Companies need to invest and explore how they can tap into Social media to find and attract top talent.
Choosing a defined approach all the way is not recommended. However, careful analysis have to be made for before initiating Social media networking on the guidelines of 4Cs i.e. Content – Collaboration – Community and Collective Intelligence
Social media is much more than just another channel and by integrating it with the overall employer branding strategy, companies can attract top talent that can grow with the company
