Good to know

Ask people to tag
“Know someone? Tag them” takes the post to people who don't follow you.
Ask only for what the job needs
Age, gender or looks don't belong in a job post: they put applicants off, and in many countries asking for them is illegal.
One channel
DM, email or in person: pick one and say it clearly so no application gets lost.

Frequently asked questions

What should a hiring post on Instagram include?

The role, the hours, what you offer, who you're looking for and how to apply, with a deadline if there is one.

Does posting jobs on Instagram work?

For a local business, yes: your followers know the place and share the post with people who might be interested. Ask them to tag someone.

Can I use these captions as they are?

Yes, they're made to copy. Swap the products, prices and dates for yours, and adjust the tone to how you talk to your audience.

Does Feedmakers write the caption for me?

Yes. Every post you create comes with a hook, caption, call to action and hashtags, in English, Spanish or both, from one line describing what you want to announce.
