Do you use social media?

// January 26th, 2012

Results from Pharma Times’ 400 person careers survey showed that Linked In, Twitter and Facebook rank highly in terms of usage but 43% say their employer does not utilise social media.

Little has changed from 2010. Linked In is still number one as a social media tool with 42% while Twitter 29% is more popular than Facebook 28%. The introduction of Google + placed them with 10%.

Flame Health and Flame Pharma utilise social media networks such as Linked In, Twitter, Facebook and Google +. We feel these sites are a great way of communicating with candidates on a personal level. A large percentage of people access their social networking sites on a daily basis and if we can communicate new opportunities to them this way and successfully find them a new role then it is fantastic news all around!

Social Media Networking – the Effects on Recruitment

// November 3rd, 2010

The REC’s National Convention this week provided the clearest indication yet of the impact that technology and social networks are having on recruitment.

Feedback from the specialised recruiters within the REC’s marketing, media and creative industries sector group (MMC) has emphasised that technology advancements will not undermine the value of ‘face to face’ relationships.

The ever growing role of modern technology was highlighted by all main speakers at the REC’s annual convention. Social media strategist, Paul Harrison underlined that contemporary thinking and adoption of technology will lead to a new breed of recruiters and recruitment agencies.

The Chair of the REC MMC, Steve Hyde has commented:

“Using technology in the recruitment process is a reality and a change that we should proactively embrace. The world around us is evolving and as an industry we need to adapt”.

Flame Health has embraced social media networking. We feel it is important to embrace social media and it most definitely plays a key part in our recruitment strategy in terms of raising awareness of our business and our current opportunities on sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin. All of our social media sites provide you with easy access to new and exclusive opportunities that are currently in development across all our sectors we operate in.
