What is Social Media
Social media is an umbrella term that describes
websites that connect individuals somehow. A hallmark of social media is the user generated

controlled style of old media.

Recruiting via Social Networking
Ann Nimke, cofounder of Pinstripe, describes correctly how Web 2.0,
the latest generation of the "World Wide Web" websites that encourage
personal interaction, began with message boards, instant messaging,Wikipedia, YouTube and, finally, virtual networking. Next came the social
networks.
Jason Blessing, from Tal eo, says, "This is a classic case of the World
Wide Web making something old new again. Social networks online
keep you connected with colleagues and can be a source of referral for passive jobseekers."

Be a Detective: Robin McMahon from Pinstripe said that once you find
an individual's name (and often an employer's name) from Networking
site, you can use Google or another search engines to find telephonenumbers and e-mail addresses. He further says ³As the labor market
continues to tighten, making it more difficult to find professionals with
significant expertise in their fields, it will become increasingly necessary
to use alternate or nontraditional methods such as social networks´.

Words of Wisdom: Cont«
More Suitable for High Level Recruitment: ³I have filled several jobs
over the years and typically they are at the executive level. I don¶t see
much below a Senior Manager or Director level as being very effective
on LinkedIn. But at Senior Manager, Director, VP, CEO levels, it is great.´
Greg Buechler, the founder and CEO of Off the Hook Jobs
No Flattery: Case in discrimination and termination: Over the next
couple of years, we are going to see lawyers mining these Social
Networking Sites for evidence to support their claims. Make sure any
LinkedIn recommendation match up with what¶s said in the HR
sanctioned reviews.

Concluding Note
"The key to successful recruiting via networkingsites is to remember these sites are µsocial' and
therefore any information retrieved online about anindividual must be interpreted and usedintelligently.´
