Section 1: Job Boards

• Post a job 
  

As one of the first branded experiences you will offer your potential hires, it’s in the best interest of your job posting to speak directly to your audience in a consistent voice that resonates with your internal communications.

Having the right keywords in the title of your posting is one of the most important keys to search-engine success. Follow with a compelling introduction to your company’s vision and typical collaboration process. When writing the description use common terms and be transparent about the role’s requirements and any qualifications.

Clearly state the compensation and duration of the project, but keep this brief. 60% of applicants search for jobs on their phones, so it’s best practice to review and revise down your job posting, using short bullet points where functional.

Lastly, consider your hiring demographic’s daily schedule and commute before posting for cues at when best to get their attention. Once the applications start to roll in, respond quickly by using an Applicant Tracking System to stay in touch with applicants through text and email. We share the secrets to Chick-fil-A’s hiring process and how they utilize Workstream to its maximum potential in this webinar on the Workstream Blog.

• Text-to-Apply Signs

These job seekers not only understand digital technology and social media platforms but appreciate the fact that a digital world makes life easier and more flexible.
