What is Your Definition of Recruitment Marketing We bring you yet another panel of ten experts and this time were talking all things recruitment marketing. But what is recruitment marketing I hear you say? I mean, it sounds pretty obvious going by its title but is it? We asked our  experts to give us their own definition of it, see if you agree. Joe Shaker   Recruitment Marketing is how you present yourself to candidates â€" from the message, to the deployment and the candidate experience. . . Joe Shaker is the President of Shaker Recruitment Marketing. Maren Hogan Recruitment marketing is the natural, tactical extension of employer branding. It’s the art of attracting someone not just to the company but to a specific job and team. It includes everything that traditional marketing does including: traditional advertising, digital ads, copywriting, graphic design and audio-visual components. It should also be measured the same way we measure traditional marketing including how qualified a lead is and what it costs to get a conversion. Maren Hogan  is CEO and Founder of Red Branch Media.

For us, this definition has taken a beating in recent years, with the recruitment industry more competitive than ever, marketing has been brought in to explore new ways to attract talent and assist in the construction of employer brand. If I were to define the new age of recruitment marketing I would describe it as the ‘Talent Acquisition Toolbox which cannot be described as a single activity, but more a range of evolutionary practices which can adapt to meet the needs of a growing business, these are likely track the marketing practices of much larger and more sophisticated organisations. Mark Cavanagh is the Marketing Manager at The One Group. Charlotte Jones Recruitment Marketing  is how an organization attracts, connects and engages with talent to convey the value of the company as an employer.  Recruitment marketing activities are all about creating meaningful, long-term experiences with prospective employees, current employees and exiting employees as they are the target audience of all activities. Much like marketing or product management, recruitment marketing should be managed as a business strategy that’s aligned with human capital strategiesâ€"enabling business profitability and success.
