Lockdown has created a plethora of candidates looking for new positions. But with a lot of companies using this time to restructure and create new jobs, it’s more important than ever to make your recruitment drive a success.

With over 120,000 adverts placed in August so far, we spoke to Karen Eyke of Recruit123 who gave us 5 tips to make sure you get a flood of applications!

Karen’s Top Tips

• Make sure you use a clear job title, nothing fancy or made up – say exactly what the role is!

• Include a salary within the body of the advert, or at least a salary range – not adding the salary can put candidates off applying.

• Include a postcode or at least the location when you post a job advert for where the role is based.

• Clearly note the essential skills required for the role you are recruiting for, and duties they are expected to do.

• 5. Keep it friendly! You want the person reading it to feel that your company will be a good place for them to work at.

By following these simple steps, you can start attracting the right candidates for you to help drive your business forward.
