GET STAFFED
CAREER POSTER

* This table is based on website information. Last updated in 2025.

At the core of most fixed fee recruiters service, is job board advertising, and here at Get Staffed we’re no different.

The key to a successful job advertising campaign is your coverage – getting your advert seen by the most amount candidates gives you the best chance of hiring.

While both providers include popular job boards like Monster, Totaljobs, Reed and Jobsite, at Get Staffed we go further. If we compare Career Poster’s “Premium” option with our “Enhanced” package, for just £4 more you get a sponsored listing on Indeed, LinkedIn, Guardian, Adzuna and even S1 Jobs if you’re vacancy is in Scotland. These extra boards drive more than 36% of our applications, and 41% of our clients hires!

On top of that, we include a targeted CV database search as part of the package, meaning we use various CV databases to find passive candidates who are a good match for your position.

In our opinion, that sounds like £4 well spent!

Pricing

One of the main advantages of using any flat fee recruitment advertising provider is the cost. With the main aim for most providers being to help businesses advertise their roles and recruit without the traditionally expensive fees that are associated with recruitment.

Both Get Staffed Online Recruitment and Career Poster offer highly competitive pricing, with three similar price points…

Career Poster are one of the few flat fee recruiters with a price point around £200. Their Standard package is £195 vs our Essentials option costing £199. But with our option you get Reed, Talent.com and Adzuna which should help increase applications.

Again, Career Poster’s Premium and Branded packages are very similar in price to equivalent packages offered by Get Staffed, just £4 in it per package but not only do ours include extra job board coverage, they also include a number of tools in our ATS to help you spot the best candidates quickly and easily.

Additionally, unlike lots of our competitors, we offer flexible monthly subscription plans, allowing you to spread the cost over 12 months (which we’re sure will please your finance team)!

Candidate management

An important part of all recruitment processes is how you receive and manage candidates after they have applied, something most fixed fee recruitment companies offer as part of their service.

Both Career Poster and us have various ways for your to collect applications, both offer a free ATS account or you can choose to have CV’s sent directly to your inbox, redirect candidates to your existing recruitment system or careers page.

Managing candidates is a crucial part of the hiring process, and the free in-house applicant tracking system (ATS) we offer is where we really stand out…

AI-Powered Screening: Automatically identify the best candidates, saving you hours of manual review.
Willo Integration: Follow up with candidates using structured video or text-based interviews, making shortlisting easier and more efficient.
Unlimited Users: Our ATS allows unlimited users with custom access settings, making collaboration within your team seamless.
Collaborative Notes: Tag team members, leave feedback, and make decisions together, all in one place.

We have used Get Staffed several times as our business has expanded and found the system to be easy to use and monitor. They ensure our advert gets exposure over the main property portals and collate the information we get back from applicants, to make it easier to sort through, saving us time and money. We will use the service again.
