Having a LinkedIn recruiter profile can help you create a network of talented candidates, as LinkedIn is the social media platform that is used for professional networking. It is a platform where candidates showcase all of their skills, education, work experience, etc. in their profiles. It is a good place to build your company’s employer brand. This does not mean that you don’t have to use other social media platforms. All social media platforms work in different ways. This can help you communicate your value proposition in all formats possible. The war for talent is real. Companies are fighting hard to attract and retain top performers. In such a situation, recruiter companies should not leave any recruiting strategy untried while hiring candidates for job positions. Try different strategies and identify what works best for you.

Recruiting the Millennial Generation
(ages 18 to 34)
They don’t read newspapers…. They read blogs
They no longer mail out résumés... They post on LinkedIn
They no longer hobnob in person... More and more networking
happens on the Internet
Hiring managers need to catch on and match their job
candidate searches to work in tandem with the
emerging interconnected economy.
4. +
Social media is no longer cutting-edge;
it is mainstream. For HR to overlook it today would be like
ignoring e-mail 20 years ago.
5. +
The Rise of Social Media in Hiring
Practices and Recruiting
Networking today comes faster and more authentically via the
Internet. The exchange of ideas, collaboration, nurturing
relationships, and building a name is happening all around you
on social media.
Companies posting jobs need to let the world know who they
are and what they are doing. That’s only going to happen by
using the Internet — blogging, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn –
and whatever else works.
According to Career Builder, 52% of employers use social
media networking sites as part of their recruiting process, up
13% in a mere two years.
7. + Human resources can leverage social media
to tap in to potential recruits.
This type of head hunting is called social recruiting. It's about
engaging with users and using social media tools to source and
recruit talent.
8. + Social Recruiting (also known as social hiring
and social media recruitment):
Using social media platforms such as Twitter and LinkedIn to advertise jobs,
find talent, and communicate with potential recruits about company culture.
10. +
To reach the most qualified, talented,
and largest pool of applicants
LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter have over 535 million
combined users. That equals a lot of potential talent for your
company.
As with any job opening, using social media recruiting requires
time and effort, but it's an investment in longer-term benefits for
your company. Using LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter takes
recruiting back to grass roots networking but in the digital age.
The competition for top talent is increasingly being fought on
the social networks.

By the Numbers: Social Media for
Employers and Employees

presence was part of the
reason they chose their
workplace.

Society for Human Resource Management:

How to Use Social Media in
Recruiting and HR
Employers can use social media in two ways when hiring: to
recruit candidates by publicizing job openings and to conduct
background checks to confirm a candidate’s qualifications for a
position. Check social media profiles after an applicant has been
interviewed.
Social media can also help companies streamline employee
engagement, keep an eye on the competition, and perform a
variety of other HR functions.
Social media allows certain HR activities, such as recruiting, to be
accomplished on a much wider scale than traditional methods. It
helps companies engage with a wider audience, build brand
awareness, target top candidates, and improve on the
effectiveness of their recruitment efforts without a significant
increase in costs.

I am SEB
Excited to speak at this event for the first time
Thank you for having me
About me
My career trajectory
How I work with social media
How I work with recruiting
Rise of SM use corresponds with influx of millennials into workforce
They’re not big on paper – no mailing resumes and no reading paper/mags
SM is required now
Network online
Let people know about your company on SM
It works both ways – you and recruits are all out there looking at a lot of the same stuff
SMR is using SM to attract and hire great candidates
It's about engaging with users and using social media tools to source and recruit talent.
Social recruiting is also known as social hiring and social media recruitment
Advertise jobs, find talent, and communicate with potential recruits
Now we know what SMR is, but why should we use it?
Reach of social media is so broad
It’s beneficial to use SM anyway
Explain what social proof is and why it is important
Recruiters use it and job seekers use it (and not just them)
You can use SM to vet candidates
You can use SM to list a job / promote a job posting
You can use SM to monitor your competition
You can use SM for the normal stuff like building your brand
What SM channels should we use?
Having a social media presence is just the first step to Social HR.
Make sure your social media and hiring practices stay aligned - think twice before putting something in a social post that you wouldn't put into a job posting
What could potential goals be?
Short-term: Obviously to acquire talent
Mid-term: Build up your audience and use of channels for ongoing digital value
Long-term: Become a known commodity and thought leader
Establish what job seekers can expect from your company and what the company will ask of them in return
Flesh out the job description, candidate qualifications, and job duties
Be specific and honest about what you really want or else you will wind up with a lot of candidates you don’t want
Define and sell your company culture so you don’t wind up with misfits
In general with recruiting, you want to look at things from the candidate’s perspective.
Why should the best candidates want to work at your company?
Why should they want the job you're promoting?
Target strategically, don’t just spray and pray
Strengthen your corporate culture
Now we will go channel by channel on the main three channels you should use for recruiting
Extra tips:
Optimize your LinkedIn Company Page for Search
Join groups where you might connect with potential candidates
You can find out a lot about a person from their profile before contacting them for an interview
Extra tips:
Make sure the information on your company’s Facebook Page is relevant and up-to-date.
Make it look good.
Extra tips:
You can run paid advertising campaigns to build your audience and to increase engagement with your tweets
There is also the opportunity to market events you will be attending. "Stop by our career booth at the Sales Tech Expo.”
Like Billy Joel sings “Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound / Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me”
It’s a new use, but it’s still social media to me….so use it right
Treat SMR like you would any marketing endeavor and use a comprehensive strategy
Capture the ideal candidates’ attention
Differentiate yourself from other similar companies competing for the same talent.
Think like a marketer and come up with a recruiting campaign or strategy that is “outside the box” and lets you capture their imagination.
