Recruitment websites that work both sides of the desk.
C4 Studios builds websites for recruitment agencies — sites that convince candidates to apply and clients to brief, without one audience drowning out the other. Sites from $1,500, with job boards and portal features scoped from the $2,500–$4,500 tiers.
Why are recruitment websites so hard to get right?
Because they’re two websites wearing one domain. Candidates want jobs, fast search and a painless application. Clients want proof you can fill roles: sectors, process, results, a confident brief-us path. Most agency sites pick one audience by accident — usually candidates, because jobs are the easy content — and then wonder why the site never produces a client lead.
The fix is structural, not cosmetic: two clear front doors from the first screen, each leading to a path built for that audience, with the jobs board doing candidate work and the client side selling capability like the professional-services firm you actually are.
The agency site, done properly
Two front doors
“Find a role” and “Find people” from the first screen — each audience routed to a path built for them.
A jobs board that’s current
Fed from your ATS where possible, manageable in minutes where not. Stale listings cost more credibility than no listings.
Painless applications
Apply in under two minutes on a phone. Every extra field costs you the candidates worth having.
Sector pages for clients
One page per specialism with real numbers — time-to-fill, roles placed — because clients hire specialists, not generalists.
Consultant profiles
Candidates google the consultant before returning the call. Give them something better than a LinkedIn ghost.
Brief-us path
A client enquiry form that captures role, urgency and salary band — qualified before the first call.
What about the outbound side?
A website converts the demand that finds you. Recruitment mostly runs on demand you go and find, and for that side our sister business, C4Site, runs Lead Engine.
What does a recruitment website cost?
A dual-audience agency site typically lands at $1,500–$2,500; ATS integration and portal features are scoped on top.
The services behind it
Common questions
From $1,500 for a dual-audience site with a managed jobs board, sector pages and brief-us path. ATS integration and candidate portals move builds into the $2,500–$4,500 range depending on your system. Everything is quoted fixed against written scope.
Usually — most modern ATS platforms expose feeds or APIs we can pull listings from, so the website stays current without double entry. Where integration isn’t possible, we build the board to be updated in minutes, because a stale board is worse than none.
Four to six weeks for the dual-audience build including sector pages; ATS integration adds a week or two of testing. The pacing item is usually sector copy and consultant photos — we front-load both, and C4 Lens can shoot the team in a morning.
