LinkedIn
LinkedIn as a business
networking tool for recruiting employees provide employers with additional
insights and information about the professional qualification of a talent or
job seeker.
It also allow them to post job
openings and find potential job seekers that best match the qualifications of
the job they want to fill.
For job seekers, it allows them
to follow the news and job postings of their targeted employers.
Facebook
Facebook enables employers to
create a presence that reflects their employment brand, find potential
candidates, and post jobs. In addition, it enables great opportunities for
interaction with candidates and allows organisations to create a community.
Facebook was originally geared towards personal communication, but has morphed
into a tool that being used more and more for business.
Twitter
Twitter is primarily effective for
increasing the company’s exposure and advertising job openings within the
company.
Job seekers who follow organisation
s on twitter are easily kept abreast of opportunities that are available within
the organisation as well as programmes.
To conclude this article, I
will leave you (Job seekers) with three recommendations from Chirag Nangia, CEO
of Reppify on how to manage your social media for recruiting process:
Keep your professional profiles
up-to-date and complete. Recruiters often use these as a way to find new
candidates.
Engage in online communities
reflecting topics you’re passionate about. For example, if you are an engineer,
get involved on open-source projects on GitHub, or answer relevant questions on
Quora.
Connect with your professional
connections on LinkedIn. Often these connections could help you find your next
job.
