Recruitment marketing spend isn’t translating to qualified applicants

The situation this course is for

Many talent acquisition teams run campaigns that look good but don’t move the needle. Careers pages, social posts, and employer branding content generate activity, but not applications. The gap lies in strategy-to-funnel alignment , a systemic issue now affecting mid-cycle hiring performance across the sector.

Who this is for

Talent acquisition leaders in mid-sized firms using recruitment marketing tools but lacking conversion analytics

Who this is not for

Individual job seekers, executive recruiters focused on retained search, or firms without an active careers site or CRM

What you walk away with

  • Map recruitment marketing activities to funnel conversion points
  • Diagnose drop-off points in candidate journey
  • Build a self-assessment engine for campaign ROI
  • Align content strategy with role-specific applicant intent
  • Implement a feedback loop between marketing and hiring managers
