The job posting: Sales consultant for Papernest
It begins with a description of Papernest's values and goals with a little referential humor ("They have a dream").
The candidate knows right away what project they are getting into.
We also appreciate the fact that the recruitment process is detailed in the offer which allows us to be transparent with the candidates.
Finally, a big highlight of the ad is the presentation of the team the candidate will be working with if recruited. The whole visual and human universe presented on this page are consistent with the values put forward.
Good ideas:
The job ad: Hotel Associat for Marriott
This Instagram job ad is short and simple but very effective. It begins by describing the ideal candidate - warm, outgoing, genuine, passionate and inspiring.
Then she casually mentions the job opportunity and focuses on the unique benefits and perks offered by the Marriott company.
The best part? This job posting visually shows the "in-kind" benefits offered by the company, and doesn't just tell candidates about them. Take a look: 👀

The job posting: All those offered by Hubspot
Hubspot announced on Instagram (again) that it has won the "Best place to work" label, which recognizes companies that focus on Quality of Work Life (QWL).
They included a call to action in that same post and invited interested candidates to apply for their open positions and become part of their incredible company culture for which they have defined a specific code.
Good ideas:
The job posting: Salesman for Bagelstein
This job posting targets its ideal candidates perfectly. It uses both the professional approach and humor to get their attention and make them laugh.
Beyond the well-being it can bring when interpreted positively, humor is good because it is of the free gift variety.
But also because there is humor recognition: that of the intelligence of the other person who understands that you are being humorous, and that of their appreciation.
Good Ideas:
The job ad: Talent Acquisition Manager for IBM (Offer since withdrawn, alas)
We loved how IBM turned its ordinary, boring text job ad into a stunning online infographic.
This visual job posting engages and informs its target audience at a glance, allowing candidates to quickly and easily assess whether they would be a good fit for a position.
The good idea:
The job posting: General Insurance Agent with AXA
This video job posting is simple and attractive. It includes the general presentation of the job, a description of the ideal candidate, and a typical day on the job.
All of this in a video of less than 2 minutes.

The right idea:
The job posting: Logic Developer for Verizon
Decidedly, Instagram is successful!
We love this coded job ad on Verizon's Instagram. By posting a graphic to challenge their target audience in a fun and bold way, they engage candidates who feel challenged(a hallmark of this candidate persona).
What a great way to engage their target audience! See for yourself:
The right idea:
Bonus:
Google is decidedly playful... In a previous campaign, the giant decided to launch a recruitment for which the applications were necessarily qualitative! The idea?
If a user typed the search "python lambda function list comprehension" on Google, he or she would see his or her screen split in two to reveal a game proposal.
But what a game! Only knowledgeable developers could be able to get through the various stages of testing.
And that was precisely the goal! The few who managed to pass the 5 stages of the test within 48 hours (per stage), were redirected to a contact form, connecting them with Google recruiters.
And that was precisely the goal!
Ingenious!"
The job posting: Cook for Plantxa Restaurant
The Plantxa restaurant shared an interesting job posting on its Instagram. By putting the employees in a situation where they are working, it makes it easier for the candidate to project themselves.
Good ideas:
The job ad: Finance and accounting position for Disney
This time, the social network used is Facebook.
We love that this job posting doesn't look like a job posting at all!
Disney regularly shares photos and quotes or videos of its employees talking about their role, its challenges and its wins.
Disney shares employee stories and simply adds a call to action in the form of an invitation to apply. (Hence the importance of CTAs)
So simple, yet so effective.
Disney really knows how to master its narrative!
Good ideas:
The job offer: Many jobs for IKEA
This time, let's head to YouTube!"
We love how IKEA has associated its (celebrity) product with its job postings!
IKEA used their cardboard boxes used to package their furniture as a direct marketing channel to recruit staff.
They created a job ad titled "Assemble Your Future" in the same style as its typical Flatpack assembly instructions and inserted them into their furniture boxes.
Isn't that great, admit it?
