Online job board advertising remains one of the best recruitment tools available to Australian health care employers. Online job boards range from generic, mainstream job boards that post job ads for all occupations and sectors, to niche job boards that cater to specific industries. In the health care sector, district health boards and large employers may have their own job board with available vacancies.
Top 3 job boards to advertise your health care and medical role in Australia, and why:
- SEEK is a national leader in “online employment marketplaces.” They display the largest online job board in Australia and NZ, with an extensive list of jobs and other information. SEEK advertises all jobs, across all industries and job types. They attract job seekers across all occupations and job types.
- Indeed is a global online job-searching aggregator with an Australian site. They are considered one of the largest job sites in the US and Europe. Like SEEK, they advertise jobs and attract job seekers across all industries and job types.
- MedicalJobsAustralia.com operates as Australia’s biggest health and medical jobs site for clinical professionals and health employees, displaying a range of medical and health care roles from across Australia. MedicalJobsAustralia.com attracts targeted medical and health care job seeker traffic only.
Job board pricing compared:
The cost of online job board advertising varies. Most websites charge a pay-per-listing or pay-per-click ad fee, but it’s also possible to find smaller online job boards offering free posting. Below we compare the prices of the top 3 sites:
- SEEK uses a market demand model to determine its prices for advertisers. The cost of posting a job ad on SEEK will vary depending on the role – its title, classification, salary, supply and demand of candidates, and location. It can cost anywhere from $375 upwards per job ad, with packages available for high-volume advertisers.
- Indeed offers ‘basic’ job ad posting for free, ‘sponsored’ job ad posting - charged by click and available from $5 per day – and a ‘hiring campaign’ option for high-volume advertisers.
- MedicalJobsAustralia.com offers quality and affordable medical and health care job board advertising from $185 per job ad, and discounted job packs are available at $110 per job ad for advertisers with multiple listings. Job ads listed on MedicalJobsAustralia.com are also advertised on the Medical Jobs dedicated job board network.
The large, generic job boards tend to be more expensive and aim to generate high job seeker traffic numbers and exposure. However, they often fall short of attracting the right health and medical job seekers, and in turn, may fail to deliver quality candidates to health care employers. Specialty/niche job boards, like MedicalJobsAustralia.com, can deliver great value for money with targeted medical and health care job seeker traffic, exposure and results.
