3 Ways to Use Erecruitment to Your

Advantage

Filling open jobs in a timely fashion with a high-quality candidate is a problem for

companies and recruiters alike.

Not only that, but according to Indeed’s recent report, “The 30-Day Tipping Point,” for businesses that fail to fill a job opening within

the first month, there is a 57% chance that the position will remain open for 3 months or more.

The first 30 days are extremely important, and that’s where erecruitment enters the picture. Erecruitment is the process of recruiting using electronic resources, specifically the Internet.

How do you leverage erecruitment to your advantage? How can you gain a competitive edge?

Speed is essential when it comes to erecruitment. After all, that is its main benefit: finding qualified candidates more quickly. That’s why it’s crucial to find an ATS that complements the way you run your desk and/or the way you run your

firm. You don’t want a package that’s so convoluted and complicated that it slows down your process. Slowing down is the opposite of what you want.

These days, recruiters are making placements with their firm’s website. That’s right, their site is helping them to attract and qualify candidates for their open job orders, while they turn their attention to completing other tasks on their desk. Is your firm’s website able to accomplish this? Is it SEO-friendly? Is it “sticky”? Does

it allow visitors to view your hottest jobs?

#2 Your Recruiting Website

Exposure for your open jobs is of paramount importance, and that is why many recruiters use the erecruitment avenue of job posting. However, you must

“inspect what you expect.” Are you posting to the correct places? What kind of ROI are you receiving on your investment in job posting? In other words, are you

making placements as a direct result of it?
