I attended a CareerOne workshop recently regarding the advantages of print advertising and I have to say, the figures are overwhelming. It seems to be a common misconception that print advertising is a dying medium for locating talent, but not so says this lowly Recruiter. It has been surveyed extensively by the team at CareerOne and they report that a whopping 86% of all job seekers read the newspaper every week. They also revealed that 800,000 Queenslanders read the Courier Mail specifically. So why the widespread reluctance to advertise roles in print?  

"The cost," I hear you all scream collectively! Ahh well, I have solved that wee issue for you. We currently have a special deal we are offering on print advertising which we know will be hard (if not impossible) for anyone else to beat. We already have a number of clients taking advantage of this limited deal and the results for those clients has been phenomenal. As an example, we ran an ad campaign in the Courier Mail last Saturday to advertise three senior level positions we are currently recruiting for and we can't get the phones to stop ringing. The response has been overwhelming, and the quality of candidates has been exceptional.

As the business world continues to modernise and consequently becomes more automated, I believe that many of us are forgetting about the power of print advertising. There is far more chance of print advertisements reaching a passive job market which increases your exposure, not to mention the branding opportunities! So why not use this prestigious medium? We will write the content, create the layout and ensure we are placing your advertisement in the most appropriate section of the paper to guarantee maximum exposure. All you have to do is pick up the phone and take advantage of this limited offer!
