Retail recruitment: how to recruit staff for your shop #StartUps


While posting jobs online is usually free, if you’re looking to give your advert more traction, you may want to pay for a sponsored ad. 

When you pay for a sponsored ad, it usually appears at the top of the job research results every time someone makes a relevant query. This means the site that hosts the ad gets a small fee (usually a couple of pence) every time someone clicks on it – and you get a much wider pool of potential candidates. 

Alternatively, you can pay sites like Reed to set up a more sophisticated recruitment campaign on your behalf. 

Reed’s most popular tariff is £175 per job advertised. For that, it’ll automatically email your job to 100 of the best matching profiles it has on its system, and you can add screening questions to your ad to automatically reject applicants who don’t have the right skillset. 

But that’s not all. If you prefer, you could advertise your job through a recruitment agency, or through a certified apprenticeship scheme. We go into more detail about these options later in the article.
