Music Week Jobs

Review:

While Music Week Jobs has an international reach, its primary audience is U.K.-based, making it a good option for Canadian employers seeking international talent. However, there are better options, such as the Canadian Live Music Association Job Board, for reaching a local audience.

Music Week Jobs does not make pricing for its job posting services readily available online. Unlike several competitors, it does not mention any free options. The site does, however, mention that they offer different channels to promote job listings, including social media and email.

Pros:

• The site caters to the international music industry, making it suitable for targeted hiring.
• Jobs can be promoted via email.
• The Job Spotlight placement offers increased visibility.
• The site mentions that jobs can be promoted on social media.
• Employers can include their company logos in job postings.

Cons:

• The site does not mention a free job posting plan.
• There is no online self-posting feature, resume database, or applicant tracking system.
• The site is not available in French.
• Pricing is not readily available on the website.
