The problem

Why do your roles stay open?

  1. Your ads keep running, but the right people never see them

    Your ad has been live for three months. The best candidates usually already have a job: they don’t browse job boards, so they’ve never seen it.

  2. People who apply everywhere go to the highest bidder

    You’re sorting CVs sent to your competitors on the same day, often without the forklift licence, driving licence or shift availability you asked for.

  3. Every week without them costs you money

    An empty role is revenue that isn’t coming in.

The method

From the ad to a qualified application

  1. 01One tap on the ad

    Your job ad shows up in the feeds of the right people, where they already spend their time. A visual tailored to each network, an “Apply” button, and the candidate is on your offer.

    • Shown on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat and LinkedIn
    • Targeted within 20 km
  2. 02The job and a few questions

    The candidate reads the job, then answers a few questions agreed with you: licences, shifts, driving. Some answers are disqualifying and screen out unsuitable profiles straight away, saving you time.

    • Job requirements — C or C+E licence, Driver CPC up to date, Shift work
    • Disqualifying answer — “No” to the C licence: application screened out
  3. 03The application arrives, qualified

    Profiles that meet your criteria arrive qualified, straight into your ATS or into our AI-powered tracking tool. The others are screened out automatically. All that’s left is to call them.

    • Straight into your ATS
    • Off-target profiles screened out
    • SMS sent
