Outreach Within the Community

Another way to make your brand outshine others is by involving yourself in outreach within the CNA community. This allows you to actively engage with jobseekers in a unique way and builds a powerful pipeline which allows you to view potential candidates to determine if they’re right for you.

 Initiatives such as email or text campaigns, maintaining an active presence on social media, hosting or participating in job fairs at schools that have CNA programs and increasing your brand visibility means your healthcare organization will be top of mind for jobseekers.
