Same job even with same agency listed numerous times. Would be great to sort search results by, closest to you, best match, salary... Currently search results return lots of jobs where salary is not stated even though they would not fall into your salary range input. Would be much better if the salary was just hidden to the user, but functionality still used this data when searching.

Great that you can filter your search by salary - an advantage over other 'top' job search apps. However my email notifications are not following my job search settings...I am getting sent 100s of jobs that are not in the location I've specified. Which makes it go back to being as useless as other apps that send jobs to your location, but for all salaries! Maybe one day I'll find an app that can do both plus keyword search!

Some nice touches but not yet the Bees knees! Too many jobs get posted numerous times, leading to either wasting time trying to apply more than once for the same job or for jobs being advertised after their close date. I've yet to find a job through the site. Many of the adverts have been placed by other Temping Agencies, so I've tended to go to their sites where possible. I didn't even get a response from the one application I have submitted through Reed, for a Reed open-day!

I am experiencing problems with the new updated version of this app. Every time I search for jobs it states "Couldn't load jobs - There was an error loading your search results - Try Again" When I try again it states the same thing. Please bring back the older version of this app. It was easy to use and looked professional. I honestly rely on the Reed app. The new updated version doesn't meet my expectations of the purpose of this app.

Tried this lot to find a job but as soon as I registered with details like mobile number, email, etc I got bombarded spam and dodgy phone calls. Also one of the Reed staff wanted a copy of my passport to place on file to make the recruitment process faster, huh?! Wt..! Your employer does this process once you start. So beware of who calls you up asking you for documents even if it is an email from a Reed member of staff.

The user interface is so buggy, the swiping doesn't work and upon first swipe in the wrong direction, I tried to remove it from my shortlisted section and no matter how many times I pressed the red trash can it would not go away unless i relaunched the app. Not only that, it does not filter by location despite asking for my location, you might as well use the ACTUALLY functioning webpage. The experience was so bad I cannot keep this app anymore and does not allow to delete my account.

As limiting the search using keywords wasn't showing all the jobs in my sector, I didn't limit it - all jobs in a given radius, please. This means checking daily, but sorting through 40 or so jobs a day would be no problem, right? Today, 344 jobs, many way outside my area, and which keep coming back when deleted. Went into list mode, and not one is suitable.

Guess it does the job, but if you are looking for a new job... Make sure you have a vehicle cos the best bets are gonna be over 20miles away even when you set the filter for something more local. It has even a selection of filters to find a particular job, accounts, Mechanic ect you'll still get job ads for Supervisors, nurses care assistants and so fourth. It's a shame I would have used this more seeing how easy it is to navigate, but sadly it isn't working as expected

Stack mode makes this a little like Tinder for job searching. Left and right swipe does make make it easier to save and dismiss though. Unfortunately there are issues with it reguarly showing irrelevant jobs in the search. This may not be entirely the apps fault, as job posters may be saturating their ads with key words to improve hits - but I will blame Reed for it. There are also regular notifications saying there are new jobs posted, and when you open the app theres nothing new.

Terrible app - a waste of time. It advertises thousands of jobs - but the vast majority of them are duplicates. For example I had to scroll through hundreds of postings for bike courier roles - which were all being advertised by the same company. There were countless examples of this and various other "tricks" to bolster the jobs on offer - many of which, having looked closer were not offering meaningful employment. In the end I just gave up.

Unfortunately the app is terrible, if you search for anything for example, like retail, or regional management in the same sector, Your results come back as registered nurses, builders, electrician, the list goes on, it's anything but what you require, if you try to be more specific, it gets worse. Shame really as Reed used to be on the mark for jobs.

Useful, to keep applying when out and about. Could do with an IR35 inside/outside filter.

First search for photographer jobs: 6 results, 5 had nothing to do with photography, maybe the word "photographer" was written somewhere but there are no options like "show word on title" or something like that. A waste of time, I've seen many websites that do that and it's highly annoying. I'll stick to Indeed app.

Good App. I noticed a few bugs while making a CV, especially in the qualifications part, the main one being that in the "others" section of the qualifications, if you delete a subject you can save what youve written, but the only way to get the subject fill-in back is by leaving and going back in. Other than that easy to use, the tinder formst is a neat idea.

Like alot of other job seeking apps, seems good,but tbf, the whole job industry is a complete and utter shambles, easily proveable, and since cyber criminals exist, and uk defense is not even close to being mentally responsible, these little experiences of life useing job apps, are very interesting, but hey whis cares, who gives a xxxx, oh they can all pay lip service, thats sure, perhaps they should make it mandatory to have smart glasses recording, under new legislation.
