This Town's Not Big Enough For The Two of Us: Social Media Marketing (SMM) vs. Traditional Marketing
I don't think #HR is ready for #socialmedia - what's the motivation? #SHRM
Ryan: Internally - This helps employees connect. #socialmedia helps tremendously! #shrm09
Ryan: Look at this slide. #SocialMedia and employment branding. #shrm09 http://twitpic.com/8vl2p
Feel free to chime in with advice for people just getting started in #socialmedia. What would you have done different? #smacksa
RT @Facelogic: I think #socialmedia makes all of us more transparent and real. No work profile vs. private profile. We should be 1 #HR
RT @ATLRecruiter: great stuff from @CincyRecruiter: http://bit.ly/1bsfYT Social Media for HR Professionals Beyond LinkedIn #socialmedia #HR
Truly... #socialmedia should be empowering. Be yourself. Attract a group based on who you are. Why should we pretend anymore?
RT @Marc_Meyer: What is the feng shui of social media? #socialmedia
@JohnAFlood So... perhaps opening clear lines of communication would be the first step. #socialmedia
RT @JohnAFlood: @glenwilson2 #socialmedia Now that is very true. It's one of the few apprenticeship systems left....
@glenwilson2 "Learned on the battle field" Yes, they are! We could probably help a bit though. ;-) #socialmedia
@dariasteigman Good point! So, for employers to acquire talent, they also have to turn off privacy settings! #socialmedia
RT @dariasteigman: RE Q3, biz world is restructuring With #socialmedia, job applicants will ask more from cos we're interested in.
RT @cmwooll: Both. I want to know the person behind the logo. How do they interact? Will they respond to my creativity? #socialmedia
@YatPundit Haha! #socialmedia
@chrisbrogan And the balance between the two is what makes the person. The full picture is why someone succeeds. Right? #socialmedia
RT @chrisbrogan 2 question 3 #socialmedia It means we'll see your offline work self as well as your online and will seek a better alignment.
@gwen_nugent Unfortunately, the term appropriate is very relative. Our generational filters have changed. #socialmedia
RT @gwen_nugent: ollege students? shouldn't they know "appropriate" by now? Maybe start in high school?!! #socialmedia
@cmwooll So... are you referring to the larger company or the internal employees? #socialmedia has a face? Right?
RT @cmwooll: @dariasteigman As an employee, "lack" of cos digital footprints speaks volumes too. #socialmedia
@liam_in_sf But, in my humble opinion, that's not a terrible thing. Lots of avenues for everyone! #socialmedia
@liam_in_sf And I'm sure there is more of that to come. When people are themselves, it can sometimes be shocking! #socialmedia
RT @liam_in_sf: There is definitely a fine line... I am always shocked by the type of info people put about themselves online #socialmedia
RT @dariasteigman: I want a complete picture to make a job decision. #socialmedia helps cos get this; we need cos digital footprints too.
For that matter... if #socialmedia helps an employee compete, who is teaching the job seekers how to use the tool well?
@glenwilson2 And I wonder how good of a job we are doing at teaching them that. #socialmedia
RT @glenwilson2: yes students will need appropriate SM presence, more importantly they need to be taught what is appropriate #socialmedia
With the Gen Y versus the rest of the working world question in mind. Do you have to bend your privacy concerns to compete? #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter @dariasteigman agree - digital footprints don't wash away easily #socialmedia
RT @ATLRecruiter: people need to make habit of Googling themselves, reviewing FB priv sttgs etc - like checking the mail #socialmedia
@Marc_Meyer And... a level of competition about who is least private. #socialmedia
RT @Marc_Meyer: If all the Gen Yers are transparent and everyone else is not... what happens then? #socialmedia: answer: distrust
So... are the college student of today and going forward going to have to build "appropriate" #socialmedia presence as opposed to resumes?
RT @ATLRecruiter: even w/priv settings I still wouldn't put anything on FB you wouldn't be comfortable w/if were leaked/hacked #socialmedia
RT @shoppingann: @theredrecruiter Some college career fairs require that you are upfront about background checks that involve #socialmedia.
