According to a survey by Lee Hecht Harrison, only 11% of job seekers don’t use social media during their job hunt*. That means you could be missing out on up to 89% of potential applicants if you're not sharing your job postings on social media!
But no worries—you’re already connected to major social media platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, and X (formerly Twitter)! Let’s get those job postings out there to boost your reach.
Follow these steps to post your job openings on social media:
1. Locate the Job You Want to Share
- Find the job card for the position you'd like to promote.
- Click the More option (next to the Online/Offline toggle).
- Select Post to Job Boards from the dropdown.
2. Share to Social Media
- You'll see the icons for LinkedIn, Facebook, and X (formerly Twitter) directly under your job title.
- Click on the relevant icon for the platform you want to post to.
- A new window will pop up where you can log into your social media account and post the job. Easy peasy!
3. Share via the Careers Page
- You can also find these social media icons on your Careers Page.
- Select the job you’d like to promote.
- Look to the top-right corner of the page for the social media icons and click to share.
