I agree with you: unless recruiters embrass social they will be left well behind. Whilst I am an advocate of social I do not see it as the be-all and end-all and it certainly won't replace any of the 'traditional' hiring processes, but to ignore it entirely is to remain static. And in this climate nobody can afford to remain static. Thanks, Ashley. I agree with you: unless recruiters embrass social they will be left well behind.

Recruiters need to embrace Social Media and lose the paranoia. Everyone can find a contact these days, it's how you use the information available and build communities / captive audiences. Employers can advertise directly, but they are reliant on candidates approaching them. As recruiters we take it a step further and take the vacancy to the candidate, ultimately furthering our clients reach. A well judged article Simon.
