care about?
? Job summary

candidate think ?yes, this sounds like me!?Be specific
? Use short sentences

culture? This is a great opportunity to join a fantastic
company and work on some massive projects.
?Lead a team of 10 Developers. Build innovative
software that integrates social media platforms.
Manage budget pipelines valued at $3M.
? Salary information
? Candidates prefer to know the salaryYou must
include salary information for your role, but you can
choose not to display it to candidates.Job ads that
display salary information usually receive more
applications than ones that don?t.If a candidate
filters their search results by salary range, the filter
will use your ad?s salary information whether you
have chosen to display or not.
? Location
? The more specific, the betterYou must include a
location for your role, but you can choose how
specific the location is.When a candidate searches for
a specific suburb or town, job ads that provide this
information have priority over job ads with a more
general location.If you specify a suburb, your job ad
will still be visible to candidates who search for
neighbouring or broader areas.
