Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your Career Site Revealed

PRLog (Press Release) - Nov. 26, 2012 - Campbell, CA – In today’s ever-changing world of recruitment marketing, one variable remains constant: your employment website. No matter the sourcing channel, be it social or traditional media, referrals, emails, SEO, SEM or even snail mail, your career site is and will remain the primary destination for candidates as they evaluate your organization as an employer. Thus, it has the ability to make – or break – your recruitment marketing outcomes.

President/CEO Curtis Rogers and Director of Interactive Services Brandon Spencer of the global recruitment marketing agency CKR Interactive (http://www.ckrinteractive.com) will be sharing insight on how employers can get the most out of their career site during HR.com’s webcast, “More than a Pretty Picture.” The session will demonstrate the profound effect the look and user interface (UI) have on recruiting efforts by walking attendees through employment website best practices and innovations, from the very basics of quick search job functionality to rich and social media integrations. Participants will come away with a thorough understanding of how they can increase the number of quality applicants they attract by improving their organization’s career site.

“Many employers unfortunately are not in the know of easy tips and tactics they can implement to create an award-winning career site that is optimized to attract top talent,” shares Spencer. “Within ongoing revisions in the SEO [search engine optimization] realm, web accessibility standards, emerging platforms, media, programming languages and frameworks, it’s becoming increasingly important for career site owners to be in the know of best practices in site development and design. Otherwise, they’re likely losing top talent to their competitors and tarnishing their employer brand and reputation online.”

At the end of this fun and informative session, participants will come away with a thorough understanding of:

     ● How to increase the number of quality applicants through a career site.

     ● Different types of career-specific websites (i.e. career sites, microsites, landing pages), and when/how they should be used.

     ● Best practices in career site design and SEO.

The webcast will be held on Tuesday, December 4, at 12pm PT/3pm ET. To register to attend the webcast, please go to: http://www.hr.com/en/webcasts_events/webcasts/upcoming_we....
