13 YEARS LUCKY FOR SOME - it could be you!
BRIDJOBS 2005-2018: EASTYORKSHIREJOBS.COM
This is the true story of a big shop and a little shop in Bridlington. In January 2007 the big shop put two tiny posters in their window advertising for staff. Due to lack of response, about one month later they replaced the two tiny posters with two gigantic posters, in fact this time so big they just about filled the whole of one window! A neighbouring little shop, had a similar retail vacancy featured on this website at the same time. In less than twelve hours the little shop asked for the advert to be removed due to the response and the position was filled. Those two gigantic posters in the window of the big shop remained in place for many weeks after, in fact one remained there a total of four months for all the world to see, that is of course if you happened to pass by!
The above incident prompted us to do a survey soon after:
We asked 1750 people at random in Bridlington town centre the following question: If you were looking for a new job locally, where would you start your search?
The answers we received were as follows:
987 said BRIDJOBS. 362 said Bridlington Free Press. 233 said Job Centre Plus. 168 said another source.
Undeniable proof that our profile was higher locally than all other recruitment options put together.
ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME YOU BECAME PART OF OUR SUCCESS AND NOW AS A NEW CUSTOMER GET YOUR SECOND JOB VACANCY ADVERTISEMENT FOR FREE (SEE BELOW).
WE CAN ALL MAKE OUR OWN LUCK BY TAKING THE RELEVANT OPPORTUNITIES AS THEY COME ALONG, SO DO SOME THINGS DIFFERENT FOR 2018 AND POSSIBLY SAVE LOTS OF MONEY IN THE PROCESS TOO, AS WHEN PAYING TO ADVERTISE HERE FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME YOU THEN GET YOUR SECOND ADVERT AT NO CHARGE.
