Can you promote in r/recruiting?

Welcome, Recruiting & Talent Acquisition Professionals! Industry discussion space - Recruiters only. No candidates, ads, or research. **User Flairs are mandatory for all posts**

The short answer

Engage as a recruiter first, provide helpful, non-promotional answers, and if you mention your product do so sparingly and transparently without links or solicitations.

What works here

  • Participate as a recruiter in topical discussions
  • Discuss recruiting tools/AI when focusing on experiences or challenges
  • Answer questions and contribute original, substantive content

What gets posts removed

  • Posting product launches, ads, job posts, or surveys
  • Using posts for product research, astroturfing, or SEO boosts
  • Sharing promotional links or repeated vendor pitches
