Formulating a Social Media Recruiting Strategy
BrightMove, Inc., a specialist in Applicant Tracking and Recruiting Software for HR, Staffing and Recruitment Outsourcing (RPO), releases a complimentary White Paper/Field Guide designed to aid recruiting firms and HR departments formulate a Social Media Recruitment strategy. BrightMove partnered with Nanci Lamborn, a veteran of recruiting and HR to write and design the guide.
“With the ever changing lay of the recruiting landscape, employers and hiring managers now have more staff sourcing avenues and opportunities than ever before seen. It is no secret that online technologies now dominate the recruiting marketplace,” says Nanci Lamborn. “But try to launch a strong Web 2.0 recruiting strategy without adequate planning and preparation, or miss a critical element along the way, and very quickly your candidate pools can dry up as top talent grows tired of waiting for your response or moves on to a better functioning recruitment process,” Lamborn adds.
The guide offers quick references for searching passive candidates through Google and other engines, in addition to offering a list of sites, tools and resources.

Job seekers (and passive candidates) are everywhere, so you need to be everywhere to reach them. Introducing a new service that does just that. One simple post and your job is distributed to the most popular social networking sites (including linkedin.com, facebook.com, myspace.com), blasted across the web (through indeed.com, simplyhired, google base, and oodle), and tweeted to followers of our tweets AND your company twitter followers. Now candidates can find your jobs on their computers, phones and other mobile devices no matter how they look for a job: through search engines, vertical aggregators, social networking sites. And our use of SEM allows passive candidates to be targeted while viewing associated web content.
