LINKSTERS SEND 110 TEXT MESSAGES A DAY

HOW WE COMMUNICATE

Not only are we using different tools to communicate, the way we communicate is changing. Brevity, casual language and visual aids are valued over wordy, formal communications.

And, studies show that “Linksters” think very differently about privacy, freedom of speech and information transparency.

DON’T BE SCURRED

Harvard Business Review

Any organization can get lucky and have a single successful implementation of social media. Social leaders, on the other hand, build collaborative capability through a learning process that starts with understanding their current attitude and taking the steps required to building confidence and trust. This turns a single social media success into a sustained source of competitive advantage..

FACEBOOK FOR BRANDING

Post jobs, feature hot jobs, video previews

Your fans want to hear from you – they will consume anything new, original or interesting

Think beyond your website; use Facebook to keep candidates and clients informed about your successes, your process, your team

Target potential candidates and clients through Facebook’s powerful advertising platform. And, the new search platform promises to be equally powerful

LINKEDIN FOR CONNECTING

LinkedIn is a great place to post jobs, but ensure that existing employees repost them for maximum effectiveness

Use the status updates to engage your network; participate in groups for additional visibility and to broaden your network

Your company page may be the first place potential candidates or clients find you. Make sure your followers can find additional information about your company

Consider LinkedIn targeted advertising programs, including display ads and email targeting, to reach your audience

TWITTER FOR SOURCING

Post jobs and engage your followers. A steady stream of job postings is not interesting!

Twitter is one of the best places to keep up with industry trends and learn from experts. Direct your followers to CRM-enabled links

Twitter users often do not overlap with LinkedIn users. Twitter profiles – even inactive ones – are a great source of passive candidates

Grow your network through targeted Twitter advertising,

GOOGLE+ FOR PAGERANK

Post jobs, feature hot jobs, video previews

Share photos, videos, articles and more. Provide an intimate overview of what it’s like to work for your company.

Build an advanced search to find profiles. Use Rapportive + Gmail to find contact info.

Universities are among the first to jump on the Google Hangout band wagon. Schedule a hangout in advance or create an impromptu event.

PROFESSIONAL SOCIAL

Github is a code repository – open source developers share code and collaborate on technical projects.

Quora is a Q&A site edited and organized by users. The site has over 500,000 registered users.

Check out your career site Google Analytics – an increasing number of candidates are finding your site via mobile device; smartphone or tablet. How does your website rate on mobile platforms? Want to create an app? Proceed with caution. Launching an app requires extensive marketing as well as technology expertise.

For 20 million Foursquare users, “checking in” in is a way of life. Combined with GPS-enabled apps like Highlight or Sonar, location based apps is a powerful – and sneaky – way to discover passive talent

APPS OR MOBILE ENABLED?
