Sponsor Companies of whatsnext4me.com will receive a customized Sponsor Landing Page that users will view upon clicking on the Sponsor's logo from the sponsored page(s) and from the Sponsor Companies page. From the Sponsor Landing Page within whatsnext4me.com, users can click on a link to a designated page on the Sponsor Company's website.
This is your opportunity to engage and attract our site visitors so they will explore your company in more detail. Here are a few suggestions based on the research we have done on creating teen-friendly websites.
Company logo
Include exciting photos of people at work, customers, locations - whatever makes working at your company appear fun, engaging, exciting, and interesting to a young person. Pictures are very important - and "real" pictures are much more compelling than ones that seem formal and posed. This audience wants to see what it's really like - good and bad. If they think you are just painting a rosy picture, they will switch off fast.
About us
Give a brief overview of the company, with basic facts about segment, number of employees, locations, etc. Remember these are high school students - keep it brief.
Why you want to work for your company
Provide information about why someone would want to work for your company - information on work environment, the benefits of being an employee, the company's impact on the Industry, growth opportunities, etc. If you have compelling data about your company's employment of minorities, include it here. Again, this is for high school students so please don't use technical terms that they are unlikely to understand.
Just for teens (describe any of the opportunities below that are applicable to your company)
- Scholarship opportunities - this is an area of great interest - make it prominent if you offer scholarships
- Summer/part-time employment opportunities (can they search these by zipcode?)
- Internship/externship opportunities
- Job shadow opportunities
- Management trainee programs
Check out our website
Provide some direction to students about how to navigate your corporate website to find information on jobs, career opportunities, locations, etc.
Link to the appropriate page on your website - we would recommend that this be a new page that is designed as a landing page. |
