Using social networking sites for recruiting

Online Recruitment Magazine, www.onrec.com , puts together several conferences every year where the best and the brightest in the online recruitment industry get together and share what they know. In Sept. they had their big OnRec Expo Conference in Chicago, "Global Summit for Online Recruitment", and Patty went to check out all the latest buzz.

Some of that buzz included the skinny on the social networking sites, such as Myspace.com and Facebook.com, and how employers are using these sites in their recruiting efforts. Steve Rothberg, his site is www.collegerecruiter.com, gave a great presentation about this and you can view the video online. We recommend it.

And we'll be sure to keep you posted about the new info regarding these sites, other cool sites, trends and insights.
