Online Recruitment is Increasingly Popular
10 percent of jobs are filled through the Internet in the US, according Terri Bonar-Stewart, CEO of a Cincinnati based consulting company. While networking remains the dominant form of recruitment, the Internet is becoming a popular alternative recruitment medium.
One of the main advantages recruiting online is the fact that the Internet is active for 24 hours a day, 365 days a year thus there is maximum exposure to potential employees. In addition, the advertising reach of the medium is both greater than the print medium or television and also more easily targeted.
The Internet allows companies to identify a specific demographic and target that demographic group through specialised Web sites and niche portals. Additionally companies can link to sites where the ideal candidate for a given job might be found perusing.
The Internet also allows companies to adopt multi-tiered strategies and post adverts in several relevant locations across the Web, not just the company Web site.
However, when advertising online it’s important to be aware of the potentially huge response for a single advert. To avoid confusion, the application process should be databased and made as simple as possible. Providing an email address is not enough.
The online recruitment business has grown exponentially since the Internet began to take off in 1995.
To see an example of a recruitment agency online take a look at KHS Jobworld.
