Adzuna is a search engine for job advertisements that operates in 16 countries worldwide. Adzuna came to SourceCode Communications to drive top-tier business and trade coverage, with articles linking back to Adzuna.com to help with SEO initiatives. With no hard company news to work with, the team relied solely on proactive outreach.

WHAT WE DID

The SourceCode team had to get scrappy when it came to garnering proactive media opportunities. SourceCode actively monitored the news for topics related to HR, employment and the economy, as well as timely events and holidays such as the monthly Bureau of Labor Statistics jobs report, employment tips for students ahead of graduation season, and most patriotic jobs in celebration of July 4th. 

Leveraging employment data from Adzuna, the team positioned the company’s spokespeople as expert sources around these topics. The team also recommended publishing media alerts on Adzuna.com for reporters to link back to and drive SEO.
