I’M THINKING ABOUT POSTING A JOB HERE…

After I submit the job posting form, what happens next?

Don’t worry. Your job will not be posted online automatically.

  1. Fill out the job posting form to describe your new job opportunity.
  2. We’ll reply with a quote within one business day for approval and payment options.
  3. Then, we’ll post the job online and tweet it to the masses.
  4. After that, we’ll design a print ad send a proof for your approval and publish it in the next Wednesday’s newspaper.
  5. Need to renew? We’ll check in after a week to see how we can help.

How much does it cost to post a job on your site?

The cost of your job posting is based on the size of your print display ad in Seven Days newspaper. A one-week posting can cost as little as $80 or as much as $1,850, but the average campaign costs about $450.

michelle-brownAccount executive Michelle Brown will provide a quote based on the information your provide on the “Post a Job” form. Depending on the diversity of your job postings (multiple departments, deadlines, etc.), you may want to combine your offerings into a single print ad or publish each opportunity separately for maximum exposure.

More questions about pricing? We recommend filling out the “Post a Job” form to get a fast and friendly quote within one business day. If you’d rather talk directly to a human, please contact Michelle Brown at 802-865-1020, ext. 21, or michelle@sevendaysvt.com. She’s always happy to help!
