s1jobs.com has been voted the Best Regional Jobsite at the National Online Recruitment Awards. This marks the seventh victory since our first win in 2003, and makes s1jobs the most frequent winner in this category since the awards began in 2001.

The National Online Recruitment Awards were created to acknowledge and reward excellence in online recruitment practice. Importantly with the NORA’s it’s members of the public who nominate, with recruitment players being whittled down to five nominations within each category.  The finalists were then judged by a panel of online recruitment industry professionals.

Record visitors for s1jobs.com

Following the launch of the new campaign ‘s1jobs gives you the horn’, we have noticed traffic soar to the highest level since January 2016. Over 70,000 visitors were recorded on s1jobs in just one day (Wednesday 13th September) and a record number of 818,001 visited in September.

The campaign tagline sets to shock, cut through the crowded digital space and grab the attention and imagination of a younger digital audience. However, as the campaign progresses, the method in our madness is becoming more apparent.  Utilising the Unicorn, Scotland’s national animal, as the lynchpin of the campaign with stories of bravery, uniqueness and exceptionalism acts as powerful motivation for Scottish jobseekers to take the leap and find a better job.

This week sees the launch of the latest s1jobs’ brand advertising campaign, ‘s1jobs gives you the horn’.  As Scotland’s most successful recruitment platform, we have a reputation for humorous Scottish adverts and this is set to be no different.

Created with Glasgow Digital Agency, Bright Signals, the ad’s strapline ‘s1jobs gives you the horn’ is set to catch the attention and capture the imagination of our Scottish audience.  The advert depicts a bold, powerful Unicorn encouraging a jobseeker to ‘go on, search what they’re looking for, they will like it’.  The jobseeker is encouraged to be bold, brave and stand out, as Unicorns do, as they search s1jobs.com to discover a better job.
