Nowadays it’s not easy for job seekers to find a job. The same goes for employers. Many try to find perfect candidates for their business but, unfortunately, some don’t know where to begin. But living in the 21st century makes the recruitment process a piece of cake. One can find professionals from every sphere: marketing, business, medicine, linguistics, law, design, and many more. To find candidates for your business, go where professionals actively seeking work or open to offers are listed.
These 7 websites will give you what you need.
Founded about two decades ago, LinkedIn now has millions of people searching for jobs every week. The platform allows employers to post job offers and wait for responses from candidates. As you can imagine, it offers a significant database of potential hires. You can search for the candidates you desire, place one or more ads to attract the right people, or both.
Connecting people is Linkedin’s strong suit. One of its most useful features is how it allows you to go through your personal and professional network to connect with others. Through this introduction system, you can reach out to people in a more personable way. It also makes it more likely that contacts are verified, reputable professionals; members are frequently invited to vouch for the authenticity and abilities of those in their network.
Spending money on a professional account will facilitate the process of searching and connecting with potential employees.
Leadar
Leadar is a recruitment intelligence platform that allows employers to search through millions of contacts. It’s very useful for hiring because this B2B database consists of 10 million businesses, 120 million phone numbers, and 150 million verified emails all over the US.
Of course, a massive database is nothing without powerful search functions to help you navigate it. Leadar’s AI interprets your searches to deliver results you can act on. You can search for people by name if you know who you are interested in or by job title, location, education, social media, and other criteria.
Another plus is that Leadar prioritizes accuracy. Its proprietary AI system works alongside real-time, human verification. You can rest assured that your efforts return up-to-date information, meaning great ROI.
Indeed
This employment website was launched about two years after LinkedIn. With offices worldwide, it is one of the most influential and popular job search websites. In 2010 Indeed even surpassed Monster as the job website with the highest traffic.
Today this platform offers employers access to more than 200 million resumes. If you list a job, you can expect a share of views from 300 million visitors per month.
The site also uses a ratings and reviews system to keep details accurate. If you are looking for fast results without sacrificing quality, Indeed is worth your time.
Monster
25 years ago Monster made a splash in the recruitment industry. It continues to push for transformation in the industry both for employers and employees. With a focus on helping people achieve better fits in the workplace, this site will help you find perfect candidates for your business.
With many products and services, including a graduate hub, self-assessments, and career advice for job seekers, candidates who upload their CVs on Monster are serious professionals who care about their careers and have a lot to offer.
Google for Jobs
According to CareerBuilder, 70% of job searches started with Google. It was only in 2017 that Google began providing its own listing service. Instead of visiting multiple sites and creating profiles, it’s possible for users to see job postings directly in Google’s user interface.
As an employer, be aware that Google for Jobs is powerful in the recruitment space. Users can use the platform’s impressive algorithms and AI to filter very accurately by location, industry, date posted, and employer. Google users can also opt to receive notifications if an interesting job comes up, so your listing can yield significant, fast results this way.
Here’s another site excellent at connecting people. It’s a key website that people use when seeking employment. They may post to their network or investigate employers on the platform itself. For this reason, it makes financial sense for most medium and large firms to maintain an active presence on Facebook.
At the time of writing, the page for searching for jobs on Facebook has been removed from mobile search and the Lite app. It may not always appear on the desktop site. However, potential candidates continue to visit official Facebook pages of companies that interest them.
Posting a job and using a jobs link on your professional Facebook page is an excellent way to connect with people who really want to work with you. If you are hiring, you should add the “jobs” link to your page. If you aren’t, potential candidates will still be able to reach out to you and send their CVs.
Your own website
It’s not the easiest way to hunt down candidates, but your own website is a sign that your company has taken another level. It will certainly attract people and make the recruitment process simpler.
Your website can play a significant part if you are looking for employees. By including eye-catching text and imagery that shows you’re hiring, you can engage people that know and care about what you do.
You may also attract the attention of loyal fans that would jump at the opportunity to work with you or someone who might be interested in trying for a position in your company.
Most of these sites will give you a wide net to reach potential candidates and sophisticated algorithmic searches to help you drill down and find those ideal for your business. Their combination of power and refinement means that you can search, attract, and engage potentially ideal candidates.
In addition, Facebook and your own website offer excellent opportunities to connect with the right people. People you find (or who find you) through these sources are likely to be motivated and emotionally invested in your brand. Whether you use one of these sites, several, or all seven, focus on what drives your business as well as what you seek from a future employee. This way, you can achieve great results that will help you grow your team.
