Social Media For Recruitment
A faster, smarter, better way to recruit
The above infographic appears courtesy of Staff.com, a global recruitment platform. The infographic highlights both the increasing importance that businesses now attach to Social Media when it comes to recruitment and also serves as a reminder to any potential recruit that their Social Media Profiles are being looked at way beyond those who they intend it for. 1 in 3 employers have rejected an applicant based on something they’ve found on a Social Media platform with references to drug use and sexual activity having the greatest adverse effect.
It’s not only those in the media spotlight such as sports stars, politicians, public officials and figures in the entertainment industry who can come unstuck because of careless or inappropriate Social Media activity. Don’t say you’ve not been warned!
