Once you have prepared a job description and person specification you will be able to produce an advert. Be clear, brief and to the point. Include the requirements of the job, criteria for applicants, the salary and package offered, length of contract and location of employment. Give a brief description of your organisation and if possible a link to your website. Don't forget details of how to apply e.g. by post, e-mail, telephone etc.
Where to advertise?
You will now need to decide on where best to advertise. Choose carefully as this is a costly process!
If you are looking for someone with similar technical skills as you, think where you would look for jobs - do you have a trade journal or professional publication that provides space for vacancies? Research shows that these work best for managerial and professional posts.
More and more job hunters are using the Internet to look for jobs. Consider this as an option. You may find that advertising through the local papers gives you a link with an online recruitment facility such as Monster or Fish4Jobs.
