"We have an internal candidate to consider, it is a new role to business as part of a step change focus with our corporate channel we need to ensure we are talking to the best people in the market not just who was active and available".
The campaign:
Google Ad Words, LinkedIn pay-per-click ads and the LinkedIn Job Slot were utilised to target a passive audience that matched the clients specific skill set, with traditional Job Boards not attracting the right candidate pool, This sourcing methodology allowed us to pinpoint candidates online by - language, location, likes/interests, industry and functional expertise, seniority, and role specific key words. Based on this criteria text and banner based ads appeared only on matching LinkedIn profiles, managed websites and related articles or websites. With top placements achieved on nzherald.co.nz, stuff.co.nz, 3news.co.nz and guardian.co.uk.
