To help the STM stand out in a highly competitive labor market for employers in Quebec, our media strategists implemented a multichannel recruitment campaign with several components.

The deployment of paid search ads, programmatic display, and social media advertising helped maximize job posting visibility while precisely targeting potential candidates—especially through spotlight placements on LinkedIn.

The tracking setup implemented by our experts enabled more accurate attribution of applications, allowing us to focus efforts on the tactics delivering the strongest results. We successfully exceeded the target number of applications for the campaign period.
