What Is One Day One Job?

Every day (even on Christmas and Groundhog Day) we introduce our audience of college students and recent grads to a new employer. We share with them the company’s story: what it does, who they are, why they’re interesting, and what kind of entry level career opportunities they offer.

It may sound simple, but it’s changed the way that thousands of new college grads find jobs. When job seekers understand the meaning behind a company, they make better decisions. They stop carpet bombing recruiters’ inboxes with résumés, and they start taking a focused approach towards landing jobs that they are good fits for. Everyone wins.

How We Communicate

Our goal is to be a part of our readers’ every day job search routine. That means that we need to reach them in the format that they’re most comfortable with. We distribute our daily posts through e-mail, RSS, and on the web. Additionally, we broadcast our posts to our Facebook fans and Twitter followers.

Web: Everything starts on our website. It’s where our readers first find us, and it’s the easiest way to browse through our archives of employer profiles and in-depth articles on innovative job search techniques. When readers want to dive into One Day, One Job, the web is place to do it.

RSS Feed: Every time that we publish something to the web, it shows up in our RSS feed. Those who read One Day, One Job via RSS are typically very tech savvy .

Daily E-mails: The large majority of our repeat readers are subscribed through e-mail. That means that they happily receive a single e-mail from us every day. In fact, many people love the e-mails so much that they stay subscribed after they land a job.

Our Audience

The idea of a blog that features a new employer every day is pretty cool, but it’s nothing without an audience of smart, well educated readers. We have that, and it keeps growing. At last count we had:

• 70,000+ monthly unique visits
• 4,700+ daily subscribers
• 1,800+ Facebook Fans
• 2,500+ Twitter followers

Just to give you a sense of what kind of students our audience consists of, we’ve put together a list of the top 20 college and universities in terms of One Day, One Job readership (based on web visits from on campus IP addresses).

Here’s the list:

1. Columbia University
2. New York University
3. Stanford University
4. University of Michigan
5. Cornell University
6. University of Chicago
7. Michigan State University
8. Harvard University

14. Boston College
15. Penn State University
16. Boston University
17. University of Virginia

How much would it cost your company to do on campus recruiting at those 20 schools? Now, what if you add the other 1,700+ colleges and universities that we reach?

The One Day, One Job Effect

Over the past 2 years One Day, One Job has become one of the most trusted brands for information on entry level employment opportunities. When we feature a company, our readers respond in force. Here’s what some employers had to say after they were featured on One Day, One Job:

Willy, thanks for featuring ShipCompliant’s open positions on your site. We’ve been flooded with interested candidates since Friday.
- Jason Eckenroth, ShipCompliant

The three summer interns that we found through OneDayOneInternship have been fantastic, thank you. Based on the success of the summer internship program, we were hoping to expand the program in the fall.
- David Temple, LiveIntent

Based on one tweet about a job opening at Tocquigny, One Day, One Job wrote an article about us that generated the greatest amount of referring traffic to our website all month.
- Sherry Holdridge, Tocquigny

Just following up on your post about Ifbyphone last month. We hired someone today who told me he read about our company on your site. Once again, thanks for the publicity!
- Elan Mosbacher, Ifbyphone

Thanks for taking the time/effort to feature Agency Nil last week. It made for a flood of talented, eager inquiries for work.
- Hank Leber, Angency Nil

In an average month, One Day, One Job sends more than 20,000 outbound clicks to employer websites.

Although a “flood of traffic” to your Careers page is nice, what’s really nice is when it’s a flood of qualified applicants. Considering that MWW Group, DailyCandy, Shmoop, Ifbyphone, Academy for Educational Development, Motley Fool, and All Terrain are just some of the companies that have hired people who found out about them from One Day, One Job, I think that it’s safe to say that our readers make top flight candidates.

One Day, One Job in the Press

Not only do job seekers and employers both love us, but so does the press. Whether they’re talking about an article that we’ve published, telling the One Day, One Job story, or quoting Willy Franzen, there’s a ton of interest in a small startup that’s helping hundreds of thousands of people through the job search.

Here’s what the media is saying about One Day, One Job:

In essence, the site can help your company reach entry-level candidates online, use the Internet to manage your employment brand or optimize your career Web site.
- Cheezhead.com

If you’re a recent college grad or about to become one, One Day One Job is a resource you should be using as part of your job search.
- About.com (which also named us one of its Top Niche Job Search Websites)

If you’re interested in making your own Facebook ad to find a job, I recommend you follow Franzen’s step-by-step guide.
- BusinessWeek

Additionally we’ve been featured or linked to by: Time Magazine, Freakonomics/NYTimes.com, Slate, Reader’s Digest, Sports Illustrated on Campus, The Minneapolis Star-Tribune, The Baltimore Sun, Weekly Reader, and quite a few more publications, blogs, websites, and e-mail lists.

Advertising and Sponsorship Packages

We often get asked how much it costs to be featured as One Day, One Job’s company of the day. Unfortunately, that kind of placement isn’t for sale. All the companies that we feature in our daily posts are selected editorially.

What we can offer are some exciting ways to reach our audience through advertising and sponsorships.

Employer Sponsorships

What did you expect? Banner ads? We know what it takes to engage our readers, which is why we’ve put together sponsorship packages that will allow you to introduce your employment brand to our entire audience. A One Day, One Job sponsorship consists of:

• A post about your company covering your topics, but written in our tone and voice
• Promotion of that post across the entire site for the duration of the sponsorship
• Inclusion in one of our daily e-mails for each week of sponsorship
• A permanent link to your company’s post in our archives
• Exclusivity—we only take one sponsorship at a time

Cost: $1,000 for a week, $3,800 for a month, and $40,000 for a year. Contact willy@onedayonejob.com for more information.

* If your company has already been featured editorially on One Day, One Job or you are representing a non-profit organization, contact us about discounted rates.

Non-Employer Advertising

If you have a product, service, website, or something else that you think our readers will love, we want to help you reach them. Although our main focus is on working with employers, we do accept non-employer advertising on a CPM, CPC, or CPA basis. Contact willy@onedayonejob.com for more information.

Contest and Other Promotions

Have another idea on how One Day, One Job and your company might be able to work together? We’re open to all kinds of ideas. We’ve participated in a number of contest and promotions (some sponsored, some not) that have delivered great results for both us and the sponsors, so we’re always looking for new opportunities. Contact willy@onedayonejob.com for more information.
