Social Media 101: Hands-On Guide To Social Media Recruitment

Social media has fast-become mainstream, making an appearance in every recruiter’s candidate attraction toolkit, and replacing job boards and other traditional recruitment methods to some degree.

The increasing use of web-based applications has changed the way we communicate with candidates and with each other. Tools such as Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn allow us to be more creative in the way we connect with people, while candidates are looking to these tools to learn about organisations and locate available positions.

In today’s tech-savvy environment every recruitment professional, be it internal or agency, needs to be a master of social media. They must learn how to leverage it to attract, engage and even screen potential candidates. It is essential to have a strategy in place and to be able to use social media as the foundation of your employment brand.
