Social Networks

Social networks such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Youtube are becoming increasingly popular mediums for online recruitment.

As part of an overall online recruitment strategy, social networking sites offer the ability to engage with potential recruits who can learn more about your organisation and culture through connecting with other employees.

It’s important to distinguish between different types of networks. Linkedin and Xing for example are specifically business orientated. A candidate contacted via these networks may behave and respond in a completely different way to being approached via a general social network such as Facebook.

VONQ can help you leverage the power of social networks to promote your brand and help attract candidates directly.

According to the 2008 CIPD recruitment survey, the most popular social networking sites regarding online recruitment are Linked and Facebook, who have over 180 million users worldwide between them.
