Using social media for recruiting purposes goes way beyond LinkedIn. While 97 percent of U.S. recruiters used LinkedIn for social recruiting purposes last year, just 40 percent of job seekers did. Compare that with Facebook and Twitter, which were used respectively in 67 percent and 45 percent of job seekers’ searches. Some companies trying to attract younger employees find that Snapchat is an effective recruitment tool.

There are a lot of things to consider when writing job descriptions. They need to be interesting and compelling, something that will attract the right candidates AND get them to click the ad/apply to the job. They need to be well-written, not just a copy-and-paste of what the client sends you. And they need to be search-engine friendly. What does that mean?

In 2014, a survey conducted by PwC revealed that 93% of global executives believed that they needed to change their talent acquisition model, but nearly two-thirds had failed to do anything about it. The fact that there is a war for talent being waged isn’t news. Unemployment is down. Urban hubs are buzzing. Recruiting is getting tough. Successful marketing efforts are built on delivering what consumers want, when they want it – and you have to make it easy for them to get it.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

The old saying “a picture is worth a thousand words” might need to be revised because, nowadays, it’s videos that are speaking volumes. The 2014 Cisco Visual Networking Index predicts that, by 2019, 80 percent of Internet content will be videos, which means recruiting strategies need to start adjusting. Considering a high-quality video can now be recorded on just about any mobile device, the excuse that creating video content is too time-consuming and expensive is no longer valid.

When I was writing my first novel, I got a ton of feedback from literary agents. Most of them told me this: “We love your story, but you need to show it, not tell it.”. Now that I’ve been working in social media for 10+ years (and am writing book number two) I get it. Because having a successful employer brand (or any brand, really) in social is all about showing, not telling.

Promoting job ads through social networks is a cost-effective way to engage with candidates.

It’s that time of year for business leaders to take a look at their past year’s performance and make plans for the following year – budget season. Recruiting leaders have a particularly complicated budget season, as the largest chunk of their budget – direct hire recruiting agencies – are unlikely to be fully understood. Building a recruiting budget is even difficult without the right insights, especially when allocating resources to an area that you may not understand completely.
