We reflect the Sterling brand with our job adverts, so this is important. It’s also essential for search engine optimisation (SEO) to ensure that our online content (adverts and website) is shown to our potential candidates (and customers). A study found that 88% of candidates begin their job search on Google and will visit the results which appear on the first page of Google for their chosen search. By having the right wording in our adverts, we will confidently entice candidates before they search on generic job boards (we’ll also post their too).
Some examples of common blunders, with corrections:
Check use of acronyms; detail current general manufacturing practises (cGMP) instead of just cGMP
Check for unnecessary capitalisation especially for departments
Use and instead of &
Use “one”, “two” for number 1-9 and numbers for 10+
