    Since creating an account with ********************** I have received at least ten spam calls a day. Even after deleting my account the calls have persisted.

    Were really sorry to hear this. Lensa doesnt sell personal data or share it without your explicit consent, so there shouldnt be spam calls happening at all. We take privacy seriously, and your experience is alarming. Wed like to get to the bottom of it. Please reach out to our support team at ******************************** so we can review your account activity and investigate further.

    I signed up to recieve job posting then I immediately started receiving India scam calls for ******** swabs. I hope you get sued for selling data to scammers.

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. What you described is really concerning. Lensa doesnt sell or share job seekers personal data without explicit consent, and only works with vetted, trusted partners. Wed like to better understand what happened and investigate Lensas part in your experience. Please reach out to us at ******************************** so our team can look into it directly.

    Company spams job boards with duplicate entries adding zero value to the world.

    Lensa, Inc

    Date: 06/19/2025

    We hear your concern and are genuinely sorry youve had this impression. Lensas goal is to make job searching easier by pulling in listings from a wide range of sources. That said, we know duplicates can be frustrating, and were actively working on improving how we filter and display results. If there are specific examples youd like to flag, wed appreciate it. Feel free to contact us at *********************************

    Complete garbage site. If I could leave a no star review, I would. This site is an absolute scam, you see in their response to applicants here, they don't even use correct grammar. They used the word were in place of we're, big red flag. Please Lensa no response needed as I see all your responses are the same to each problem smh times are hard enough

    Data mining scheme disguised as a job search board. Will ******* your email with emails even after unsubscribing.

    Lensa, Inc

    Date: 06/17/2025

    Thanks for sharing your feedback. Just to clarify, Lensa doesnt sell or share your personal data with other organizations. As for the emails, once you unsubscribe, it can take up to 48 hours for the emails to stop completely, since some are queued in advance. If youre still receiving messages after that time, please contact our support team at ******************************** so we can look into it and make sure your preferences are fully honored.Lensas mission is to support job seekers by making it easier to explore relevant opportunities through smart job-matching tools and alerts. Were not a recruiter or employer, and we dont gate listings behind paid access. Our goal is to help you navigate the job market more efficiently, not to overwhelm or mislead.

    I signed up with Lensa and they sent me an e-mail with potential jobs. I clicked on one and it took me to listings on **************************. I clicked view job and a pop-up for "The Big Job Site" appeared. The first thing it tried to do was sell me a resume review. Once I refused that and answered the other questions, I had a choice of "premium" or "basic" membership. I chose basic (the free option). The job description then appeared. Off to the side were other listings that stated "premium only." I clicked one, out of curiosity, and the job description was blurred. You had to pay to see the listing. Don't waste your time hopping through the hoops, Lensa is just a company preying on unemployed and probably desperate people.

    Thanks for sharing your experience. Were really sorry it felt like a runaround. Lensa itself doesnt charge job seekers or block listings behind a paywall, but we do partner with third-party sites, and it sounds like you may have been redirected to one of them. That said, we take concerns like this seriously and want to ensure you see real, accessible opportunities. If youre open to it, please get in touch with our support team at ******************************** so we can look into exactly what happened and improve how we guide job seekers.

    Absolute scam. I clicked through a job listing on ******** that lead me to the Lensa site. I signed up and created a profile. That was a few days ago and ever since, my inbox has been hammered with garbage email not only from Lensa but (at least) a dozen other job and recruitment mailing lists that are full of the most irrelevant junk completely unrelated to the job I had initially tried to apply for.I implore anyone that will listen to stay as far away from Lensa as possible - I'm confident that they play fast and loose with personal information and are selling it off to whoever will pay.

    Hi ****, we're really sorry to hear about your experience. We want to clarify that personal information is only shared when a user actively applies to a job or opts into being contacted. That said, we understand how frustrating it can be to receive irrelevant or excessive messages, especially when expectations aren't met.Some job listings - especially those from third-party partners - can lead to external sites or mailing lists, and we take reports like yours very seriously. If youd be willing to share more details, wed appreciate the chance to investigate and help. You can contact us at ********************************* reply to any Lensa email, or use the contact form on our website.Thank you for your feedback. It helps us improve and protect the experience for all job seekers.

    You won't be able to apply for any actual jobs with lensa, but if you enjoy filling out forms and giving away your info, have at it.

    Date: 06/11/2025

    Hi ****, were sorry for any confusion or frustration. While Lensa helps match users with job opportunities, were not the employer and dont make hiring decisions. You can always view jobs without registering, and submitting your information is only necessary when you choose to engage with a job or request alerts.If you experienced issues or ran into misleading listings, wed really like to look into it. Please feel free to reach out at ******************************** or through our websites contact form so we can assist you directly.Were here to help make job searching easier and safer.

    Self imposed middleman for postings, some are legit/active postings, some are old and no longer available on the hiring site/company. Acts as a service, but unsure what happens with personal data. I'll go to the company's site to apply. Unsubscribed but somehow when I clicked on a posting on LinkedIn, it said welcome back. Finding a job is hard enough sometimes but this Lensa is not doing anyone favors but for themselves.

    Thanks for sharing your experience. We understand how important it is for job seekers to feel in control of their search and data. We never share your personal information with third parties unless youve explicitly agreed to it. Were working to improve how we flag outdated postings and make the process more transparent.Regarding the welcome back message - we are partnered with ********, and that message simply indicates that youd previously visited our site and were subscribed to Lensa job alerts. That said, wed still like to look into this further. Feel free to reply to any of our emails or contact us at *********************************

    Opted out of data sharing and unsubscribed to alerts and have still received REPEATED phone calls. 10 in the last hour alone, all from different numbers. This started the minute after I gave them my phone number.

    Hi ******, we're very sorry to hear this. Lensa does not sell or share personal information unless a user actively applies to a job or requests contact. If you opted out and are still receiving calls, its possible the number was shared during a direct interaction with a third-party listing.We take these concerns seriously and would like to investigate further. Please contact us at ********************************* reply to any Lensa email, or use the contact form on our website so we can help resolve this.We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
