past your site’s visual elements, then they will read your content. Poorly written copy is a huge turnoff to clients and candidates; therefore, you should invest in your site’s message.

Mobile
We have said this before and we will continue to enforce the importance of having a high-functioning mobile platform. A growing majority of internet traffic continues to travel on mobile platforms; therefore, the failure to meet consumers on this plane may prove to be the most egregious of recruiting website mistakes. It also may mean you never reach clients and candidates at all. And as Google has stated, they will give preference to sites with functioning mobile versions.

Call-To-Action
Missing or confusing call-to-actions may result in site visitors left without direction. So there is a reason this is the closer to our recruiting website mistakes. Call-to-actions are what encourages clients and candidates to click that “Contact Us” link and seek out your services.

How to Use Testimonials on a Recruiting Website to Build Trust and Win Business

check-in or post-placement process.
Many clients and candidates will be happy to help — they just need a gentle nudge and a little guidance on what you’re looking for. A short email prompt like:
“We’d love to share your feedback with future clients. Could you tell us what stood out about working together, or how our partnership helped achieve your goals?”
makes it easy for them to respond.
Avoiding Common Pitfalls
As valuable as testimonials are, they can backfire if handled poorly. Avoid these common mistakes:
- Using fake or overly vague testimonials: Nothing erodes trust faster than a quote that sounds made-up or too generic to be meaningful.
- Forgetting to update them: Fresh testimonials signal that your firm is active and effective today—not just two years ago.
- Neglecting permission: Always get explicit approval before publishing someone’s words, name or logo.
When handled with care, testimonials become an honest, powerful way to show the results you’re proud of.
Final Thoughts: Testimonials as Part of Your Brand Story
At their best, testimonials don’t just decorate your website—they strengthen it. They give voice to the companies and individuals who know your work, and they help future clients and candidates feel confident choosing you. When used thoughtfully, testimonials weave into your brand story, reminding visitors that you’re not just another recruiter; you’re a proven partner.

5 Things Your Recruiting Website Content is Missing
Cole Windler · Apr 26, 2017
The diversity of a recruitment website is vital to its survival in the digital ecosystem. However, recruiters who are already pressed for time to contact clients and candidates, maintaining that habitat can be more than impractical. It can be impossible. We often have clients whose web presence needs to be revitalized with modern design and more streamlined functions. The visual elements of the site are often obvious in terms of their need. Outdated pictures, amateur graphics and obsolete interfaces are typically apparent in their need for change. But even if your site has been given a facelift, your recruiting website content could still be giving away its age. The pitfalls in content are not always so apparent, but they can be just as dangerous as it pertains to the impression you leave clients. Here are 5 mistakes you might be making with your recruiting website content:
-
Do you know your audience?

If your clients make up 70% of your focus but only 50% of your home page content focuses on them, you should reconsider your recruiting website content approach. Make an honest assessment of who your audience is and apply a percentage to them, then see that you reflect that ratio in your website’s content.
