Attracting the Right People

When looking for job applicants, you shouldn’t have to choose between quantity and quality. Not getting enough applicants? Not getting quality applicants? You may want to assess the way you promote your job postings. BBB, in partnership with Indeed, has provided a $200 Sponsored Job credit* you can use to promote your job postings. Through this partnership, Indeed has provided tips on how to attract the candidates you want. This is the perfect opportunity to see if the service is right for you.

Post on Indeed. If you’re like most businesses, you use third-party websites to post about job openings. However, not all platforms are created equal. Indeed delivers four times more hires than all other job sites combined.**  With so many people searching Indeed for their next career move, why wouldn’t you utilize it?

Budget for hiring. While sites like Indeed allow you to post for free, you may want to consider throwing some money behind your job post. Tens of thousands of new jobs are posted on Indeed each day, so your post can get lost in the fray. Promoting your post can give it more exposure.

You could get hundreds of responses to your job posting, but they would mean nothing if they didn't come from quality job candidates. Make sure you've got a good job description to help inform your job posting and be on your way to finding the candidates you are looking for.
