How using keywords for jobs gets your vacancies seen

Spending a little time on creating the perfect job advert using keywords for jobs is one of the most effective ways to get your vacancies seen. 

Here’s a few tips on how SEO for recruitment can give you a competitive edge and what we’re doing to help.

Keywords in job description

Research the key terms to use to get the best response to your job advert. Avoid gimmicky buzzwords, particularly in the job title. Nobody will find your jobs by searching for ‘engineering evangelist’, so keep it simple. Also try to avoid abbreviations and technical jargon. 

Remember, your jobs will be competing against similar employers, so it might be worthwhile seeing what your competitors are doing so you can see the keywords from job descriptions, but also doing a little bit of keyword research using tools such as Google Keyword Planner to make sure you cover the essentials.

Don’t overuse keywords for jobs

Search engines will penalise content that appears to be gaming the system, so be careful not to overuse keywords because otherwise you might be considered to be ‘keyword stuffing’. Use synonyms to avoid re-using the same words over and over again, and re-read your content out loud so you can identify repetition.

Use a location

With SEO for jobs, location is maybe one of the most important things to consider. Not only does it mean your vacancies get seen by more people, but it means they get seen by the right people too. 

Make sure you complete the location field accurately and include the location in the job description too. Then leave the rest to us - we’ll make sure the location also appears in places such as the page URL so that your jobs outrank others so that when someone searches for ‘Engineer jobs in Edinburgh’ or ‘Pilot roles in Palma’, they’ll find your vacancies.
