“When looking through the jobs section, and seeing jobs similar in content, role, location and salary, what motivates candidates to submit their application to one company and not to another?”

It almost goes without saying, but a very important factor is image, and how a company is perceived by the people outside of it.

In an age where access to information is more freely available than it has ever been and the medium that people choose to access that information is the Internet, it is important to realize that by being proactive and getting your message out, it is possible to effectively control the information candidates are likely to base their opinions on.

Looking specifically at how an Internet-based job site such as GaijinPot can help here; branding, credibility and a recognizable corporate personality are all vital in attracting great personnel. A recent study indicates that people need at least 27 instances of visual perspective to remember something.

“To successfully seize the attention of a wide range of candidates and obtain the ones you really want, you need to focus your web presence.”

A banner on GaijinPot will help maximize awareness of your corporate brand; increasing visibility and generating even more exposure for your job offers.

A Company Spotlight gives job-seekers detailed information about your company, giving candidates a taste of what you’re all about, pointing them to your available positions, and providing a link back to your website.

A Company Presentation generates a branded presence for your organization and gets more exposure for your job offer and gives candidates a more in-depth portrait of your business, thus helping candidates to self-select, which benefits everyone involved.
