5 Things Candidates Want to See in Your Job Ad 💼✨ In the competitive job market, attracting top talent requires more than just listing job requirements. Here are five key elements candidates look for in a job ad that can help you stand out and attract the best applicants: 1. Clear and Concise Job Title 🏷️ A clear and specific job title helps candidates understand the role immediately. Avoid using jargon or overly creative titles that might confuse potential applicants. A straightforward title makes your job ad more discoverable and appealing. 2. Detailed Job Description 📝 Candidates want to know what they’ll be doing day-to-day. Provide a detailed description of the role’s responsibilities, expected outcomes, and how the position fits into the larger organization. This clarity helps candidates assess if they’re a good fit for the job. 3. Competitive Salary and Benefits 💰🎁 Transparency about compensation can attract more qualified candidates. Include salary ranges and highlight unique benefits your company offers, such as remote work options, health benefits, and professional development opportunities. This shows that you value and invest in your employees. 4. Company Culture and Values 🌟🏢 Candidates are increasingly interested in the culture and values of the companies they apply to. Share insights into your company’s mission, work environment, and values. Include testimonials from current employees or links to your social media pages to give candidates a glimpse of your workplace culture. 5. Growth Opportunities 🚀📈 Top candidates are looking for roles where they can grow and advance. Mention opportunities for career development, training programs, and potential career paths within your organization. This can make your job ad more attractive to ambitious and motivated candidates. By including these elements in your job ad, you'll not only attract more applicants but also find candidates who are genuinely interested in what your company has to offer. #HiringManagers #JobAdverts

After spending years in the recruitment game, I've learned a big lesson: keeping job adverts real makes all the difference. You know those job ads we see everywhere? They all kind of sound the same: 🕒 "Urgently hiring (for yesterday)" 👴 "Need 50 years of experience" 📚 "Must know everything" 💰 Attractive Salary & Benefits But here's the thing – those attractive salaries and advantages they promise? Not always so attractive in reality. Sadly, lots of companies haven't caught on yet. Even the ones with cool cultures struggle to find top talent. But here's the real deal: the most important thing for any company is its people. Without taking care of employees, projects can go downhill fast. See, lots of companies think just posting a job ad will bring in loads of awesome candidates. But times have changed. ❌ It's like trying to plant seeds when you're already starving. 🌱 Job seekers have lots of options now, and they're picky about where they work. I call it: "job offer paralysis" – they're scared to commit in case something better comes along. So, if you want to stand out in today's job market, humanize your job ads. And remember, it's not just about the job – companies should also work on creating a killer company culture that resonates with job seekers and fosters a sense of belonging, growth, and fulfillment. This means prioritizing employee well-being, fostering open communication, and providing opportunities for personal and professional development. After all, a strong company culture not only attracts top talent but also ensures long-term employee satisfaction and retention. ✅ #BetterRecruitment #hr

Spent a load of cash on your employer brand but can’t unicorn-vince the right candidates to apply? It’s probably because your job ads were an afterthought. It’s a common myth-take. But when those ads are the first thing a candidate sees before they even think about checking out your careers site or vacancies, they won’t be galloping to apply if they’re a bit unextra-Corden-ary. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– https://lnkd.in/e-jj5Bt #CopywritingForRecruiters #JobAdvertising #RecruitmentMarketing

I used to think the Job Description and the Job Ad were the same 🥸 You keep the Job Desc for internal purposes, and you post the Job Ad on the Job Board. Right? 🤔 Well, I've been refining this thinking 💫 Why? Because exactly as stated, the Job Desc is for internal purposes, and the Job Ad is meant for the outside world. ➡️The Job Desc can be exhaustive, administrative, describe the skills of the candidate, the expected routine deliverables, the interactions the person will have (...and be boring?) ➡️ The Job Ad is an Ad, as in advertisement, as in ... 🔥MAKE IT SEXY! 🔥 How to do that? It's an Ad, so ➡️ the message should be clear: who are you hiring? Tell us what experience they should have, what projects they've worked on (and not just "5+ years of experience" 🙊 ) ➡️it's OK if it drives away some candidates: you only want it to attract qualified candidates, not anyone looking for a job. Add a "This job is not for you if ..." section ➡️it should make your company look attractive: add a link to your career page, to testimonies of your employees, give candidates material to know about & love your company ➡️Give the candidate some biscuits: show what perks working for your organization bring! (seniority payments aren't a perk, they're mandated by law 🙃) #HR #Recruitment #Consulting #Cambodia ------------------------------- Hi 👋 I’m Clement, passionate about recruitment & HR topics.

