Oh, that is a question. Tell the candidate? Don’t tell the candidate? I mean really, attention to detail is key in most jobs. Especially anything at the executive level, and certainly anything administrative. And good grief, if it’s accounting or finance, typos are verboten. But where is there slack? Do you excuse typos in a LinkedIn profile? Maybe not. Especially …
So, I’m guessing many of you know about LinkedIn’s Influencers. These are usually folks like: Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Jack Welch, Deepak Chopra, Barack Obama, Jeff Weiner (LinkedIn’s CEO), etc. They’re really well-known folks who write blog posts for LinkedIn and then get highly read and shared across that platform. Truth be told, I doubt the real big names do …
So Saturday morning I”m trolling through various sites I read and I stumble across a Facebook post from Justin Constantine. Who”s Justin Constantine? This guy. I had the opportunity to listen to Justin”s keynote at RecruitDC, and was just so incredibly grateful that our Conference Booking Goddess had once again found someone who so eloquently illustrated the sacrifices men and …
So I see the news about Facebook’s new Social Jobs Partnership and I am excited, I’ve just spent the morning listening to Gerry Crispin talk about the Candidate Experience Awards and I’m thinking this will just round out my day. This has got to be good…right? Let’s watch the great FB turn recruiting on it’s ear….change up social media….create the …
I'm going to waffle on this one folks. Yes – because you can post jobs and find potential candidates. But, at the same time, my “no's” are a little lengthier. No… because the postings where candidates really engage are within the groups under career discussions. Because the candidates are seeing a real person tied to the post, not just some …
Anyone else getting inundated with LinkedIn invitations lately? I am. Hundreds every night. I'm a friendly gal, but not that friendly. Oddly enough all these invites appear to be from “Human Resources”. From all over the world. Who knew I had such an incredible international presence? (I'm being sarcastic here…) Yes, “Human Resources” profiles from all over want to connect. …
By now, most HR Pros are on the social media bandwagon. If you are on the wagon, get off for 2 minutes and read further. Who out there uses Hootsuite? You know – the app that will manage multiple social profiles and make them all homogeneous. Combining your social media messages may seem smart, but homogenization is for your milk …
Months ago I became enamored with Google+. It was a no brainer that the site would experience explosive growth and now, more than 8 months after it debuted, has in excess of 100 million profiles. Yes, I know, its sticky factor is something like 3 minutes, but that doesn’t bother me. I’m a sourcer, I want profiles. And there’s plenty …
Prospects KNOW you are a crappy recruiter. Candidates aren’t stupid even though bad recruiters think they are. So corporate HR quit recruiting. Now. I think the recruiting industry is officially dead. Maybe the one, true and only trusted hiring method is through internal referrals. It’s who you know, right? The final nail toward the demise of recruiting: Social Media. Specifically …
Shhh … don’t tell Facebook, but I have two accounts. No, I’m not two different people, but they serve two different purposes. One is a public profile that is entirely viewable to anyone, anytime. I use this one exclusively in my role as GEICO’s HR social media lead. My personal page is on lockdown – only confirmed friends can view …
