Do I Really Need to Be on Linkedin? 98% of recruiters use LinkedIn, 42% use

Twitter, and 33% use Facebook 48% of recruiters use LinkedIn exclusively

meaning they use no other online or offline source to find candidates

Recruiters are actively building their followings:  The average recruiter has 616 connections on LinkedIn, 245 on Facebook and 37 on Twitter.

According to SHRM, LinkedIn is the “suit and tie network” and Facebook is gaining interest for the more blue-collar jobs.
