | Indeed | ClearHire |
|---|---|---|
| Companies post jobs and people apply | IndeedYesindeed.com/hire/pricing (opens in a new tab) | ClearHireYes |
| Filter to jobs from companies that confirm employment | IndeedNot stated on the pages we checked | ClearHireYes |

| People write about companies in public | IndeedNot stated on the pages we checked | ClearHireYes |
What ClearHire does not do
This list is the same on every page here, and it is true today.
Only resumes leave in six formats
Cover letters copy out as plain text, and a portfolio has no export.
Free exports name us
A resume exported on Free carries one “built with” line. A paid plan removes it.
No career path on your record
The roadmap and skills-gap pages are reading, not a plan we keep for you.
A company’s answer stays private
What a company writes about a person is read by that person and the company’s admins. Nobody else sees it.
