How do I get my agency named when employers ask ChatGPT for a recruiter in my niche?
Employers now ask AI tools "best recruitment agency for engineers in Ontario". Specific information about your niche helps.
- Why does ChatGPT name other agencies?
- Is this just SEO?
- Do reviews matter?
Publish pages for each niche, role type and location you recruit for, with real detail on what you place and how. Keep your Google Business Profile and listings consistent, collect reviews from clients and candidates, and get mentioned by industry associations and partners. Google says its AI features need no special optimization beyond good SEO.
What helps
- Niche and role pages with specifics.
- Placement examples and market data.
- Reviews from clients and candidates.
- Mentions from associations and partners.
