Recruitment is increasingly competitive but social has opened up a new avenue to set you apart from competitors and access fresh talent pools.

The way people seek jobs has evolved with increasing levels of candidates seeking information online and through social channels. Recruitment through social media isn't all about posting jobs on LinkedIn, but also about working creatively to use social networks to attract candidates to your company.

What are the benefits?

By using social media you can:

• Reach candidates in a passive environment, meaning that people find out about your jobs even if they aren't actively looking
• Reduce barriers to application resulting in a higher number of applicants by using 'apply with Linkedin' buttons
• Reduce overall cost of the recruitment process
