Adding a job count block

Recruitment Marketing Public

If you have many jobs, you may wish to simplify the search process for candidates by grouping jobs based on their common location or department. Once you have a dedicated landing page for each city or department that lists the relevant jobs, it’s good practice to showcase how many jobs are available in each by means of including job count blocks on your careers site homepage.

Job count types

In Recruitment Marketing, job counts can be captured in the following ways, as detailed below.
