Economic advantages in the current recessive environment are sometimes hard to spot but they exist. Speaking with publications and websites everyday, I hear the key phrases, “Lets make a deal”, “business is slow so present your offer”, “I can make it happen” “Newspapers are making a comeback” OK the last one was a joke. The recruitment advertising environment is ripe for deal making so lets talk about a few available now:
- HotJobs is one of the leaders in online job boards. Right now, they are offering 25%-off core products.If you catch them near quota time (much like buying a car at the end of the month) – 30-40% off is attainable.
- Careerbuilder – Clients are receiving huge discounts – single postings can be purchased at 40% off published rate. Multiple postings are also discounted – retail rates are for those without a voice, ask and you will receive.
- Monster – 3 (14) day postings for only $400 – a great option and you have all year to use the 3 postings. For those who want a longer web presence you can choose 3(60 day) postings for only $800.
- Nurseweek – National Nurses Week is next week! A great way to say “Thanks” to your staff in the California edition of Nurseweek (w/Free pickup into Mtn West). If you’re in other regions, they will make a similar pick-up offer.
- Accounting/Finance Industry Niche job postings… Only $295. Over 384k qualified candidates on 200 Industry Websites.
- Need Resume Database Access? Monster 2-week Local resume access is regularly $650… now only $495.
These are just a few current offers, if you have a specific need that isn’t covered by the media listed above, let me know. The “lets make a deal” rules are in full effect no matter the pub or job site right now.
