9. Growing Candidate Channels
Managing a large pool of passive
candidates demands automation
Social media has changed how people
consume information. Is your technology
keeping up with it?
Are you tracking the source of your best
candidates?

mobile device for work purposes

connectivity

Increasing expectation from employees
about accessing information anywhere
More people expect a consumer-like
experience when using company
software
People BYOD to better control their user
experience

12. Mobility and Access Everywhere
Cloud-based solutions are opening
up opportunities for multi-device
experiences
Recruitment technology should allow
users to access, track and search
candidates across multiple devices
