Adweek Jobs

Review:

First published in 1979, Adweek has become a leading source of industry news and insights for the global marketing and advertising communities. Their job board offers a range of recruitment tools, such as partner network syndication, exposure through newsletters, and a resume database, to help employers streamline the hiring process.

While Adweek Jobs is a feature-rich recruitment site with an international presence, the platform's presence in Australia is very limited. A local marketing job board may better serve Australian employers looking to hire local marketing professionals.

Pros:

• Adweek Jobs gives employers access to an international audience of advertising professionals.
• The Ultimate Reach plan distributes job ads to Adweek's partner network of job boards.
• The platform features a CV database of candidates for employers to browse through.
• Listings can be included in Adweek's newsletter.
• Job seekers can filter jobs by location, job category, and career sector to connect with suitable employers.
• Job posts are live for up to 60 days.
• Employers can create branded company profiles to help attract candidates.
• CVs matching job ad criteria can be automatically emailed to employers.
• Employers can track and manage candidates from their online dashboard.

Cons:

• There is no free job posting option.
• Job posts are not promoted on the platform's social media channels.
• Pricing is only available in U.S. dollars.
• The website features very few Australian vacancies.
• There are no local offices or customer support channels in Australia.

Reputation:

We were unable to find any online reviews of Adweek Jobs. However, the platform has been used by a number of prominent companies, such as Samsung, Walmart, and Matchnode, to fill vacancies.

Adweek Jobs vs. Australian Marketing Institute (AMI):

The AMI is the largest network of marketers in Australia, making it the better option for local employers, as Adweek Jobs has a very small presence in the country. The organization is well-established and features social media promotion and a resume database, but lacks the global reach offered by Adweek Jobs for remote positions.

Adweek Jobs vs. The Loop:

The Loop is a much more affordable platform for employers, charging A$99.00 +GST for a single job post, whereas Adweek Jobs costs US$299.00 for their standard plan. The platform also caters exclusively to the Australian job market; however, it lacks a resume database and the international reach that Adweek Jobs offers.

Adweek Jobs vs. Screenhub:

Screenhub caters to the Australian film and television industry, whereas Adweek Jobs focuses on advertising and marketing roles. While there is some overlap in their audiences, Screenhub stands out as the better platform for local employers, as Adweek Jobs has a very limited presence in Australia and is also the costlier option.
