I'd also really appreciate any notes anyone has on making this post more appealing, as it doesn't seem to generate much interest.
- I'm not going to write an email to a generic email address because the probability of receiving an answer is zero. Probably not the case for you but still. If you want emails, use some kind of name@company
- Youre not going to lose anything if you quote a broad range for the salary. I have my expectations. 9 times out of 10, they arent met. If I can see them not being met, I wont waste your time. If I see them actually being met, I'm way more inclined to apply. Its annoying for me to talk to someone, knowing roughly my market value, and them showing up with an offer of about half of what my minimum is, after 4 weeks of "talks". Just quote a range against which people can qualify themselves. Whatever that range may be for where you're based.
- You can't do much about where youre based, but nottingham is probably not the startup center of the universe.
At least 1-3 is probably actionable.
However, I dont think you ever include a website. And that's naturally my next port of call to find out more.
After doing some google-fu to get rid of solidworks results, I've struggled to find you online..
Not saying you need a full social media presence - but a lack of any online presence at all may be discrediting you? It also means I can't answer basic questions like, "where are your offices?" and "who are the directors?" (without going to the length of companies house etc. etc.)
Food for thought! :)
