Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter Factor In to How Job Recruiters Hire Candidates | TIME.com - 1 views

  •  
    By now, we've all heard about how employers scope out the Tweets and Facebook profiles of job seekers to winnow down the field of applicants. But job seekers may be surprised to hear just how many recruiters now use social media throughout the hiring process.

    Ah, the joys of social media! It truly does expand the meaning that "big brother" is watching. I've found myself pulling back on Facebook posts by trying to stick to only positive things. LinkedIn, I feel I need a to hire a PR rep to make sure everything is in order there. Twitter, I'm not a fan of it period. But from the sounds of the article, I better learn to like and use it. Thanks for the link to the article, very good information.

    I always enjoy this dynamic. It is a double edged sword and not every organization should want the use of social media in their candidates. I have conducted surveillance in law enforcement, research on teachers while working in the education field, and pre-screened inbound young Officers in the military. Its important to see what you are getting. It has become suspicious if someone doesn't have a linked in account. If a person has too many accomplishments on their linked in account however while simultaneously not having an active personal social media account as senior management I find it suspicious. We are all aware that if you want to know who a person truly is, the last place to look is linked in.

The Importance of Employer Branding in Recruiting | Americasjobexchange.com - 2 views

  •  
    With so many avenues for social media, it is important to have good "branding" for your organization. Something that represents the company and attracts potential candidates.
  •  
    I agree that good branding is a critical aspect for all organizations to consider in recruiting. It is also important to make sure the brand aligns with the actions of the organization and its employees; otherwise it has the potential to damage the reputation of the organization.
  •  
    I know many of organizations that utilize this type of branding as a means to re-enforce their product. Their superior talent is supposed to coincide with their product. Its interesting though that many individuals are passed over because they did not necessarily embody the branded traits help by the organization. I wonder who is to blame when the company goes into a nose dive economically?
