The Destination for Great Recruiters

A lot does not work….
• Blog Focus for Company
• Twitter Lead Generation cards
• In-Market Display ads
Social is not everything
I hate networking!!
Our best recruiters are still those who are not great on technology.
I hate networking!!
The new world – you go to the right places talk
about the right things…all online
TAKEAWAYS
Key messages • It’s just another communication channel
• Be authentic, passionate and share your knowledge
• Accept much isn’t measurable so manage your time
• Remember – client, candidate, employee
• Facts Tell, Stories Sell
