Social Recruiting? Yes, but...

I think I'm pretty hip about recruiting using social media. But this article sort of lights me up - and shows little respect for the recruiting or HR functions of the company. While online reputation is important for a social marketer, I want more than street cred if I'm running the search. I want real accomplishments in the non-social world of marketing, and I want a track record that shows me this person is analytical and data-driven - that's a key success factor for anyone trying to make a difference for my company's/clients' bottom line. http://blogs.enterasys.com/hiring-a-social-marketer-no-paper-resume-accepted/ If I can help your company hire a smart social marketer or some other technically qualified role, drop me a note at info@broadbandhr.com
