Classical job ads appeal to the mind. Our campaigns appeal to emotions – and thus to people.
Why is psychology crucial in recruiting?
We craft your job ads based on psychological principles, behavior patterns, and neuromarketing – so your message lands where it matters: in the mind and heart of your target group.
What can you achieve with us?
We design your job advertisements based on psychological principles, behavior patterns, and neuromarketing – ensuring your message reaches where it truly resonates: in the mind and heart of your target audience.
Emotions that move applicants.
Psychological recruiting uses insights from neuromarketing to specifically address unconscious motives. People rarely make decisions rationally – but emotionally. Our ads connect where traditional methods fail: with emotion.
How your campaigns can have an impact.
Through emotionally intelligent texts, visual storytelling, and psychological triggers, recruiting becomes not only more efficient, but also more human. You’ll attract candidates who feel understood – not just informed.
Impact that lasts.
Psychological recruiting goes beyond traditional measures: it anchors your message sustainably in memory. Through targeted stimuli, emotional imagery, and consistent repetition, it generates not just attention – but genuine interest.
What that means for your recruiting.
Your campaigns will no longer be overlooked but instead perceived, remembered, and clicked. With neuromarketing, you create closeness at first glance – and increase the chances of receiving applications that truly fit.
Think neuronally. Hit emotionally.
With social media recruiting that’s not just visible – but effective. We combine psychological impact with platform logic so your job ad isn’t just seen, but felt. Exactly where candidates make decisions: in a fraction of a second.
Your Questions – Our Answers
What does psychological recruiting mean?
Psychological recruiting means that we don’t just reach applicants – we touch them emotionally. Instead of generic job ads, we use targeted triggers, visual language, and copy that work exactly where decisions are made: in the candidate’s head and gut.
Why does this work better than traditional methods?
Because traditional job ads are often overlooked. Our approach is based on neuromarketing, A/B testing, and behavioral insights. This results in more attention, higher conversion rates, and better-fitting applications. Emotional targeting is more powerful than rational listings.
How is the target group psychologically analyzed?
We use psychographic target group analysis: What fears, desires, and inner motives drive potential applicants? From this, we derive visuals, tone, and funnel structure. This creates real connection instead of anonymous communication.
Isn’t that manipulative?
No. We focus on transparency and empathy, not tricks. Our goal is to connect people with the right job – one they might never have found otherwise. Psychological recruiting meets applicants where they are emotionally open – not where they need to be persuaded.
What do such job ads look like?
They are visually emotional, clearly structured, and use strong opening lines. Instead of “We are hiring…”, they start with questions or statements that spark interest. Images that evoke emotion take center stage. Each ad is tailored specifically to the target audience.
On which platforms does this work best?
Primarily on Facebook and Instagram, where people browse privately and respond emotionally. This also reaches passive applicants who are not actively searching but open to inspiration.
How is the funnel adapted to psychology?
Our funnels are designed to guide emotionally rather than overwhelm rationally. Short steps, clear questions, and positive reinforcement lead to more interaction and fewer drop-offs. Every funnel is tailored to the target audience.
What exactly does this bring to my company?
More qualified applications, faster processes, and a positive perception of your employer brand. You reach people who truly fit because you address them on a deeper level. This reduces scatter loss and increases success sustainably.
How is success measured?
Through conversion rates, click behavior, application numbers, and feedback. We test and optimize continuously to determine which psychological patterns work best – for your audience, your region, and your job openings.
How can I get started?
With a free consultation, where we discuss your goals, ideal candidate profiles, and past challenges. Then we recommend a starting point with psychological analysis, creative setup, and a measurable test campaign. Fast, safe, and effective.
How emotional can job ads be?
Emotion is a booster – not drama. We use targeted, positive, and motivating impulses: appreciation, perspective, and curiosity instead of pressure. That’s how we attract attention without scaring off or overdoing it.
Can introverted target groups also be reached?
Yes – through a calmer visual language, clearly structured content, and a respectful tone that emphasizes security and trust. We always adapt the tone and dynamics to the respective psychological target group.
Does it also work with older target groups?
Absolutely. In fact, older applicants especially respond to values like security, stability, and respect. We use targeted text and visual signals to address this group effectively and appreciatively.
How long does the psychological analysis take?
Our basic analysis takes only 1–2 days and is based on a mix of market analysis, experience, and quick profiling. It’s the key to a more precise and authentic campaign.
Do emotional triggers really work?
Yes – when inner motives are addressed, e.g. dissatisfaction, desire for recognition, or better work-life balance. Many job changes happen emotionally – not rationally. That’s exactly where our approach comes in.
What’s the difference from employer branding?
Psychological recruiting is short-term and action-oriented. It’s not about brand building, but about emotional activation and application. Employer branding is long-term – we deliver the impulse for quick action.
How does this affect the company’s image?
Positively. Companies that communicate emotionally and humanly are perceived as modern, approachable, and applicant-friendly. This not only improves recruiting, but also enhances brand perception.
What if applicants react skeptically?
We respond to skepticism with honesty, clarity, and a human tone. In funnel communication, we actively address doubts and show: Here, people are truly heard and understood – no marketing fluff.
Can multiple generations be addressed?
Yes – we design multi-step funnels that adapt to different user behaviors. This way, younger and older applicants can be approached differently without losing focus.
Which psychological principles do you use specifically?
We use, for example, scarcity, social proof, reciprocity, and consistency – but always aligned with ethics and truthfulness. It’s about understanding, not manipulation.
How creative can it be?
Creativity is welcome – but not an end in itself. We test things like unusual headlines or visual breaks to attract attention. The key is always: The message must fit the audience.
Can emotional funnels work for professionals too?
Especially with overloaded professionals who rarely search actively, emotional funnels are highly effective. They create interest, trust, and motivation – even for people with little time.
Are there success stories from your work?
Yes – for example, we reached nurses who, after years in the same facility, were suddenly emotionally motivated to switch jobs because our ad finally hit the right tone. These successes are no coincidence.
What impact does visual storytelling have?
A big one. People remember images faster than words. With visual storytelling, we tell small stories that create connection and spark interest – in just a few seconds, but with lasting effect.
