There Is A Better Way
Only 10 years ago companies shifted their recruiting from offline to online, following candidates as they shifted their job search from the newspaper to the job boards.
For major employers who recruited nationally, this simplified things because you didn't have to place your jobs in dozens of newspapers all over the country, and could simply post your positions to a couple of job boards.
Follow the talent
The Internet has once again evolved and the marketplace of talent is shifting its job and career information searches away from the job boards to a new combination of interactive resources to network themselves and find their next employer.
