This week, the MMA is unveiling new features for its popular Municipal Career Opportunities service and a new, streamlined classified ad rate structure.
The changes will enable job seekers to filter the available ads by geographic region and by local government operational area (e.g., Human Resources, Finance, Public Works, etc.), in order to enhance overall utility for both prospective employers and employees.
A new ad placement form incorporates the advertiser’s region as well as the list of eight job categories. Advertisers may also select whether a position is part-time, full-time, an internship, contractor or per diem.
Advertising rates, for both MMA members and nonmembers, will be determined by whether an ad is over or under 200 words, greatly simplifying the MMA’s rate structure. The MMA’s advertising rates had not been adjusted since 2018, and the updated rates reflect the added value and improved reach of ad postings.
The new member rate for web-only job, RFP and services ads is $115 for up to 200 words, and $165 for ads with more than 200 words. The member rate for ads that run on the MMA website as well as The Beacon is $165 for ads with 200 words or less and $325 for ads with more than 200 words.
For nonmembers, web-only job, RFP and services ads are charged at a rate of $175 for up to 200 words and $285 for more than 200 words. The nonmember rate for ads that run on the MMA website as well as The Beacon is $225 for up to 200 words and $385 for more than 200 words.
