INFOGRAPHICS: USAGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA BY RECRUITERS IN THE US


75% des entreprises (US) trouvent leurs candidats sur les Réseaux Sociaux. les DRH n’y vont pas chercher les photos de soirées arrosées comme le prétend le cliché, mais plutôt le dynamisme et le potentiel des candidats. La Northern Illinois University a montré qu’une analyse de profil Facebook montre mieux l’adéquation d’un candidat à un poste que l’analyse détaillée de sa personnalité et de son CV.

Une autre étude de la Cornell University a montré que les candidats trichent moins sur leur profil LinkedIn que sur un CV traditionnel (ce qui est normal puisque le CV sur LinkedIn est public.)

Showcase Community Involvement: A Recruitment Marketing Lesson in Giving Back

January 3rd, 2012
Use Recruitment Marketing to Tell Candidates Your Story About Charity Work

When competing for talent in a tough market, intangibles like company culture can help give you the edge when it comes to recruiting and retaining the best. A recent study from Deloitte found that 61% of Millennials who rarely or never volunteer consider a company’s commitment to the community when choosing an employer.

While there’s traditional community involvement and providing new ways for employees to volunteer, social giving projects create a unique opportunity to give back, showcase your company’s dedication to the community and grow your talent network at the same time.

Decide What Matters

Flipping their motto “Chase What matters” to “Decide What Matters,” Chase’s Community Giving program recently gave $3 million in charitable donations to over 100 charities – all based on votes. The highest-voted charity received $250,000 for their cause, and the other top 99 also received funds.

Recruitment Marketing Lesson in Giving Back

While your organization might not have the resources to donate millions of dollars, you can still find ways to creatively leverage your existing community involvement through social media and other recruitment marketing techniques. Another great example of giving back via social media is SCA’s Red Cross campaign, which donated 1 Euro to the Red Cross for each new fan gained throughout the month of November.

Chase’s Community Giving campaign also exemplifies lesson number nine from our consumer to recruitment marketing campaign lessons – making content sharable. Because different charities and their supporters were awarded funds based on their number of votes, Chase made it easy to share, “like” and comment on favorites.

By following their lead and giving back to the community, potential employees are more likely to consider you an employer of choice. And remember, don’t be shy about sharing charity and volunteer opportunities with your talent community. You can post photos and testimonials on your corporate careers site or Facebook careers page for more visibility.
