I had completed my hiring for the spring season in our environmental education program, training was done and the first schools were on the way. Out of the blue, one Instructor quit and one moved away, and here I was very short staffed for our spring season. In less than a week I received enough applications to fill our needed positions. I appreciate the time and energy put forth by Mike and the Backdoorjobs crew to make this a simple and satisfying experience.

Web Listing Features

Whether your choice is a basic or enhanced web package, a lot of energy, effort and inspiration is put into your ad presentation—plus you'll be working with a real person and not automated forms. We know that the personal touches and small details are important. Bottom line, we want you to be as happy as we are when your listing is uploaded to our site.

Highlights

We'll completely do the write-up of your job postings and assist with all revisions. (It's always nice to have a second pair of eyes reviewing your job postings!) Of course if you already have an ad that has worked for you, we'll definitely use that as well.

Your listings will generally be posted online within 24 hours of receiving your submission, sending visuals/logo and making payment on your account (enhanced listings take a bit longer).

Within days your program is indexed by Google and all the other major search engines providing you with targeted site results. This adds a whole new searching capability for our visitors and better connections for you!

Banner Ads

Additional Products
Pump your program up with a home page or channel headline feature spot. You create the banner (or we'll take care of it for you!) and we'll provide the visitor boost to your site. On average, this will double/triple the number of click-thrus to your program. If you're interested in banner/channel headline advertising, please connect with us for availability.

Happy Campers

Our farm never had so many qualified applicants as we have had with backdoorjobs. Sometimes they had a lot of experience, but mostly they had the right work ethic and approach to farming life. We found both of our Apprentices through Backdoorjobs this year, and plan to return next year.

Backdoorjobs.com does a great job helping us market our job openings. They make it a big deal that we have a job opening... it's almost like a news story on their website. Excellent customer service.

Throughout the years Backdoorjobs.com has been the single most effective form of advertisement that has continuously brought us some of the most giving, loving and hard working interns from all over the country. Again I cannot thank you enough; the work you are doing is helping people (not only interns but the recipients of the interns work) beyond what you could ever imagine.
–With respect and appreciation, Maria L., Director, St. Elizabeth Shelter

The Northwest Youth Corps interviews over 500 people to fill its staff positions every year—and large numbers of those applicants have come to us from Backdoorjobs.com. Michael always meets our needs in a very timely manner, and is willing to go the extra mile to help us develop our job announcements in both mediums. It's a no-brainer to continue to advertise with Backdoorjobs.com each year. Thanks for providing such a great service!
–Carrie C., Northwest Youth Corps

I just wanted to let you know that we're very happy with the response to our ad on Backdoorjobs.com. We have lots of returning staff this year, so not a lot of positions to fill... but it's nice to have dialed into a way to get our unique opportunity out there. In general, the response has been strongest from the cream of the crop young people that we like to hire! It's a great avenue for us, and I appreciate your work to make the process painless and inexpensive for me.
–Denise V., Glacier Park Boat Company
