Recruitment marketing ensures smart recruitment with campaigns that do reach the right candidates
About recruitment marketing
Recruitment marketing is the smart and effective way to help your organization attract the right talent. With a data-driven approach and creative concepts, we ensure that your vacancies are visible on the right channels, at exactly the right time. This way you reach potential candidates who really fit your organization and culture – the ideal candidate who really strengthens your team. Moreover, recruitment marketing reduces the cost per hire and shortens time-to-hire, making the recruitment process more efficient. Recruiting via online channels is not a luxury but an accelerator, allowing you to quickly and effectively reach the right target group.
Recruitment marketing helps not only to generate more job applications, but also to recruit better candidates. Through a strong combination of employer branding and targeted campaigns, we build a powerful employer brand that creates trust and commitment. This strengthens your position in the labor market and speeds up the recruitment process. In addition, recruitment marketing gives you a grip on your funnel and insight into what works and what doesn’t, so that you can continuously optimize.
Description of recruitment marketing
Recruitment marketing is not an isolated job posting, but an integrated approach in which branding, content and performance come together. We connect your employer brand with labor market communication and conversion optimization. We ensure maximum visibility and interaction with the right target group, from job boards to social media such as LinkedIn. Your vacancies deserve more than just a post on LinkedIn; a strategic approach is essential to reach the right candidates.
Our smart recruitment marketing focuses on the right profiles within your industry and target audience. With targeted campaigns and persona research, we appeal to the right people with the right message. This makes the recruitment process more efficient and effective, allowing you to select and hire the right candidates faster. It is also important to entice latent candidates with relevant content on the right channels, so that they too become interested in your organization. Latent candidates are the most important target group in a tight labor market because they often have the desired skills but are not actively looking for a new job.

Frequently asked questions about recruitment marketing
What is the difference between recruitment marketing and employer branding?
Employer branding builds your organization’s image and reputation as an employer. Recruitment marketing actively uses this brand with campaigns to recruit the right candidates and stimulate applications. Here, recruitment marketing plays a crucial role in translating the employer brand into concrete actions that appeal to and attract potential candidates. It is therefore not only about creating a strong employer brand, but also about effectively communicating your organization’s assets and stimulating interaction with potential employees.
Which channels are most effective?
It depends on your ideal candidate and industry. Often a mix of LinkedIn, job boards, Google, social media and email is most effective. It is also important to keep looking for new and emerging channels where your target audience is present, such as TikTok or podcasts, to also reach latent candidates who are not actively looking. By communicating on various channels, you increase visibility and attract a broader group of professionals. Using new channels such as podcasts and TikTok can also help you appeal to new generations of talent.
How quickly will I see results?
Reach and website traffic are often visible within a few weeks. Structural growth in quality applications requires continuous optimization over several months. It is important to map and optimize the entire application journey to smoothly guide candidates through the process and increase the likelihood of successful recruitment.
Can recruitment marketing help even with difficult jobs?
Yes. By targeting the right profiles with a strong employer brand, you increase the chances of successful selection, even with scarce target groups. Recruitment marketing offers the expertise to identify the right competencies and qualities of candidates and to link these to the specific challenges within your organization. Moreover, maintaining a talent pool and organizing events helps to engage staff and attract new professionals, thus creating a sustainable influx of talent.
