Other places you can advertise vacancies
We recommend posting job vacancies in multiple places that reach your intended audience for the highest chance of filling vacancies you have – some of those places may include social media. While they’re not specifically designed as job recruitment sites, websites that have community message boards, such as Neighbourly and community Facebook groups can be an effective way to promote job vacancies you need to fill.
If you search for Facebook groups containing the suburb where you’re looking for workers, plus the terms ‘buy’, ‘sell’, ‘trade’ or ‘jobs’, you may find more people visit the job listing you post if you link to them using local community Facebook or Neighbourly groups.
For safety reasons, we recommend that you don’t use anybody’s personal information when posting to Facebook or Neighbourly.
