Have you looked at your organization’s recruiting Web site lately, the way a job applicant might?

Recruiting sites can benefit from the same basic design principles that apply to all Web pages — they must be informative, eye-catching and easy to read.

When looking at your site, here’s a checklist you can use to make sure you’re giving candidates the best impression, courtesy of the folks at entrepreneur.com:

  1. Is the design simple and uncluttered? Is it easy to navigate, and are the most important items given prime real estate?
  2. Is the page visually appealing?
  3. Are you using only one or two basic colors that go well together, not a hodgepodge?
  4. Are there too many different fonts being used?
  5. Does the site have a similar look and feel as everything your organization does (i.e., your company’s logo, ads and signage)?
