Advertising a job and interviewing candidates
Where and how to advertise your job
There are a range of options available to you when advertising a job. These include:
- newspapers and magazines
- online job and recruitment sites
- your website and social media channels
- Jobs and Benefits office and JobCentre network
- JobApplyNI.com
- employment agencies
Decide what's appropriate for you
Think about who you want to read the advertisement, how long it should run for, how quickly you want a response and how much you can afford to pay.
Check the costs - internet sites can be cheaper than advertising in a newspaper - and time the advertisement carefully, eg avoid holiday periods.
