Review:

Planning Institute Australia is a national organization with a niche job board for local planning professionals, offering a range of resources for both employers and job seekers in the industry.

While the site provides a relatively straightforward job posting process with key services like social media exposure and featured listings, it is costlier than some of its competitors, such as CO-architecture and Careersindesign.

Pros:

  • Planning Institute Australia primarily caters to job seekers in the local planning industry.
  • The platform offers both a classic and premium job posting package to suit different budgets and hiring needs.
  • Jobs are added to the fortnightly PIA Jobs E-bulletin, which has over 6,500 subscribers.
  • Listings are shared to the site's social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
  • The premium package gives job posts prominent placement on the platform's website.

Cons:

  • Planning Institute Australia does not offer a free job posting option.
  • The platform is more costly than some of its competitors.
  • The site does not offer additional recruitment tools, such as an employer dashboard or branding services.

Reputation:
