Recruitment & retention

Social savvy recruiters utilising social media in their recruitment strategy

by Personnel Today 20 May 2010
by Personnel Today 20 May 2010

With the increased popularity of social media tools such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, and the need to reduce recruitment costs, in house recruiters are becoming more social savvy and attempting to utilise these tools in their recruitment strategy.

Recruiters are increasingly looking at alternative methods to recruit talent and gone are the days where traditional job boards and agencies were the main source of candidates. Recruiters are now turning to social media to enhance their recruitment strategy. This is evident by the increased popularity and demand for workshops and conferences concentrating on this subject.

Social recruitment experts Hire Solutions is to stage a Social Media in Recruitment Workshop on 26th May for corporate recruiters on the importance of social media and the tools needed to maximise recruitment strategy.

“With the event already oversubscribed, and organisations already registering for future events there is a clear message that recruiters are keen to adopt new approaches to their recruitment strategy” commented workshop organiser Peter Gold.

For more information on the event, or to register for future workshops visit the Hire Strategies website.
