Website Maintenance for recruitment agencies

Website maintenance keeps a site secure, working and current after launch, so problems are caught before customers notice them. For recruitment agencies, that means getting job listings, specialist sectors and vacancy submission for employers right, because candidates looking for work and employers hiring want to apply or submit a vacancy without hunting for information.

What your customers are trying to do

Candidates looking for work and employers hiring want to apply or submit a vacancy.

A recruitment agency website usually has to handle searchable job listings with applications, vacancy submissions from employers, client and candidate logins and job alerts.

Searchable job listings with applications: candidates expect to search and apply in a few steps.

Vacancy submissions from employers: employers need a quick way to brief you on a role.

Client and candidate logins: shortlists and timesheets are easier to manage in one place.

Job alerts: alerts bring candidates back when a matching role appears.
