When viewing a job on Indeed, whether on a pane or a separate tab, the application menu fails to load when I click 'Apply Now'. The connection times out after a while. It even takes an awful time to go back (reload) to the page!

When I reported this Indeed Support, they recommended using Google Chrome as their site "tends to work best on it". I can now confirm that the issue does not arise with Chrome.

I have tried pretty much everything on this page: Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can

I even reinstalled Firefox but it is so smart, it realized the fact and prompted me to refresh and now we are back where we left off.

Make sure you are not blocking content.

Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

The problem persists even in Troubleshooting mode. Turned off enhanced tracking protection, disabled hardware acceleration, deleted Firefox preference files; nothing doing!

I also found this thread from a year ago that reports the same issue.

Thank you. Appreciate the prompt response!

I've been visiting this very domain, if you will see my original post! But don't bother, the problem has fixed itself very miraculously, without tweaks or sacrifice. I blame the website- whenever they make any changes, this occurs; they even suffered a serious security breach sometime back.

Thank you again for reaching out!
