One of the hardest tasks for any online business is finding great, reliable, and ultra-talented employees.
Especially if you’re looking for specific profiles that are hard to find because everyone wants them. Businesses and recruitment firms use all possible channels they have: their own databases, connections, online and offline media etc.
I don’t have to tell you that you also see more and more job offerings on social media like Twitter and of course via LinkedIn.
It’s interesting to follow what I call the Klondike cycle of Social Media. The gold rush started by wanting to make the first giants, YouTube, Facebook, Myspace, Ning, Linkedin, Twitter, etc.
Then the social media marketing consultants boomed, experts, gurus, ninja’s everywhere claiming to be able to turn conversations into gold for companies.
Now I have a feeling that there is a major boom in tools to help all the consultants and companies managing and monitoring those conversations turning into gold.
