Are you promoting your recruitment content? Here is why you should!

Creating and promoting great recruitment content is a crucial part of employer branding. ✅

Many HR professionals come up with great recruitment content ideas. They listen to their candidates’ needs and create interesting and useful recruitment content for every step of the candidate journey. 👏

Creating great recruitment content that grabs your candidates' attention is important, but it is only the first step in creating successful recruitment marketing campaigns.

➡️ The second one is the promotion of your recruitment content. Recruitment content promotion is the process of sharing recruitment content across multiple venues, channel and places. It is a great way to boost your recruitment content’s visibility and maximize its ROI.

Unfortunately, most HR professionals fail at promoting their recruitment content. They simply don’t know where to start or how to do it. 😕
