Recruiter
Response
41/7/2016
With the demands of modern business, today’s recruiters and
hiring managers must be as dynamic as the tools they use.
Social Media is now playing an enormous role in finding, vetting and
securing candidates for today’s recruiter. 94% of them are
leveraging social media as part of their candidate search with 87%
stating that LinkedIn is their ‘candidate’ social medial platform of
choice.
Yet it takes them less than 6 seconds on a profile to determine if a
prospective candidate is worthy of future consideration. So it’s not
enough to have a LinkedIn profile… IT needs to stand out!
If a job seeker is to be found, considered relevant and a viable
candidate, then a solid LinkedIn profile is a ‘Must Have’.
