Tutorial: Only ten steps to have your free advert published<\/h2>\n

Step 1:<\/h3>\n

It is so simple to post an advert that anyone can do it. Even a child could post on Indeed. You just have to go on Indeed employers and click on Post Job<\/strong>!\"Indeed<\/p>\n

Step 2:<\/h3>\n

If you have not published on Indeed before, you have to create an account<\/strong>. Don’t worry, it is free\u00a0<\/strong>(as we said before). The site reminds its users to accept the terms of service, the cookie policy and of course the privacy policy.\"Indeed<\/p>\n

Step 3:<\/h3>\n

In this step, you give information about you as a recruiter and about your company, for your soon to be \u201cemployer page\u201d<\/strong>. You have to give your company<\/strong> name<\/strong>, size, your name, your phone number and how you heard about Indeed.<\/strong>\u00a0If you have trouble at any stage through the process, you can ask the team for help<\/strong>.\"Account<\/p>\n

Step 4:<\/h3>\n

It is from this step onwards that the actual publication starts. Don’t worry, this step is just as easy as the others. The process is tracked for you thanks to an orange bar above the required fields. Here, you have to determine the job title<\/strong> of your offer, the name<\/strong> of the company (to be changed or not) and the location<\/strong>. You can of course go backwards<\/strong> in the advert if you need to change something.<\/p>\n

\"Getting<\/p>\n

Step 5:<\/h3>\n

This step is called \u201cjob details\u201d<\/strong>. All of the fields in this section are\u00a0optional<\/strong>. You can tick the type<\/strong> of job (which usually refers to the type of hours, for instance \u201cpart-time\u201d) and the salary<\/strong> for the job. Many companies do not give this information because it can either attract or repel a potential candidate.\"Job<\/p>\n

Step 6:<\/h3>\n

The \u201capplication settings\u201d<\/strong> step. At this stage, you decide how you will receive the applications (by email or in person), you put the address (an e-mail a address or a mailing one) and then you decide if you want to recieve resumes or not.\"Application<\/p>\n

Step 7:<\/h3>\n

Now it’s time to complete the job description by adding more details.\u00a0Usually, you’ve written this\u00a0before<\/strong>, and you only have to copy and paste. Do not forget to check it again before clicking on\u00a0‘continue’<\/strong>.\"Job<\/p>\n

Step 8:<\/h3>\n

Indeed recommends<\/strong> you questions you should ask the candidate according to your job description and all other details you gave before. You can choose whether asking them or not. This will definitely help<\/strong> you select the more relevant applications.\"Application<\/p>\n

Step 9:<\/h3>\n

Last but not least, this is the step that allows you to preview<\/strong> your job advert. You can edit information for free, before publishing your advert. Check if everything is written properly before pressing the ‘confirm’ button.<\/p>\n

\"Preview<\/p>\n

Step 10:<\/h3>\n

There you have it! Your job offer is published<\/strong>. Usually, process takes next to no\u00a0time<\/strong>, which\u00a0is why Indeed is one of the most used job boards in the world. It is always simple<\/strong>. You can now sponsor<\/strong>\u00a0the offer, advertise it on your website for better visibility.<\/strong>\u00a0The job offer won\u2019t be free anymore, and you’ll have to pay every time someone clicks on it. The same rule applies if you want to cancel it or to modify it.<\/p>\n

Cost<\/h2>\n

The price of sponsored adverts varies<\/strong> from one country to another. You often have to pay first around $5 to sponsor<\/strong> your advert. When you sponsor an advert, this will lead you to the pay-per-click<\/strong> system. You will have to choose the price you are willing to pay between $0.25 and $1.50. Choose your budget<\/strong> and Indeed will directly advise you the best thing to do to make your advert more visible on their website. (Here, in the example, the prices are in Euro).\u00a0\"pay-per-click<\/p>\n
