What is Programmatic Job Advertising?

By Sara West on Sep 10 , 2021

Recruitment of top talent is one of the biggest challenges most companies face, regardless of their size or industry. Recruiters are competing for the most qualified candidates while balancing the management of a high volume of applicants. 

Programmatic job advertising is one solution that can improve efficiency and decrease total costs in the recruiting process. 

Understanding Programmatic Job Advertising

Simply put, programmatic advertising is the buying and selling of online ads through automation tools. Advertisers can place ads across multiple online channels to target a specific demographic. Programmatic advertising ensures that the right ad is seen at the right time by the right audience to increase engagement. 

Programmatic Job Advertising Delivers Superior Results

Similar to programmatic advertising, programmatic job advertising uses similar automation tools to buy and optimize jobs ads. This automated process ensures that a target job candidate sees the job ad. This technology integrates with a network of job boards, websites, and ad space to put job ads on the channels that deliver the best results. 

How Is It Different From Traditional Job Advertising? 

Studies show that traditional job advertising models can lead to expensive and ineffective results. This approach to talent recruitment forces recruiters to negotiate, purchase, and monitor all job advertising investments. This can lead to inefficient and costly processes that don’t reach the right potential candidates. Programmatic job advertising automates the digital advertising process to manage costs and guarantee that your job lands in front of precisely the right candidate —the one you want to hire. 

Big Benefits for Recruiters

Programmatic has changed the way advertisers and recruiters use online platforms. It provides recruiters with the tools for cost-effective access to targeted job seekers. Key benefits of programmatic job advertising include:

  • Cost-effective job advertising
  • Higher quality application volume
  • Faster time-to-hire
  • Recruiter efficiency

Business Impact of Programmatic

Companies and recruiters are investing in programmatic job advertising because it provides the tools to consistently attract quality, engaged candidates and reduce the cost per hire. Programmatic replaces ineffective advertising methods and provides quick results on job ad performance. The results show that programmatic advertising consistently helps companies increase the speed of the hiring process and save money.
