Jobs Abroad Bulletin

Review:

The Jobs Abroad Bulletin publishes an international blog and newsletter for traveling and seasonal workers in search of industry insights, community forums, and new job opportunities. The platform's free plan allows employers to easily reach a targeted network of candidates at a fraction of the cost.

While the Jobs Abroad Bulletin is a valuable resource for both local and international recruitment efforts, it is missing some key hiring tools, such as CV searches, social media promotion, and job ad distribution, which are offered by its competitors Travel Weekly Jobs and Anywork Anywhere.

Pros:

• Employers can use the job board to advertise a wide variety of part-time work, internships, and volunteer opportunities.
• The platform offers a free job posting plan.
• The Jobs Abroad Bulletin has a premium posting package that includes a placement in its newsletter for added reach.
• Prominent companies that have used the job board include Habitat for Humanity, Sunsail, and Au Pair in America.
• The job posting process is simple.
• Employers with many vacancies to fill can purchase a discounted featured listing option that includes 12 job slots.
• The job board is more affordable than several niche alternatives, such as Leisurejobs.

Cons:

• Vacancies are not immediately published and it may take a few days before they appear on the job board.
• The platform lacks a searchable CV database, applicant tracking tools, and candidate matching services.
• Listings aren't shared to the site's social media pages or distributed to other job boards.

Jobs Abroad Bulletin vs. Travel Weekly Jobs:

Like Jobs Abroad Bulletin, Travel Weekly Jobs advertises seasonal roles to a niche local audience. However, only the former facilitates international postings. While Travel Weekly Jobs charges £295.00 +VAT per post, Jobs Abroad Bulletin offers a free job posting service, making it the more affordable option.

Jobs Abroad Bulletin vs. The Working Holiday Club Jobs:

Jobs Abroad Bulletin and The Working Holiday Club Jobs both allow employers to post seasonal and travel-focused roles, but the latter stands out with a searchable CV database and employer branding. While The Working Holiday Club Jobs only targets a local and Canadian audience, the Jobs Abroad Bulletin has a strong global presence.

Jobs Abroad Bulletin vs. Anywork Anywhere:

Compared to The Jobs Abroad Bulletin's free posting plan, Anywork Anywhere is significantly costlier with a starting price of €99.00 per post. However, the latter's higher price tag ensures employers have access to more robust recruitment tools, such as social media promotion and dedicated account management.
