First impressions are essential for both candidates and employers, meaning how you advertise a job plays a vital part in the hiring process. A job advertisement stands as the initial touchpoint – it can either capture or lose the interest of top-tier potential candidates.
As one of the world’s leading recruitment companies, with nearly 50 years of experience, we have the know-how at Page Personnel to help you understand what a job advertisement is, how to write one, and the solutions to attract top talent.
A job advertisement is a notice or announcement publicising a job opening, with key details about the position available. It usually offers a written summary of a vacant role that an employer is actively recruiting for. Read on to dive into the details.

Now, let’s delve into what makes an effective job advert.
It is vital to be clear, concise, and accurate in your description. Job postings should include helpful information for candidates, such as:
Clarity and transparency are key. The clearer you are the more likely you are to attract the right fit, ensure a seamless process, avoid misunderstandings, and help save time later down in the process.
The best options for job advertisement placing will vary depending on your company’s size and sector, the role, and which talent pool(s) the recruiter is aiming to hire from.
Who is your target audience and where they are likely to search for a role? Things to consider:
Depending on the target demographic, physical media such as newspaper advertisement sections, job centres and in-person events such as job fairs, and virtual job fairs could be great avenues to pursue.
Using other media formats such as video to create or support job applications can give you an advantage. Video is particularly useful when seeking to hire from pools of young, qualified candidates, especially if the role is focused on video.
HR managers can be effective in spreading the word about their well-honed job advertisements via a plethora of suitable outlets, but increasingly companies are seeking expert help in recruitment to make sure they are hiring in the most effective ways.
Page Personnel's advertising packages include services such as social network advertisement planning and execution, and both generalist and industry-specific job board targeting.
