A broader network than standard multi-posting

Recruitment Genius held their £299 price point for a long time, using unbranded adverts to keep the price down. We offer a similar product but include Totaljobs and the government’s FindaJob site for just £249+VAT.

Or for businesses looking to target specialist sectors or satisfy corporate ESG goals, our Branded Pro package helps you show off your employer brand and reach a more diverse talent pool through Guardian Jobs and the Diversity Jobs Group.

Premium branding without the premium price

Our Core package at £249+VAT offers more than Recruitment Genius and saves you £50.

Alternatively keep the £299 budget and upgrade to our Branded package. Get your company name and logo on all of the major UK job boards including CV Library, Reed, Totaljobs and Indeed. Transparency can help attract better candidates more quickly, who are motivated to work for your company, not just the job itself.

Our Branded Pro package at £349+VAT is our ultimate tier designed for maximum coverage and to help target historically disadvantaged sections of the job market through our partnership with the Diversity Jobs Group and their nine different job boards.

If you hire regularly throughout the year, our subscription options can reduce these prices even further, alongside flexible monthly payment plans for high-volume recruitment.

Candidate management built around your team

Navigating piles of CVs shouldn’t require complex admin. We provide an intuitive, in-house Applicant Tracking System (ATS) with every single campaign to help you sort, screen, and select top talent with ease.

Unlike other ATS platforms that penalise growth with per-seat licensing, Get Staffed gives you unlimited users. You can add hiring managers, HR teams and department heads into the loop at no extra cost.

With SMS and email modules built directly into your dashboard, communicating with candidates is simple. In addition, AI-assisted shortlisting and optional video screening questions are designed to save your HR team hours of manual filtering, allowing you to focus on the best applicants.

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.

Recruitment Genius vs Get Staffed FAQs

Answers to the most common questions relating to the services of Recruitment Genius and how they differ with Get Staffed Online Recruitment.

Recruitment Genius, one of the first flat-fee recruiters, permanently ceased operations in 2025.

Get Staffed serves as a direct and enhanced alternative. We offer multi-board job posting across the core UK channels previously used by Recruitment Genius, alongside expanded coverage on platforms such as Find a Job, CV Library, S1 Jobs, and the Diversity Jobs Group.

Recruitment Genius charged £299 for unbranded listings. Get Staffed delivers a comparable unbranded campaign (Core) for just £249+VAT, saving you £50. Alternatively, you can keep your original £299 budget and upgrade to our Branded package, which adds your company name, logo, and CV Library access to the campaign. See our pricing page here.

The best platform combines broad reach with targeted visibility. While many basic systems only post job adverts to standard aggregators, an effective multi-job board platform should distribute vacancies simultaneously across mainstream job boards (Indeed, Reed, and Totaljobs), regional platforms (such as S1 Jobs in Scotland), and public employment services (Find a Job).

Get Staffed combines these networks with a multi-user Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to create a comprehensive hiring solution tailored for busy UK businesses and internal HR teams.

Yes. Our Branded and Branded Pro packages include fully branded campaigns using your company logo and employer branding to help attract the best talent.
