Recruitment is also about encouraging job seekers to apply for a job advertised by your company.<\/p>\n<p>The internet is a top resource for many of today\u2019s job hunters, so it is crucial <b>to<\/b> <b>keep up to date<\/b> with the current trends in recruitment industry and also <b>to stay relevant<\/b> to those you are trying to attract.<\/p>\n<p>Also, candidates are more and more browsing for jobs online and on mobiles. Of course this has meant that recruiters now need to start planning keyword optimized recruitment content and application forms in order to connect with quality talent.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/LinkedIn-Recruiting-Trends-Bang-for-Your-Buck-Job-Boards.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" style=\"background-image: none; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"LinkedIn-Recruiting-Trends-Bang-for-Your-Buck-Job-Boards\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/LinkedIn-Recruiting-Trends-Bang-for-Your-Buck-Job-Boards_thumb.jpg\" alt=\"LinkedIn-Recruiting-Trends-Bang-for-Your-Buck-Job-Boards\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Because of that Google Trends should be <b>recruiter\u2019s best friend<\/b>. To benefit from the information Google Trends provides, recruiters should know how to well use its features and how to benefit from that for their content creation process.<\/p>\n<p>Google Trend allows you to see what stories have been searched for the most over <b>the last 24 hours<\/b>. This list can be changed to a specific country or a certain industry, for example recruitment and then it will bring up the corresponding list of top stories.<\/p>\n<p>Google Trends has also many useful features when it comes <b>to writing up job adverts<\/b>. :<br \/>\nthe recruiter can write a word or a phrase in the explore section and then analyze the data returned.<\/p>\n<p>It allows also to determine the interest of a <b>specific keyword<\/b> and to measure that keyword against another four words to see which is <b>the most popular<\/b>, so only the most optimized words will be incorporated into an advert.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at an example of how this could work by comparing the phrases \u201cengineering jobs\u201d and \u201cengineer jobs\u201d on Google Trends .We can see that the number of searches for one phrase far outstrips the other. This is a proof of how a recruiter could benefit from using the right keywords for job adverts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/google_trends_eng_jobs.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" style=\"background-image: none; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"google_trends_eng_jobs\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/google_trends_eng_jobs_thumb.jpg\" alt=\"google_trends_eng_jobs\" width=\"579\" height=\"349\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Google Trends has also the <b>Top Charts<\/b> tab, which you might use to find topics that are popular this month in your field. These topics could be an inspiration for new material for recruiter\u2019s blog and website.

This feature can be used by a recruiter by looking at when people have been most interested in a keyword and plan around this.