In June, #LinkedIn reported that its research shows paid job postings on its site get nearly THREE times more views and more than TWICE as many applications when they mention well-being, flexibility, or culture. "What’s more, your company culture shouldn’t displace other critical information from your job post, like the day-to-day responsibilities and salary range,” the LinkedIn blog post on the research says. Want more candidates--Post/share the salary range, offer flexibility, and set clear expectations of the role. This is a tough market for job seekers- keep your head up and keep pushing forward.

Here’s 6 things that limit the effectiveness of your job ads: I see the same pattern of interest/application rates on most job ads I view. And I look at a lot. The trend is often feast or famine. And in both scenarios a large majority of applicants, may not even be fully qualified. If you are posting job ads, you have the power to influence this. ⤵ To ensure the right people apply, avoid as many of these as possible. 1) Company ego. Instead think “what’s in it for me?” for the person applying. 2) Presenting legal requirements as the only employee benefits. 3) No detail about your hiring process & timeline. 4) A shopping list of requirements. 5) Not being specific enough. 6) No salary. Refine these to get the respond you need and avoid tumbleweed or tsunami! ▶ Need help nailing this down?

At Altis Recruitment - Our knowledge is your knowledge! Apparently, it takes less than a minute for a job seeker to decide if they are going to apply to a job. Yikes - no pressure! Natasha shares some tips on how to stand out against the 100's of other job ads that you compete daily on for clicks and views. Make your ad count!
How can you compete for great talent in a crowded labour market? It starts with a stellar job ad—an essential tool that can help you attract the most qualified candidates for the role and showcase why your organization is a great place to work. The best job ads are concise yet juicy enough to captivate jobseekers at first glance. So, what does it take to write one? Beyond the basics—like keeping it between 300-700 words—I coach clients to keep these three things in mind: 1. Put yourself in the candidate’s shoes. Ask yourself, if I was searching for this role what title would I search for? To help candidates find your ad, use the most common title that applies to what the person will actually be doing. 2. Don’t forget about soft skills. Think beyond technical skills to the human qualities—like time management, communication and relationship-building—that will help a candidate be successful in this role and in your workplace. 3. Tell candidates what’s in it for them. Perks and benefits sweeten the deal for top talent who are considering joining your organization. Be sure to highlight your total rewards package and the unique perks and benefits that set your workplace apart (e.g., flexible work arrangements, pet-friendly offices, wellness programs, or free snacks). You’ll also want to be clear about the responsibilities of the role, remove barriers to reach diverse candidates and toot your own horn—tell them what makes your workplace special. Head to the Altis Recruitment blog for more tips on writing compelling job ads that lead to great talent matches: https://lnkd.in/gcaQ67a2. #jobposting #jobad Kathryn Tremblay (She/Her)

Branded Resumes ꟾ Personal, 1-on-1 Service ꟾ Focus: Educators / Trainers / HR / Non-Profit & Career Change ꟾ Get Clear. Get Confident. Get the Job. Employee Advocate & fan of B-corps & CSR
While sure, you want to make sure you are *valuable* at work, I do think this post is true. As an #employeeadvocate, I help job seekers find jobs with employers that support your whole life, and the fact that you have *multiple* priorities - work being just one, and not the top of the short list. These are employers that *value* their employees as their MOST important asset. While you are replaceable, because you have to be, they WANT to attract - and retain - the best employees, and they do this, in part, by respecting them, and *showing* their value workers through how they operate the business and treat staff. Job seach, especially for the best employers, is competitive. Being clear about and confident in your core skills, qualities, qualifications and value, and, knowing how to communicate these as your "brand" is KEY to standing out amongst your competition. Do you know how to do this across your job search "tool kit" (resume, cover letter, LI profile and interview answers) consistently? I can help. Love to help YOU "Get Clear, Get Confident .. and Get the JOB!" Reach out anytime!
