Copywriting Training

After working in recruitment for nearly 20 years, I thought I knew a thing or two about marketing jobs. This course has taught me a stack of new information that I'll be putting to immediate use in my job ads. It is easy to follow, it's presented well and rammed with fantastic content recruiters at every level will learn from. I highly recommend it.

I'd been looking forward to attending this course for what seemed like forever. It is exactly what every recruiter needs. It is informative, with great examples and very well thought out to be based online. I feel like I am equipped now to go away and write an advert that will attract candidates for those hard-to-fill roles.

Loved this training - have been waiting for Mitch to come to South Africa for many years. This is nearly as good as live. Thanks so much for great content and delivered in a really easy way!

I hate a course that is practised and repeated jargon - and this really isn't that. This is about you, writing better adverts and you finding candidates that want the job you offer. I still have the tip sheet on my desk and refer to it every time I work on an advert.

Every morning, I'm sure you look at all the other adverts that recruiters are running as part of your routine. I know I do. And 95% of them are terrible. "My client...", "fantastic opportunity...", blah blah blah... words none of us actually read. And you have to pick through 4 paragraphs of guff to the 4 or 5 key words or lines that actually tell you anything different about this opportunity. This course will help you to redesign the way you write your adverts. So if you were a candidate not necessarily looking for a new job, you'd probably want to know more about this one. Just in case. And it works. As with all these types of courses, you'll only get out what you put in. Don't skim it and don't disengage with the interactive parts - you won't regret it. Definitely worth applying to do.

Everyone on our team has done this course and now we write good. In all seriousness, it was two of us the first time and it was so good, it's now mandatory to go once you've joined nineDots. Creative writing adds quite a lot of value in a somewhat beige industry. We all make regular placements from our adverts - to the point that if we don't get suitable candidates from an ad, we're extremely disappointed.

Mitch and Jackie do a great job in deconstructing all the layers recruitment has had added on and bring us back to basics. It's common sense and places human interaction at the forefront rather than generic jargon. Really set me on my way to billing more but also reviewing how I communicated and interacted with people, not just via an advert but in person also. It pays to listen and absorb the information in this course rather than listening to some of the managers the industry has. Can't recommend this course enough. Superb and essential for anyone involved in our sector.

If you're serious about a career in recruitment, then improving your ability to write persuading ad copy is something you have to do. Jackie & Mitch deliver a fantastic online course which will provide you with the necessary info and guidance to do just that. By not taking this course, you'll continue to write shit ads. So sign up today (unless you recruit in the Digital Marketing space!)

This training course helped steer my approach to producing more effective and individually driven content. The key aspects challenged the way I thought and gave me a greater appreciation for the English language, copywriting and getting into the mind of the reader. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to take their writing/advertising skills up a few levels.

When I learned of the Copywriting for Recruiters course, I was beyond delighted as I wasn't a fan of standard job ads. I knew I didn't want to produce those anymore, but I wasn't sure what/how to change and where to start. The information is presented clearly and with humour. The combination of text, short assignments and videos is great. I love how you can complete the course at your own pace. It took me longer than 3 hours to complete the course, but that's mainly because I prefer making notes while following a course, it helps me take it all in. Another plus is that, as a non-English native, I can also say that everything is very comprehensible and the tips stay valid in other languages and countries. Both Jackie and Mitch present several videos and it's clear that they are very passionate and knowledgeable about the subject. It's a joy to watch and translates very well through the computer screen. It makes you even more enthusiastic to complete the course and use the tips in real life.

Over the years, I've attended a LOT of L&D programs/courses and they usually don't connect with me the way this one did. Highly engaging throughout, with clever use of video, as well as very credible content and learnings. Highly recommend this to all recruitment professional regardless of how long they've been "in the game"!
