**With summer around the corner, many of us look forward to well-deserved time off. Make sure your organisation keeps running smoothly and stress-free over the Summer by filling those seasonal job vacancies now. Orbi Outreach helps you find the right talent for your organisation.**

According to a recent survey by Snagajob, 74% of companies that wait until May to start hiring for summer positions struggle to fill them. By communicating your vacancies early, you have better chances of attracting the best candidates before they commit to other summer plans. Orbi promotes your organisation to relevant candidates, with an outreach of over 100 000 students, and helps you find the right match for your vacancies.

Summer jobs are important for students, not only for income but also for gaining experience, making contacts, and getting credentials for their resumes. Orbi is growing monthly in popularity for job hunting, and students get weekly notifications about new job vacancies.

With Orbi, you can tailor your job postings to ensure you’re only visible to relevant talent. Filter on background, subject, and location to pinpoint your ad to only show to students who might be suited for the job. Also, advertising costs are based on how many students find your job posting. You only pay for what you get, and you can manage your budget by setting daily and total caps.

By advertising your summer jobs now, you'll fill your vacancies faster and show that your company values proactive planning and efficiency. So, don't wait any longer – start promoting your summer jobs in Orbi today!
