Ep. 7: No More ‘Post and Pray’

No More ‘Post and Pray’

Or listen on:

About the Episode

Colleges and universities are finding out, the hard way, why they can no longer “post and pray,” that is post job openings and pray that qualified candidates will fill the applicant tracking systems. On this episode, we went straight to a major source to find out what kind of traction higher education job postings are getting. Kevin Varner of HigherEdJobs joined “I Wanna Work There!” to discuss the increase that the website has seen in postings from campuses across the country, how site traffic has changed, and what institutions should do to attract the candidates that they want.
