Jobiak, provider of the industry’s first AI-based recruitment marketing platform specifically for Google for Jobs, today launched its “Indeed Swap” program to help the nearly 13,000 staffing and recruiting companies in North America impacted by Indeed.com’s new policy that no longer allows these firms to post jobs to its site for free.
The new Jobiak program enables staffing agencies to get started posting their jobs to Google for Jobs, which doesn’t require a fee, quickly and with minimal effort. Jobiak is providing qualified staffing agencies up to 25 job postings for free. The company is also offering a free migration service that will allow staffing firms to begin replacing Indeed traffic immediately.
Indeed’s new policy, first announced in October 2018 and going into effect today, requires all staffing agencies and recruitment-based companies in the U.S. and Canada to pay a sponsorship fee for job listings in order to receive visibility. Among the thousands of staffing firms posting to Indeed, Jobiak’s research identifies 19 companies each with more than 1,000 jobs currently posted to Indeed representing a total of more than 50,000 jobs. Just five firms – Adecco, Maxim Healthcare, Cybercoders, Accountable Health Staffing, and Kelly Services – account for 30,000+ of those 50,000 jobs.
