If you follow our Facebook page for Nurses.co.uk (if you don’t, like it now!) you will have noticed today that the lovely Alex from Green Care Management and I have started work on a new idea! As usual, simple ideas are the best and hopefully this is a pretty awesome idea for anyone looking for nursing jobs or midwifery jobs.
It’s common for recruiters to be pretty tight-lipped when it comes to releasing details about jobs into the public arena, and that’s usually for fear of a competitor ‘reverse gazumping’ them and stealing their client by pitching a better deal. However, in this increasingly competitive job market the game rules are changing, and in order to attract the best candidates, recruiters are having to work harder and crucially, release more details about the jobs they advertise.
So for any recruiter who is brave enough to do so, I am offering them to chance to be featured on our nurses Facebook page and have a dedicated note to a particular job vacancy shown on the page. They will be required to post an in-depth job description, give details of salary, benefits and working pattern (if known). Candidates will be able to freely access every detail available about a particular job before deciding whether or not to make an application.
This is a huge step forward for clarity in recruiting, and I’m so proud that we’ve made the first step. To check out the nursing and midwifery positions that are available through Green Care, you can read the note about nursing and midwifery jobs in the UAE on Facebook. This is a sign of things to come – there is as much detail there as anyone could expect, and the contact details for the recruiter are shown as well.
In order to continue this trend, it’s important that candidates have a voice. Tell recruiters what it is that convinces you to apply for a job online. Please answer this poll – choose as many answers as you like. Your feedback is really important to us, we can’t do it without you and after all, we’re here to provide a service to you the job seeker!
