Preparing an Ad

How Long Should the Ad Run?

Even though it is possible to receive several responses from a one-time placement of a recruitment ad, it is best to place your ad online for at least three consecutive months.

This increased exposure should result in a greater response, providing a larger group of candidates to choose from.

What Should Be Included in the Ad Copy?

Location is the most important factor to a job seeker. The more details provided in the ad about the position and the area will result in more interest in the available position.

Information you should consider including in your ad to attract qualified candidates:

• Practice type
• Benefits
• Affiliations with a hospital or university
• Onsite surgical facility
• Special training required
• Information about the community/lifestyle
• Contact information - email, phone and/or fax

Why Use the Job Opportunity Board (JOB) for Recruiting?
