I run a small business, we do alright but Im at the price sensitive end of the market due to our size so I cant really afford to pay a recruitment agent 20% of the annual salary upfront with a small clawback period. I've tried advertising on Linkedin (free job ad) and CV Library (£75) and not got a single person who is suitable with anything close to relevant experience. I think the salary is decent for up here in Newcastle so I dont think thats the problem but does anyone have any advice or options that's worked for them to recruit staff? I was thinking of giving Indeed jobs a go but other than that I'm not sure what else I can do?
Im looking for staff - any ideas?

Thanks for all the comments, constructive and otherwise...
I posted the job on Indeed and got nearly 100 applications, some with no experience and others with the exact experience we are looking for, so my conclusion is that LinkedIn and CV library aren't the place to be advertising jobs on!
I have since employed someone who started last week and has been awesome! For those asking, salary is £30k and 35 days holiday.
