Job Advertising Overview

Top Echelon Recruiting Software and Top Echelon Network customers have access to a growing variety of Job Advertising options to get their positions posted on the web. This overview article will outline the various venues you can post your positions to via the software, as well as the three areas of the software you can initiate a posting.

Venues you can advertise your positions to via Top Echelon Recruiting Software and Top Echelon Network are separated into three categories:

(1) Top Echelon Services Job Advertising – These are posting services related to Top Echelon Software products.
- Posting to the Top Echelon Recruiting Software Job Board & Social Media Sharing (Available to Top Echelon Recruiting Software customers only)
  - This service is included with Top Echelon Recruiting Software and allows you to post positions to their website’s careers page after setup. Once advertised to the website, postings can then be shared via social media status updates on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn to help drive traffic back to your site.
- Posting to Top Echelon Network & the TEN Jobs Feed (Available to Top Echelon Network customers only)
  - This service allows Top Echelon Network Members to share their positions to other Network members in the hope of making a split placement with another firm. Once shared to the Network, you can also choose to share the job to other members’ websites via the TEN Jobs Feed option.
(2) Paid Job Boards – These are third-party posting services that require a fee to be paid to allow advertising.
- Top Echelon Job Posting Tool (Available to both Top Echelon Recruiting Software and Top Echelon Network customers)
  - This service allows any Top Echelon Recruiting Software or Top Echelon Network user to sponsor their job on various third-party websites through Top Echelon Software managed cost-per-click advertising. This service is a low cost alternative to direct postings on third-party websites, and also has subscription pricing available.
(3) Free Boards – These are third-party posting services that require no additional cost.
- Free Job Boards
  - This service allows you to easily send a job to all of our free job board partners with a single click. Applicants who apply via these job boards will be automatically added to the corresponding Job’s Pipeline within Top Echelon Software
- Monster Organic Posting (Available to both Top Echelon Recruiting Software and Top Echelon Network customers)
  - This service allows any Top Echelon Recruiting Software or Top Echelon Network user to post their job to Monster’s Organic Posting feed. Please note: it is recommended that you do not use this service if already posting to Monster via one of their paid options (this includes the Top Echelon Posting Tool mentioned above).
