The best way to ensure your ad shows up in candidate’s searches is by offering all the benefits you possibly can. Competition is incredibly high, now more than ever, so to find the best candidates, you have to offer the best rewards. The more benefits you offer also mean the more likely your ad is to populate in a candidate’s search, especially as they make their searches more specific.

If you offer other, unique benefits, include those too! The more, the merrier. Candidates are interested in positions that are not just a job, but a mutually beneficial relationship. This means they’re picking a job not based on what they can do for a specific employer, but what that employer can do for them.
