Recruiting for Today’s Workforce

Recently, human resources (HR) recruiters have utilized their company Web site job board, online job boards, social media, and other industry-specific job boards or Web sites to fill all types of positions. As an HR recruiter, you are in need of new employees for a forecasted expansion to a call center that is opening up in 2 months and that is just 20 miles away. Think creatively and find some new, unique, and innovative ways to find candidates. Research and address the following:

• Discuss 2 new technology options that the company could use to find candidates.
• Would you use these new options to also locate new managers for the new location? Why or why not?
• Have you found statistical evidence of the new options for finding qualified candidates?
• Do you feel like these new options are trends? Why or why not?
