Where would you look for jobs?

Nina Waters

I'd appreciate any thoughts from people starting out in an HR/people career about where they would look for jobs? I work in a school, and am looking for someone for a job that could be really good for someone in their first or second role -  but sector-focused sources aren't very relevant for the role. I don't have a large recruitment advertising budget, so would value any suggestions about the best places to advertise. 

Thanks!

  • Indeed is the default starting place. The signal-to-noise ratio is quite unfavourable, but a carefully worded advert and job title, with the right key words, can achieve a great deal without needing to splurge. You will, however, have to fend off endless sales calls from Indeed wanting to persuade you that with an investment of just a few hundred pounds you could reach thousands more candidates.

    Do not.

    (N.B. A paid account on Indeed is a great investment for some businesses and sectors and worth the money, but for a one-off role in a small public sector operation like a school... definitely not!)
