Your career page is your front door for digital recruiting. It’s where you catch the attention of candidates and engage them.

The 2 top-level factors you want to consider are:

These 2 factors are something all 10 career page examples (below) do a great job with. Let’s dive in:

Aetna

  • Headline: “Transform health” grabs the candidate’s attention and is superimposed on an authentic and professional feature image.
  • Above-the-Fold job search: There’s no doubt the next step they want candidates to take is to search for jobs.
  • Parent company (if applicable): Aetna makes it clear they are a CVS Health company, this magnifies the employer brand because candidates can make that connection to a more visible brand.

OneSource Virtual

  • Headline: “Be a Part of Something Bigger” is a great one.
  • Media for locations: Click on each location and see a spectacular pic of the setting. Clicking through the “join the team” button takes candidates to a specific set of jobs in that city/state.
  • Employee testimonials: Large with full names and titles of employees. This promotes transparency and credibility.

Xapo

  • Great Headline and Sub-Headline: It’s plain good ‘ole copywriting yet not often used on career sites. Notice how they mention “work remotely” in the headline, this should automatically engage those looking for remote jobs (especially millennials).
  • Awesome feature and supporting images: Support the values of a diverse company.
  • Clear call-to-action: The “JOIN US” button is front and center above-the-fold.
  • Mission: They mention their mission early on. It’s surprising how hard it is to find the mission statement on many career sites. Candidates love this!
