How Promoting a Job Works

We’ll only consume your daily average budget when candidates view, click, or apply to your job posting. The cost-per-click will vary based on several factors, including opportunities to maximize visibility, as well as candidate views, clicks, and applies. However, you will never be charged beyond the total spend indicated through your promotion selection.​

1

Quickly and Easily Post a Job

Our new platform is designed to help you quickly create a compelling job posting, equipped with fewer steps and expert tips along the way.

2

Choose a Daily Budget

This is the average you will spend per day over the course of 30 days. Your daily average budget is consumed when candidates view, click, or apply to your job posting.

3

Manages Your Applicants

Our newly designed dashboard allows you to easily manage and contact candidates directly from the platform, so you can manage your recruiting in one place.

4

Use Your Monthly Credits

Your Monster+ Pro Subscription comes with credits that you can use when candidates click your job postings, when you view resumes, or contact candidates. (2 credits/$2 per resume view/action)

What are Monster Credits?

Monster Credits are included in your Monster+ Pro Plan, and align with your monthly subscription amount, 1 credit = $1, and expire monthly. Think of Monster Credits like currency that you can leverage to cover the costs incurred when someone clicks on your job postings or when you view or contact a candidate in our resume database.

If you don’t have enough credits to cover your costs for a given month, we’ll bill your payment method on file for the remainder of what you owe. You can track your Monster Credits in near-real time and we’ll also send you an email when you are getting low so you can make any necessary adjustments.

If you’re searching within our candidate database, one view or action equals two credits ($2). With job postings, you won’t spend more than your allocated budget for the time-period specified, but there may be fluctuations per day where our platform may spend less or more than the daily budget for that day in order to drive the most performance for you. If you use your budget only for job postings, you’ll receive all the benefits of Monster+ Standard and more!

Have additional or more complex hiring needs?

We partner with organizations of all sizes to offer customizable solutions catered to your specific needs.​
Whether you need dedicated campaigns to fill specific roles, help powering your Veteran Recruitment efforts, need to amplify your employer brand or integrate Monster with your Applicant Tracking System, we can help you find talent, fast.​
