Recruiting is never easy. Not only can it take lots of time, but it can also be costly too. The last thing you will want is to find at the end of all the effort that you haven’t found the right person for the role.

The first thing that you need to get right is to advertise your job in the right way.

Here at Talent Finder we are experts in all things recruitment advertising. We understand what it takes to properly advertise a position that you have. So, with this in mind we have put together our guide to advertising your job.

Try the local newspaper

It may sound like the simplest thing to do, but sometimes the classified section of your local newspaper is a great place to advertise a local job for those in the area. Whilst it may only be able to target a local area and offer limited space it is usually enough to give some basic features of the job and give you a cost effective option.

An online job board

When it comes to online job boards there are a vast amount of different options open to you. These are the most visited for those who are looking for a job and can have an incredibly wide reach. They also offer up plenty of space for you to summarise more information about the role that you are advertising, which means that those who apply for the job will understand more about what will be expected of them.

Social media

Another online tool that you will have at your disposal is social media. Whilst an online job board is going to have a pretty awesome reach, to really get your job out there, you might need to get it onto social media. Social media is not only simple to use, not to mention low cost, but it also has a huge reach too.

People can share the post and even tag those people who they may feel that it matches. It also makes it easy for those prospective employees to contact you should they want to find more about the role and how to apply.

As you can see there are a variety of ways that you can try to advertise your role. The first thing to do is to write your job description and ensure that this covers all the basics of the position including the key roles, key experience and of course the salary too! This should be everything that people who want to apply need to know.
