Key Takeaways...
👉 The difference between a job ad and a job description: A job ad is about selling the opportunity and the benefits to potential candidates, whereas a job description is more detailed and focuses on job requirements and responsibilities.
👉 Importance of writing a compelling job ad: A well-crafted job ad can attract the right candidates, especially important for small practices that may not have the budget for recruitment agencies.
👉 Where to advertise: Utilise your own website, social media, architectural job boards, and your professional network to advertise vacancies. Consider the target audience when choosing where to post your job ad.
👉 Content details crucial to job seekers: Include job title, location, company information, responsibilities, software abilities, salary (avoid saying 'competitive'), benefits (like hybrid or flexible working), and clear application instructions.
👉 Common mistakes to avoid: Do not underestimate the effort it takes to apply for a job. Simplify the application process, be transparent about salaries, and avoid asking for salary expectations during the application stage.
👉 Effective job ad structure: Start with practice name, job title, and location. Provide a concise company overview, role details, requirements (limit bullet points), salary/benefits info, and application instructions.
👉 Encourage diversity and give applicants a chance to learn: Limit the requirements to what's essential and be open to training candidates, fostering a culture of learning and growth within the practice.
