We’re very happy to have made it to the finalists stage, and fingers crossed we’ll win! :D

Chinwag Jobs Supports Recruiters With New Services

We’re please to launch a series of new professional services to help take the hard work out of creating, posting and managing adverts on Chinwag Jobs. So, we banged our heads together and put together a bunch of new services that aim to take away the pain.

For recruiters, why not let the Chinwag Team take the strain of posting and reporting on your roles, so you can spend more time with candidates and clients.

If recruiting isn’t your day job, or perhaps even if it is, we also have partnered with a team of crack recruitment copywriters who will write your job vacancy specifically for the web. Great for Chinwag Jobs, your own recruitment pages and other other services. Here’s a little more info on the new services:

Posting Service

Haven’t got the time to post your advert on our website yourself? Need to spend your time talking to clients rather than posting ads? For a small extra charge one of our posting team will post the advert for you, ensuring the best use of our website to maximise the use of our functionality.

Professional Copywriting Service

Crafting a job advert is a skilled and time-consuming process. Our service will take your copy and create a professional, clear, legally-compliant and responsive advert tailored to your audience. You can use this copy on any job service or publication. We use a team of copywriters with years of experience specialising in web-based recruitment marketing.

Personalised Statistical Report

All the statistics regarding your job advertisements can be accessed for free, across all your users on our website. However, should you require a hassle-free personalised report across all your users and their roles without spending any of your own time or energy; we can provide you with a snapshot and detailed account of what’s happened with your entire job postings on the website.

Featured Posts on Chinwag Jobs

We’ve had a fair bit of feedback from employers and recruiters, that they’d like a way to promote vacancies on Chinwag Jobs’ homepage. So, after careful consideration, lots of ruminating and some crafty web work, we’re proud to announce our brand-spanking new Featured Jobs.

In the spirit of being open and transparent, this is a paid-for advertising spot and not jobs that have been selected by us. We hope you find it useful.

Online purchasing - now live!

Today our lovely lead developer has put our ecommerce system online, so now you can buy job credits directly online, if that’s how you like to do things. We’re really excited about this and have been working on it for some time to ensure it’s just right for you and does all clever stuff for us. We’d welcome any feedback you have on it, and if you’d like any help using the system for the first time do give us a call and we’ll talk you through it.

Of course, we’d still love to hear from you too, so if you prefer a human interface to a web based one do give us a call (0870 730 7313).
