Social media has certainly changed the way we all work and play. For HR, it’s made an incredible impact. Remember the days when a simple newspaper ad brought in hundreds of resumes? Now with Web, a one line job opening draws thousands of resumes – and that’s within the first hour of the post.
Many of you use social media everyday to recruit new talent, but there are so many tools out there to navigate, how do you know which ones matter and what to look for once you land on a web page?
