  I get many emails for job suggestions from Lensa thru Linkedin. Not one of them were for an actual job. 100% of them redirected me to job websites that charge you a fee to see companies that are hiring.

  Hi ****,Thanks for your feedback, and were sorry for the frustration. Lensa never charges users to access job listings, and we do not partner with sites that require payment just to view job opportunities. Some listings may redirect to third-party application platforms, but they should always be clearly labeled.If youve encountered job posts that led to unexpected fees, please forward the details to ******************************** so our team can investigate. Were committed to improving the job search experience and appreciate your help in identifying any issues.

  Lensa is an absolute scam. When an individual uses a job search engine like INDEED they can be redirected to Lensa, instead of the position through which the applicant thought they were applying. From there, Lensa will spam your email daily, with fake head hunters.They have an A+ BBB rating merely because to have a high rating all a company must do is respond to the complaint showing resolution.BBB, please do a more specific inquest into Lensa, this company is fraudulent, invasive and operates without ethics or regard for people simply looking for work

  Fake,ghost jobs. Now they are spamming LinkedIn and ruining that. They also seem to own a lot of other sites that just point back to them and their fake jobs. They are ruining the job search industry!

  I am sorry to tell you, but i am not the only one who thinks so: ********************************************************************************** ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ internet is FULL of very negative reviews regarding Lensa. From fake, outdated job posts to spamming, being unable to unsubscribe, etc. I might be just one person, one opinion, but the Internet has weighed in, and Lensa is definitely a rotten apple in the job **** universe.

  Instead of a one-star review can I leave a half-moon? I signed up for several jobs and not only did I not get the job I didn't get a letter stating that I didn't get the job all I got was more job recommendations and not one so called job for up to 750 a week as was noted. I do understand that some are these are survey sites and a link to send you to another so-called job matching site. No actual jobs available nor any communication when you do fill out an application.

  Hi Delarrick,Thank you for sharing your feedback - were sorry to hear that your experience has been frustrating. We understand how discouraging it can feel when you're actively applying but not receiving responses or ********** clarify, Lensa is a job board, meaning we connect job seekers with opportunities listed by third-party employers and hiring platforms. We do not manage the application process, make hiring decisions, or send out follow-up communication on behalf of employers. Once you apply to a job, the next steps are entirely handled by the employer or the site hosting the application.That said, we take concerns about misleading listings seriously. If you come across a posting that seems suspicious or unclear - especially those that redirect to surveys or unrelated sites -please let us know at ******************************** so we can investigate and ensure job seekers are seeing real, relevant opportunities.We appreciate your time and hope your next opportunity is just around the corner.

  Spam, Scam, and everything else under the sun. Lensa forces you to take a questionnaire and if you don't sign up for their "premium" services, they just have you take the quesionnaire all over again until you do. If you get to a job you want to apply for, they redirect you to another platform called "jobleads" where they do the same scam to get you to pay for ANOTHER premium service(s). All the while, I start getting nonstop spam in my email for jobs that aren't even relevant; nor can I apply to these jobs due to the "premium" services pop-****

  As others have said, it's a scam and only there to mine your information and sell it. The positive reviews on here are clearly bots. Don't fall for it.

  Lensa intentionally edits the job postings that they email to get more people clicking through their site, while redirecting you to other sites that grab your personal information. I have several screenshots and emails where the postings that Lensa has sent me as "recommended" once actually on the employer's site, can clearly been seen where data such as Location, On-site/remote, or requirements listed in the posting had been removed. Lensa is doing this deceptively, knowing that many of its users are desperately looking for work.

  After clicking "apply" on ******** you are brought to a site that immediately asks you for your email, resume, what you value in a professional environment etc. It looks like you are applying for the job you clicked apply for.However, you're actually feeding your information into LENSA, a third party tool for finding jobs. After entering all of your information, you then see the "apply" button for the job you wanted. Annoying - but not terrible.However, in the two hours since I did this, I have gotten three spam calls asking about my interest in pursuing higher education (something I indicated when I thought I was applying for a job). Unacceptable.After opting out per an email I received after complaining, I STILL got emails from them. I had to block the email address to finally get them to stop. I am also still getting a spam call or two every other day.LENSA is not actually interested in helping you find a job, they just want your information so they can sell it. They will reply with the same canned reply and they won't ever mean it. Anyone who works for this company is a coward and turns a blind eye to its obviously questionable practices. Just ****** "LENSA reviews" and you'll find hundreds of similar reviews (alongside the ones on this page). They know they are scamming, they just don't care.

  ***** scams you and blows you up with spam calls. They trick you into thinking youre applying for a job and then they just sign you up for a bunch of spam calls. Shady. And really crummy to do to people who are looking for work. Ive received 13 calls from 9:03am to 11:42am today alone.
