As we know, Web 2.0 will quickly make Enterprise 2.0 a new dynamic place where meeting and sharing information with colleagues becomes possible from everywhere in the country. So now, why not extend this to the recruiting process? Today in EWeek, Deborah Perelman wrote the article Leveraging Web 2.0 to Recruit. Many of the recruiting processes now will soon out date, as they are standard and provide very little feedback to candidates. Web 2.0 will make it easier to communicate back and forth throughout the recruitment process, as Zach Thomas states below:
"It makes the whole process a lot more transparent. It puts the community in control of the information out there, versus the traditional 'here is the position and we will tell you what it is all about,' where the candidate can't ask questions or see for themselves," Thomas said.
The potentials that social networking will bring to the recruitment world will impact those who remain on the Web 1.0 spectrum. How will this affect your business in the future?
