So, you’ve jumped on board with Jobtag to post your video ad – Congratulations! Compared with a regular text ad, your video ad now stands a better chance of being viewed by more prospective candidates. So, what’s next? Well, to get your ad in front of the right candidates you’ll need a promotion strategy.
On most social media sites, the best way to get coverage is by using hashtags. Hashtags are categorised by a word or phrase preceded by a hash, or the number/pound sign (#) and are used to group and search for posts relating to a specific topic. Effectively, they are labels which make it easier for users to find content relevant to their interests.

Tip #2. Hashtag the job location
Tip #3. Include a link to your job ad
Tip #4. Tag relevant job-related accounts
Tip #5. Include a job benefit
Tip #6. Add a hashtag unique to your company
Tip #7. Add a call to action
