Can you use social media
   to attract talented
      employees?




      By Lee Gifford
YES!

       Using social media sites can
       help networking by using
       people telling people about
       job opportunities to ensure
       you find the most talented
       employees for your
       company
Can using social media to find
employees be more efficient than
   traditional methods such as
newsprint, job fairs, headhunters?



                VS.
YES!
       • Social media sites generally
         cost little to nothing to run
         and operate
       • Social media sites can
         spread faster and farther
         than non-social media
         outlets such as newsprint
       • Social media can allow for
         employers to give out a
         greater volume of
         information to better fine
         talented employees that fit
         well into the company
Do you know of any good
  Social Media sites to find
potential talented employees?
YES!

Some great social Media sites
   include the following:
