HR professionals recruit successfully through Social Media
Using Social Media, HR professionals can fill vacancies reducing recruitment costs. In addition, an active social media policy provides positive attention. This results in a good image for an organization and increases employees engagement according to research from ADP.
Most of HR professionals include Social Media in their HR Policy. More than half of them expect Social Media to be the most important channel of personnel recruitment.
The use of Social Media is also very beneficial for employees as nearly a third of job seekers who use social media get an offer by an employer.
HR professionals expect Social Media to be crucial in the future to share knowledge and increase commitment.
Employees know jobseekers who look for a job and the organization will be willing to hire their colleagues. They can spread vacancies on Social Media.
When employees get rewarded for bringing a friend to the company, they get more involved and the recruitment goals are better and easily achieved, says ADP.
