Seek’s New Partner

Wow! I’ve just happened across an exciting innovation in the online recruiting space. Thinkresources.com.au is offering an instructional on how to place jobs on Seek.com.au. Talk about value for money. Once you’ve written your ad., they’ll approve it, and they’ll place it live on Seek within an hour – but wait, there’s more! The ad. will be placed for 30% less than what you’d pay going directly through Seek. (see here)

I’m so excited and can’t wait to spread the news to my casual-rate paying colleagues. Why on earth would they elect to place their ads. directly when they can do business with these “proud partners” of seek.com.au (sneaky buggers, Seek, why no press release about this new partnership?):

As proud partners of many online job portals such as seek.com.au – we provide assistance to our clients with producing top knotch advertising on the latest advertising mediums.
With savings of up to 30% off the generic prices and with valuable advise such as optional proof read this is an opportunity for your business to save money whilst attracting great staff!

Personally, I wouldn’t want to access a communication service that can’t ensure its own copy is free of spelling errors. But maybe that’s just me – I’m sure there’ll be loads of clients willing to forgo accuracy for such a fantastic saving. Top notch.

Note: Relish in glory while you can, Think Resources. What were you thinking?
