Our approach to filling your vacancies faster
Tips 'n tricks about the web, digital trends, and online marketing
Filling vacancies can be a challenging process, especially in a competitive job market. Companies look not only for qualified candidates, but also for people who fit into the company culture and are a nice addition to the team!
At Funkhaus, we understand how crucial it is to fill vacancies quickly and effectively. With a thoughtful marketing strategy and an approach aimed at appealing to the right target audience, we help companies find the ideal candidates.
In this article, we explain how we can fill your vacancies faster and what methods we use to optimise the process.
The challenges of filling vacancies
Many companies experience that filling vacancies takes longer than desired. This is due to several factors, including:
- Labour market tightness: There is more demand than supply in many sectors, giving candidates more choice.
- Insufficient visibility: Companies do not always manage to bring job vacancies to the attention of the right people.
- Inefficient processes: The recruitment process is sometimes too slow or insufficiently focused on candidates' needs.
Our approach is designed to overcome these challenges and help companies attract qualified candidates quickly.
Our strategy for accelerating the recruitment process
1. Building an attractive employer profile
A strong employer profile is crucial to stand out in a competitive market. We help companies create an authentic and attractive image of their organisation so that potential candidates feel engaged.
- Employer value proposition (EVP): What makes your company unique as an employer? We map this out clearly and communicate it in all your recruitment communications.
- Content creation: We develop engaging stories, and clear info that showcase your company culture and core values.
- Social proof: Showing the internal atmosphere and successes helps build confidence and interest among potential candidates.
2. Targeted use of online channels
To reach the right candidates, it is important to be present on the channels where they are active. Our strategy includes a mix of organic and paid promotion, tailored to your target audience.
- Social media campaigns: Platforms such as LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook offer opportunities to target specific audiences based on location, skills and interests.
- SEO for jobs: By implementing keyword strategies, we make sure your jobs rank well in search results.
3. Optimisation of the application process
The application process plays a crucial role in attracting and retaining candidates. A simple, transparent and quick process can make the difference between a successful hire and a missed opportunity.
- Accessible vacancies: We ensure vacancies are clearly and attractively written, with a focus on what candidates want to know, such as responsibilities, growth opportunities and fringe benefits.
- Mobile-friendly: Many candidates apply via their smartphones. We optimise the process to reduce friction and generate more applications.
- Automated follow-up: By using tools such as automated emails, we keep candidates engaged during the process.
Conclusion
Filling vacancies does not have to be a lengthy and stressful process. With a strategic approach focusing on visibility, efficiency and a strong employer profile, you can quickly attract the right candidates.

Kurt Habraken
Are you looking for a reliable partner to increase your online visibility, are you looking for a partner to get a website built? Wout and the colleagues at Funkhaus are a fine partner to start a project. At first, they listen carefully to what we wanted as customers. Based on this, Wout makes an offer, and after approval, they get to work. During the set-up period, there is frequent contact and consultation so that everything runs smoothly and the outcome is as the customer, us, expected. Even the after-service after delivery, which is invaluable after all, is super.
A fine partner to work with, who doesn't look down on any extra effort either. All this at a fair affordable cost makes absolutely super

Funkhaus did a fantastic job updating our website, and made all the changes with angelic patience. Really a very pleasant collaboration, can recommend it to anyone!

I contacted Wout as part of a mini RFP where he came out on top in a selection of 13 competitors. He was not the cheapest but stood head and shoulders above the competition in terms of responsiveness, clarity, transparency, helpfulness and willingness to listen.
From the start of my project, it turned out to be precisely these qualities that ensured that every question, every suggestion and the countless times I changed my mind were calmly and openly met and resolved by Wout.
Each time, he managed to clarify my sometimes confused suggestions, offer some solutions and then, above all, implement them at lightning speed (even "on the spot" in some cases).
His communication is calm, friendly, never pedantic or unnecessarily complicated. He is approachable, always accessible and keeps his appointments.
He will also explain his views on certain decisions and frame them with the necessary diplomacy.
He kept me informed at every step of the progress he had made, the next steps and the actions I still needed to take myself.
And the result is a website that runs flawlessly and that I can be incredibly proud of. NPS 10/10.

I came to you via a good reference to provide my website for e-commerce. Wout thought along with me about the possibilities and offered an ideal solution, taking into account the budget.
Transparent, professional communication and a very high-quality delivery. Thank you for this!
Yves Van Pelt
Our website was created by Funkhaus. Wonderful result and overall more than satisfied with the approach, listening to our wishes, fresh whole and above all a good working product. Thanks for everything Wout. We can only recommend you.
Leen Vermeiren
After being introduced to several website builders, we confidently went with Funkhaus to build our new website and choose our new corporate identity. Wout guided us through the whole process in a professional, efficient and friendly manner. We are very happy with this cooperation and can definitely recommend Funkhaus. Feel free to take a look at the website of Stella Matutina Wuustwezel.
Annelies Belsack
In our collaboration with Funkhaus, we took care of UNICHIR vzw's website.
Funkhaus was responsible for the web strategy and design, inspired by the new UNICHIR logo. They then technically elaborated this design into the brand new website.
DSC was responsible for the fundraising strategy and content.
They provided us with a handy custom WordPress template, allowing us to easily add content on the website ourselves. The template works very easily.
The job was completed to perfection. Their approach was structured and smooth.
Funkhaus is also very accessible for additional questions and goes that extra mile for its customers.
Your project is definitely in good hands with Funkhaus!
We are satisfied with the approach, the follow-up and, of course, the final result.
Thank you, Wout and the Funkhaus team, and we look forward to seeing you on the next project.
