Comment on: Topic 'Recruiting using Social Media': them an employee. Recruiter finds a person who can do the job, wants the job and wants to work for the company. Where to start. Call somebody who does that job. The worst thing that can happen is that one makes a contact with someone. It took about 30 seconds. So it's no. The worst thing that can happen is that i have a name and number on my call list for this kind of job. The next time i call, the person chats a bit about the market, talks a bit about his own job and company. The worst thing that can happen is that i know more about the company he works for and what is going on with him. The objective is to drain the swamp not make friends with all the aligators so one can talk about how many aligators they know. No doesn't mean no contact. No doesn't mean no information. No is the fastest way to get to yes. When i hear no i change the subject. "Hey no problem ,"By the way John, did you see that the city is getting a new plant?" Really hadn't heard about it. I will shoot you an email after i meet with them next week and give you the scoop if you would like." Yes, good. Me too i always like to know about new industries or expansion projects does your company have anything on the board for expansion? "Hey that's good news." Nice visiting with you , what is your email and i'll let you know what i find out about the new plant. Contact made, interest generated, (interest does not have to be about a job just interest in hearing from me again) info gained, reason to recontact. Time spent 5 -10 minutes maybe. How long did you spend jack donkeying around on twitter, facebook, digging through online data bases of outdated resumes for people who have long since taken another job, tracking them down with a google search or a linkedin search and writing sexy search strings that yielded the obits, people in foreign countries who once worked in a city in another lifetime. If the objective is to drain the swamp, you have a sump pump that works and works fast why mess around with trying to suck the water out through a straw standing on your head in a fog of a billion other people with straws. Sure eventually you will drain the swamp but you also may be known as the worlds greatest sucker. Pun intended. Add power to the sump pump when you can but i can see no reason to end up with a whole tool box of shiney new toys that take more time and expertise to operate just so i can say i have a big tool box and waste all my time playing with my tools. And as far as mobile recruiting or mobile a lot of things. I am not the slightest bit interested in trying to do business squinting like a myopic frog at a three inch screen that jumps all over the place to the Dunkin Doughnut ad if you breathe on it wrong. the damn thing is a phone i talk into it and somebody talks back. I figured out about 35 years ago that it was possible to make a placement or two by going to every chamber of commerce function, joining every professional group on the planet, writing a column in the paper, speaking at college groups. See we called it "social recruiting". I figured out about 34 years ago that if stayed in my office, picked up the phone book and started calling people i could make a whole lot of placements without meeting all those realtors at the chamber, having to do fund raisers for all those professional groups, writing a job ad instead of an column and i would get all those college kids anyway because we all know they don't listen to a damn thing anybody tells them until they are desperate. Some things don't change ,just because somebody stuck the word "media" in the middle of "social recruiting". The only difference in then and now is that when you stick" media" in it one can do it in their night shirt without combing their hair. And what's social about that.
