Social Recruiting...the Basics We Always Forget!

Just two weeks ago, I attended a conference in Philadelphia regarding social media’s influence on the business world as we know it.

However, for those of you who haven’t jumped on board the social media train, you are missing out. Let’s take HR for example. Recruiters know that they should get involved, so what’s…See More

The early adopter recruiters, techies and social media mavens will be there, but I'm hesitant to believe the early and late majority will readily dive in. It took me a while to convince my friends to get on Facebook. I don't have the…
