This article is a bit of a departure, as I usually speak directly to job seekers- today, I am going to be speaking to recruiters! That doesn’t mean to stop reading if you aren’t a recruiter- there’s value in knowing how recruiters approach their hiring strategy as well!
Need a fresh idea for your recruiting strategy for Accountant Jobs? Niche job boards could give you that edge you’re looking for!
Finding a job on the Internet, while mechanically easier than a good old fashioned “pound-the-pavement” search, still isn’t any less stressful. If you’ve been on one of the huge national job boards recently, you’ll be aware that it’s tough to find that needle in the haystack. You’re probably also aware of the numerous job boards popping up on the web every single day- even hour-to-hour! It can be a struggle to validate your recruiting practices, and with that in mind I present the strategy of the niche job board posting!
The first thing you’ll want to do when you decide to use niche boards is to make sure that they have some kind of tracking in place. If you don’t know where resumes are coming in from, you can’t determine the ROI for each of those sites. Using tracking gives you an idea of where to put your jobs to get the most possible bang for your buck when trying to find people for Accounting Jobs.
There are many ways to better present your company to qualified job seekers. For starters, going to where your ideal candidates are on the web shows them that you are not taking the easy way out by only using the quantity providers many employers default to. Discovering more about job seekers you feel are qualified lets them know you are serious about filling the position with someone who will excel. And you know best, a key part of selling (products, your company, whatever it may be) is making the “buyer” feel wanted and cared about.
Still not convinced that you need to post on niche job boards? Here are a few reasons to consider:
4. Niche job boards narrow the number of jobs seekers have to look through to find that diamond in the rough you posted. The more generic job boards require clever searching to eliminate jobs that aren’t in the seeker’s area, industry or professional level. With fewer jobs listed, it’s easier for job seekers to find your job, even on the 15th day of posting.
5. Resume mining on niche job boards is less of a hassle than big boards. Although the quantity is lower, the quality level of the seekers is much higher making it more likely that you’ll find a great candidate.
6. If you’re thinking in terms of budget, hint hint…a vast majority of smaller, niche job sites charge a very minimal posting fee, if they charge at all.
Now, go off and find which niche job boards your hard-to-fill positions should be listed on. There are many associations out there pertaining to the specific field or general industry of your highly targeted open positions, keep an eye out for those boards ending in jobs.com. Find those that you feel represent your ideal candidate or speak with a job distribution firm such as for advice and direction. Good luck and happy recruiting for Actuarial Jobs!
