Using Job Boards Effectively
Choose the Right Job Board
• Think about where you might find the right candidates.
• Think local - Local job boards are now more popular.
BrightonandHoveJobs.com, carried out some research that
shows that candidates will often research local job boards before
looking at any other form of recruitment!
Get the Best Deal
• What are the latest deals?
• Are you advertising more than one job?
Why not bulk buy to save yourself some money, and
then use the jobs when you need them?
Get the Right Presence
• Stand-out in a crowded market place
• Think FREE branding - Logo’s
• Create an employers profile
• Social media presence
What Candidates Want to Know?
Think about what candidates really want to know:
– What is it like to work for you, – What are the additional perks,
– What is the salary bracket,
– What is the exact location.
Job Title
Think like Google, and create a searchable job title:
- Job Type: Full time, part time, temporary etc
- Job title
- The location (especially for local job boards)
e.g. Full Time Sales Team Leader in Hove
Job Advert as Advertising
• Think of your job advert as advertising
• Candidates will apply directly to you
• It is always worth checking with candidates who come directly to you where they actually saw your advert, so you know that the job board is working for you.
