When it comes to engaging future talent for your business, there really is no platform like LinkedIn™. An invaluable tool for job seekers, the platform is designed specifically for professionals to establish and reinforce business relationships – and with 85% of the UK workforce actively using the site, it’s a critical means of sourcing talent for your business.
We’re excited to announce a new partnership with LinkedIn, providing you the opportunity to unlock its full potential and source top talent for your business at a fixed price.
The Benefits of LinkedIn™
Our collaboration with LinkedIn™ – the world’s largest professional network with more than 1 billion members – will offer you:
Huge Reach
Employers are increasingly using LinkedIn™ as a resource for talent acquisition, networking, and building brand awareness. Why? Because the pool of talent is unmatched: in fact, the site boasts over 35 million UK members and an average 18 million daily visits. To give these numbers some context, The Times and Indeed see an average of 5 million and 1.3 million daily visits, respectively.
Active and Passive Talent
Another core benefit of LinkedIn™ is the ability to reach both active and passive candidates. Active candidates – those seeking employment – are motivated to apply for jobs but they make up a small percentage of the workforce, so passive talent cannot be overlooked. After all, passive candidates – those who aren’t actively seeking a new role but would be interested if an opportunity were to present itself – represent a staggering 80% of the global workforce and are ready and waiting to be found on LinkedIn™. The ideal recruitment campaign would target both audience segments.
Target Your Ideal Candidate
Through our popular Social Selection service, we harness the power of LinkedIn™ to source qualified candidates using rich data. We can target candidates using filters such as workplace, job title, location, skills and experience, as well as those open to new opportunities, enabling us to help you engage both active and passive job seekers who are perfectly suited to your opportunity.
The Benefits of Our Partnership
You may well already be using LinkedIn™ as part of your recruitment strategy, but posting your roles organically can lead to limited success. While organic posts carry no direct costs and can build brand awareness, they’re mainly seen by your immediate followers – many of whom may not be your ideal candidate.
You’re able to post one job for free at a time which may work for you, if you’re hiring a few times a year, however your visibility is limited and free jobs:
- will only be active for 21 days, or close early if the apply cap (15 clicks) is reached.
- appear below promoted jobs in search rankings.
- aren’t included in mobile alerts.
Our partnership allows access to promoted jobs on LinkedIn™ for a fixed price. In contrast to free job listings, our promoted jobs:
- reach on average 3x more qualified professionals.
- reach candidates as personalised, targeted recommendations.
- are given priority in search rankings shown at the top of results.
- stay active for up to 28 days.
- receive unlimited clicks.
Alongside promoted jobs, we can also help you engage potential candidates who have been handpicked for their suitability for the role. By sending them a personal message, we create intrigue and encourage them to explore your job opportunity. Our Social Selection service is the perfect complement to promoted jobs on LinkedIn™, and both can be easily booked together.
