Fake Aaplication
I have over 15 years of experience and have been using this application since I downloaded it four years ago, and it’s the most ridiculously fake application I’ve ever come across.
★★★★ DrJohnMcMillen 10/6/2024 v6.46.0
Poor search results
Search results are highly inaccurate. If you search for a particular job it will pull jobs that aren’t remotely related. It’s frustrating and time consuming to use Seek.

Used to be good
Now 8 out of 10 times when I try to search, I get an error "Houston we have a problem". I can't fathom how an app can get worse with updates. Seriously, don't you have a robust QA and testing process in place?
★★★★ Sam, Therefore, I am 2/19/2014 v1.3
Waste of time
Don't even waste your space or time on it if you live anywhere but Australia/New Zealand.
★★★★ richardlvargas 1/29/2014 v1.3
Not for US residents
It wasn't until I registered for the app did I realize this app is only for Australians or New Zealanders. Even then, it's a dead zone.
★★★★ Honest Angie 6/11/2012 v1.0.2
👎👎
Two thumbs down. The app looks pretty but when you download it you realize all it is is pretty. Right when I downloaded the app the location option were ridiculous and helpless. I deleted the app within 4 min. I do not recommend this app don't waste Ur time.
★★★★★ Somonea 2/17/2025 v6.66.0
Waste of time
I got none of the job interviews or results from my application. Such a disappointing experience. As an Asian in Wellington now, I don’t recommend this App or any job website. They don’t accept anyone unless you have a someone internal know you.
