Target Jobs
Graduate Recruitment
Description and aims
Target Jobs wanted to contact a number of penultimate year students, studying twelve pre-identified degree courses. As part of their campaign they contacted Northampton Careers and Employability Service to talk about how they could arrange contact.
About Target Jobs
Target Jobs is a recruitment and advice service that caters specifically for graduates looking for jobs and undergraduates seeking work experience.
How the project is being undertaken
Northampton Careers Service could upload text message, on behalf of Target Jobs, which was delivered directly into the in-boxes of their pre-determined client group. Target supplied the text for the message, along with accompanying posters and other publicity material to support their on-campus campaign. The Careers Service uploaded and delivered the message to the target group within 24 hours.
Impacts and benefits
Target needed to contact final year students on pre-identified degree courses as they has a range of opportunities for graduates with particular degree disciplines – including business, engineering, marketing, HR and social sciences and History. Their reason for contacting us was because our software could pick out those that matched these criteria Target Jobs got a good response to the message from their specified cohort of students – and explained that this had saved Target Jobs time, money and generated a ‘focused’ response.
