Hi there! I understand that you're seeing jobs that don't seem relevant to what you're looking for in the Indeed Job Search app on your iPhone with iOS 18.7. Let’s see if we can get your searches more on target.

To start, could you tell me a bit more about how you're searching for jobs? For instance, what keywords are you using, and are you applying filters like location, job type, or experience level? Also, have you set up any job search preferences or saved searches within the app?

Meanwhile, here are some steps to refine your job search results and increase relevance:

1. Check Your Search Filters and Keywords
Often, indeed uses keyword-based matching, so using clear and specific keywords relevant to your desired position helps. Also, use filters like location, job type (full-time, part-time), salary range, or experience level available under the search bar to narrow down results.

2. Update Your Job Search Preferences
Within the app, you can add or edit your job search preferences which guide the app in showing you better matches based on your qualifications and desired roles. Go to your profile or settings and review these preferences.

3. Use the "Easily Apply" Filter
On the mobile app, toggling on "Easily apply" filters jobs that allow you to apply directly through Indeed, which can sometimes improve the quality and relevance of listings you see.

4. Clear Cache or Reinstall the App
Sometimes, app glitches cause unusual behaviors. Try closing the app, restarting your iPhone, or uninstalling and reinstalling Indeed to make sure the app is working as expected.

5. Review Your Resume/Profile
If you've uploaded a resume or completed a profile on Indeed, ensure it is up to date, clearly states your skills and interests, and matches what you are searching for, as this can influence job recommendations.

If after this you’re still facing irrelevant job results, it might help me to know if you’re searching for jobs in very broad categories or if the issue is consistent even with very targeted searches.

Would you like me to walk you through adjusting your search filters or preferences step-by-step? Or is there a particular type of job or location you're focusing on?
