I choose this topic is because more and more job seekers will go on social media to search for job. Even employers are putting recruitments advertisement on social media. Even like some of the jobs looking for admin staff, telemarketing staff and even sales staff the employer will just post on facebook and ask job seekers to contact them or send resume through their email address. Social media is a rising and evolving force within recruitment and resourcing. Firms are using the tools, despite the lack of knowledge, awareness and strategy and for differing reasons.
Personal experiences and perspective:
Before I study for my degree program, I search my jobs through internet, from Job Street, job central, jobs DB and ST jobs. Now have 1 more new web site call head hunter. Even Kaplan is I know from internet. That’s why I choose my degree program at Kaplan and not other private schools. Looking for jobs through Job Street and job central is easier and broader, as you can search by the sector or field you want, the job position level, the job type like full time, part time or internship, even search by countries, entering the minimum monthly salary you want, years of working experience you have and just click search. Then it will come out lots of choices. This is much easier than looking and flipping through the newspapers, and 1 by 1 calling. From the internet we just have to send our resume and wait for their calls to go for interviews. And have a better view of the job scope, better understanding about the companies and what type of recruitment members are they looking for; like qualifications. And after sending the resume, you can see how many people had applied and how many percentage of chance you are getting this job. And now you also can download the application in your smart phone and do a job search while you are waiting for friends or public transports.
