What makes it really worthwhile to advertise with us
We have a multiplier effect on quality applications. Yes we rely on the volume of BankingSkills visitors, and yes we also invest a lot into job search engines; but what makes it really worthwhile to advertise with us is our commitment to pro actively promote your vacancy within the web. Through web tools which match the most relevant areas, we promote and redirect targeted candidates onto the vacancy.
Concept
BankingSkills differentiates its services through a special business approach which helps advertisers avoid the problem of untargeted candidates, and focuses on avoiding as much as possible the burden of unsuitable applications.
Most job boards simply rely on the volume of users who visit their website, but the result of this is that often many applications actually do not really suit the vacancy. As we know some job seekers will spam applications to vacancies and are not always concerned about its specifics, following the concept that it’s much easier to apply to a vacancy than read it, analyzing its compatibility. As an example, it’s common that positions like Sales Manager get applications from people who actually searched for Sales Assistant or Sales Representative roles in first place, carrying two years experience whilst at least five are required. A result of 2 or 5 or 15 applications submitted can easily be worth nothing to the employer.
Within this scenario, the job boards’ war of daily/monthly visitors and massive traffic numbers is nowadays almost becoming a rat race, not understanding that the real issue is the targeting of candidates.
And you target on the post..
BankingSkills strongly recommends taking advantage of the open questions feature available to recruiters when posting a job. This features permits advertisers to write questions a candidate needs to answer when applying, not simply ticking boxes but manually writing short answers.
Eg.
- How would you define your analytic skills?
- Which are the main tasks you’ve covered during your experience as a Project Manager?
It’s demonstrated that this feature ensures that only interested and relevant candidates who believe the vacancy is worth some effort to respond will apply. Also, it is well proven that such questions have the effect of discouraging applications from candidates who exaggerate their experience or attempt to cover up lack of matching skills.
