“Too many recruiters are forgetting the “social” part of social media, and are losing out on the trust and relationships that are so important for successful
candidate sourcing. Being able to deliver a message your ideal candidate wants
to hear is a crucial step that often gets missed in the “quantity over quality” efforts
of many recruiters today.
