WEBINAR
Reverse Marketing with Intent

Target Group
Frontline staff that engage with employers.
Reverse Marketers
Summary
In this webinar Matt Luttrell will discuss reverse marketing strategies to place priority jobactive and DES job seekers into the hidden job market. The focus is on making contact with specific employers. It will explore getting the job seeker and employment services practitioners ready to make a reverse marketing call, and how to manage the call including handling objections.
The focus of this webinar is not on vacancy development for job matching. So what can you expect? It will cover becoming “one” with the employer so that we understand the fit with the employee and the new opportunity that presents. Reverse marketing isn’t all about providers getting a placement, it’s much bigger than that! The placement is the result – the real key is understanding what the employer is looking for and matching a strong candidate to an opportunity.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
• Preparation is key
• Be in a positive mindset
• What approaches have the best results
• What to look for, what to listen for
• What is the best way to respond to objections

Understand How Online Applications and Recruitment Databases are Screening OUT your Job Seekers' Resumes
Wednesday 13 February 2019 | 3pm AEDT (2:30pm in SA, 2pm in QLD, 1:30pm in NT and 12 noon in WA)
Target Group
Frontline staff
Summary
Have you ever pulled together a great job application, flicked it off, waited, waited and waited, and received no reply ? These days many organisations use HR Software to screen out your documents based on formatting, lack of key words and other things that you may not be aware of.
This topic is particularly relevant to those consultants who are assisting job seekers with online applications. The change from human eyes reviewing the initial application and computer software analysing the application has changed the way successful applications are formatted. This webinar will provide an understanding of those changes and how they are impacting on your job seekers success. It will make you look at your resume templates in a whole new light.
Please note that the content is always being updated and attendees will receive a list of important links.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
- An understanding of how online applications are processed by screening software – essential to know so your clients aren’t screened out on the first pass
- The importance of key words in your job seeker’s application – and matching these to the advertisement or industry that they are applying for
- Formatting and making things pretty – why this doesn’t work with online applications
- Keeping it simple – how irrelevant or complex information on your online resume or application can be hurting your client’s chances of ending up on the ‘yes’ list
