A large majority of companies are moving away from traditional recruitment which used newspapers, classifieds, and print , and has been using social media as their primary recruiting tool, according to annual survey results released by social recruitment software company Jobvite.
The report, entitled Jobvite Social Recruiting Survey 2010, was based on an online survey taken by 600 participants between May and June.
Of the respondents who are actively hiring this year, 92% said that they either “currently use or plan to” use social networks for recruiting new employees. Meanwhile, spending on more traditional tools like job boards and third-party recruiters either decreased or stayed constant for a majority of companies.
Not surprisingly, the social networking site most used by companies for recruiting is LinkedIn (78%) , followed by Facebook (55%). The site that saw the most growth was Twitter.
How many Indian Companies do you think are actually using social media to screen and recruit Candidates. More importantly if they are at all using social media to identify potential candidates… do they also run checks on their background by using social search,people search and hunting through their facebook and Orkut profiles ? While social sites can be good hunting grounds, I doubt if the HR’s are actually scourging a candidates social friends and social behavior to run pre employment checks ..
For enterprises and Companies that have banned social media at their offices .. This is something which they need to decide. Personally I feel this is a step in the reverse direction.. If your employees are talking about you across the social media .. means that there is something terribly wrong in your organisation . The Concept of Crowdsourcing will allow the general mass emotion to prevail … thereby nullyfying the negative emotions.. What is means that if most employees thinks that something negative is being written about their workplace which they do not subscribe they will blog about it.. thereby balancing the bias… However they would also blog negatively if they feel that something is not right. . Silencing the voices of both the positive and the negative… you runthe risk of alienating employees who would ideally have played a role of an evangelist for an organisation.
