Attracting Candidates and Producing Job Ads

Course Overview

This course is provided by Learning4Business. Having completed this course you should be able to identify the best source of candidates for specific job vacancies and design and place successful job advertisements.

Advertising for the wrong person in the wrong place at the wrong time can greatly harm a carefully cultivated corporate image. Achievement of the learning outcomes of this course will mean that you are in no danger of falling into this trap. In addition, you will be in a position to save your organisation substantial time and money that might otherwise be wasted through imprecise job advertising.

For any organisation or company its people are its lifeblood; finding and hiring the right people, however, is a major challenge, given the competition for staff with the right skills, knowledge and attitude. For this reason it is vital that any person with a responsibility for, or a role within staff recruitment is highly competent to perform that function. Failure to ensure this competence will result in an inability to attract the right people, and/or a failure to identify those people at the time of recruitment.

The course is divided into 3 sections covering the following areas:

• the potential
• identifying the best candidate sources
• designing and placing effective job advertisements
