With 98% of recruiters now using LinkedIn to help source and screen candidates, social media and the job search are together, it seems, forever.
But what are recruiters and hiring managers really looking for? How do they decide who makes the cut? How exactly do job seekers leverage social media in a way that places them near the top of the “must hire” pile?
This infographic from Jobjuice, while going to great lengths to explain why job hunters now rely on social so much, answers those questions and many more.
Job seekers: we encourage you to pay particular attention to the sections that cover how hiring managers are using social media to screen candidates and the social media strategies that are working best for proactive job seekers.
Don’t be invisible. Embrace the social job search… get noticed… and build a fulfilling career.
