Bring your hiring process to the next level
The success of a job ad depends on many factors: some of those depend on the region of your advertised job ad, the type of job ad you are publishing, the season, location but also if the title is too long or short.
Yes, there’s special pricing for job ad postings targeted to find qualified candidates who are looking for internships or opportunities to work next to their studies (max. 20 hours/week).
If you choose to invest into the ‘Professional’ package for 30 days, then your job ad will automatically be refreshed and updated after 15 days. This means that your job ad will move up to the top again, thus being more visible to users.
We use our extensive data and technology to help you decide where best to invest your money. We analyze and recommend specific job boards and platforms in a data-driven way to help you find the right candidate faster.
