This session helps to cut through all the social media noise and get to the heart of what's really working in terms of recruiting. 

The hunt for talent has changed -- millions of recruiters now use social media to tap personal contacts and find top talent. While it's no doubt the hot way to find the next great employee, is it working any better than traditional recruiting tactics? How closely are job seekers paying attention to social media when it comes to finding employers, and are they extending their own search for positions on social platforms? And at the end of the day what player in the job market has the most power? HR, recruiting and social media experts Robert Hohman, Steve Boese, and  John Sumser give the inside scoop on how people should be using social media tools and apps to their benefit, and insight on ways companies and job seekers are utilizing these social media platforms and job boards.
