The moment of truth

All the hard work you’ve put into your Employer Brand and Talent Attraction campaign is worth nothing if your job description page isn’t up to scratch.

It’s the moment of truth for candidates - when they decide whether they’re actually going to apply or not. 

A great job description page makes all the difference:

  • Employer Brand Consistency

    Arguably the most influential reflection of your employer brand, this page should be working hard to efficiently invite more valued applicants to apply.

  • Positive Candidate Experience

    To a candidate, applying for a role should be as quick and easy as buying something online.

  • Smart Recruitment Spend

    Reduce your cost per applicant from your recruitment marketing campaigns by optimising the performance and conversion of your job description pages as well as helping them get found more for free in Google.

Is creating a great Job Page really all that complicated?

Short answer: No, not when you know what ‘great’ looks like.
Let's take a look at just three key elements of the Engagement that Job Page Grader reports on for free:

Positive Sentiment

They might mean the same thing, but there’s a big difference between “Nothing’s impossible” and “Everything’s possible.”

Candidates assess and judge every single word of your job description - often unconsciously.

Job Page Grader detects linguistic patterns that may undermine your job page, so you can present content that lands positively with applicants.

Readability

“Keep it super simple.”

Elements like word choice and sentence length have a serious impact on how well your job description lands with applicants.

Job Page Grader checks your visitors can easily read and understand what you’re saying.

Discrimination Bias

Everyday language can be subtly “bias-coded”, but on a job page, this risks repelling your ideal candidate.

Job Page Grader analyzes your text towards particular demographics, helping you write in a more neutral way and stopping you from accidentally turning candidates away.
