It has become quiet obsolete that whenever a vacancy arises, companies have to wait for the participants to send their resumes. And out of a thousand CVs, hardly top 20 make it to the interview process. To avoid this time consuming selection process, companies are using their digital presence to attract the right talent for their organization. They are proactively targeting potential talented employees on various digital platforms and social media taking help of any virtual recruiter.
When it comes to job hunting, we generally have this concept in mind that a worker searches for vacant position, send the resume and wait for the interview date. From decades ago, people have been searching jobs through this typical method only. But as the world has seen a boom of social media, the job hunting process has also evolved.
Social media has been playing a very vital role in aiding companies to provide the best talent of the market. Usually online digital platforms are used by companies to recruit the right match for the company. Instead of waiting for people to apply, firms can directly hop to any online platform and find the right person to match the requirement. Platforms like LinkedIn are majorly used for this purpose. The advantages are great as it saves time and cost for the companies. Previously companies relied on their local networks but now it’s just a matter of few clicks to find the potential candidate.
This is very helpful for new startup companies and average scale organizations as they might not see the rush of resumes in their mailboxes. It is easier for them to use online platforms to hunt for their team members. Workers can also benefit from the rise in recruiting done digitally. They might have companies sending them requests that they didn’t thought of applying but now can give it a try.
This trend of online hiring has given rise to the need of good HR recruiters for the company. It has shed some light on the importance of a well-developed HR department and experience in recruiting people. This is more appropriate for technology based firms.
This trend of online recruiting doesn’t seem to slow down as companies are becoming more selective about their hiring needs to find the right talent. The allure of right candidate has broaden the horizons of hiring as now companies tend to search other attributes also that they didn’t thought about before. Firms should search a wide network and should be ready to explore candidates who look different in terms of the important factors that are essential for the vacant position. Companies are looking for various ways to ensure an edge over their competitors in terms of better human resource. Since the competitors are also searching for the best talent in the same pool of network, finding the right match is tricky at times.
However, this trend doesn’t support the idea that all hiring should be done through one platform. Some entry level positions are still filled using the old traditional methods depending on the requirement of the vacant position.
