Glassdoor 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

glassdoor.com Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on Glassdoor to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Glassdoor asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

A hijacked Glassdoor account can be used to impersonate you and scam your contacts, so 2FA matters. Besides an authenticator app, Glassdoor also offers SMS text codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods Glassdoor supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  • SMS text message
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan Glassdoor's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to Glassdoor and open your Glassdoor account security settings.

  3. 3

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

    Open Authenticator App - Novaz, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Glassdoor displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your Glassdoor account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If Glassdoor shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how Glassdoor recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

How to recover your Glassdoor account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Glassdoor gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Glassdoor doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Glassdoor's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
