About Changes to Your Smart Sourcing Subscription

Indeed is updating our Smart Sourcing subscription options to provide you with more powerful recruiting tools.

This article explains what's changing, your options and important dates you need to know.

Effective 11 January 2027:

• Professional Local Smart Sourcing subscriptions will no longer be available