RT @ariherzog: Depends. Facebook does not promote the fact one can have different privacy settings. Education is needed. #socialmedia
RT @ameyk: will GenY conform to existing privacy standards as they become the decision makers? Or re-write the book? #socialmedia
RT @dariasteigman: It doesn't matter if "Gen Y" cares about privacy as long as someone who does is doing the hiring. #socialmedia
@Marc_Meyer Do we have a contest about who can be most transparent? #socialmedia
@Marc_Meyer If all the Gen Yers are transparent and everyone else is not... what happens then? #socialmedia
@Marc_Meyer Wow! That's a big question. Is Gen Y changing expectations? #socialmedia
RT @Marc_Meyer: @theredrecruiter Do you really think Gen Y cares about discretion and social media? seriously...#socialmedia
@cmwooll That's a great question! Do we have to inform them that their partying photos decided their hiring fate? #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter @gwen_nugent How would candidate know they got passed for social media presence? #socialmedia
@CrystalPeterson Wouldn't someone realize if you had two? #socialmedia
@ariherzog Okay... so... People need to check their privacy settings and then feel free to share? #socialmedia
RT @ATLRecruiter: individuals need to learn *discretion* - and companies need to respect room for privacy/space/fun! #socialmedia
@cmwooll Yes, there is. Not everyone knows how to use that setting, unfortunately. #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter There is a FB privacy setting for other people tagging you in photos. #socialmedia
@ameyk But then... don't you risk being non-existent. That could hurt too! #socialmedia
RT @ameyk: best may be to keep to urself wat u don't want others to see. line more & more blurred from professional/personal #socialmedia
@gwen_nugent How would it be different from them expressing values not congruent with the company within an interview? #socialmedia
RT @gwen_nugent: @theredrecruiter im afraid a candidate that was passed on could make a case for it #socialmedia (legal ramifications)
RT @Marc_Meyer: @CraigKessler @theredrecruiter If Im a company, do I hire or recruite via Facebook? #socialmedia
@jw_social1 Our new "public records" #socialmedia
The real question with Facebook (as I've heard it from friends) is when you get "tagged" in a photo... oops! #socialmedia
@dariasteigman I think that they matter... someone had to put them up. #socialmedia
RT @dariasteigman: @glenwilson2 Should FB photos matter? No. But they do, so we can't pretend we don't make snap judgments. #socialmedia
@Marc_Meyer With that said... perhaps you are applying for a company that doesn't mind parties. Perhaps. #socialmedia
@gwen_nugent Are there any legal ramifications from reviewining someone's #socialmedia presence? Careerbuilder lets you now.
RT @gwen_nugent: Judgements are made -intentionally or not. Is it better not to look if you can't be objective (and legal?) #socialmedia
@ATLRecruiter Perhaps we should... but, as more and more hiring authorities learn of the reach... will they resist? #socialmedia
So... perhaps Facebook needs an "employer" privacy preference going forward? #socialmedia
RT @glenwilson2: FB u connect w/candidate, do u look at pictures and judge them, where do we draw line on info to consider? #socialmedia
@RonDuquette And what would "out there in the open" mean to you? #socialmedia
RT @RonDuquette: @cmwooll agreed. I only look to see if things are out there in the open.. not to invade. #socialmedia
@cmwooll That's a common feeling among many... but, is the expectation changing by the employers due to the growth of #socialmedia?
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter I don't want to work for a company that wouldn't respect my home life has a degree of privacy. #socialmedia
@jw_social1 The idea that we will find our perfect position by being open speaks to me. That seems logical. #socialmedia
RT @jw_social1: The company moreso, but as mentioned, the person might be able to find a "best fit" company by being trans. #socialmedia
@dariasteigman And what would be the best way for a company to be "open"... "transparent" to a candidate? #socialmedia
@cmwooll Perhaps PRIVACY settings are part of the answer... but, we all know when we are partially blocked. #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter Or perhaps they accept, and they make use of PRIVACY settings :) #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter Q2 - Co & Recruit should be screening each other. Should benefit both. #socialmedia
RT @gwen_nugent: @theredrecruiter It should be a win-win. they are looking for a job aren't they? #socialmedia
RT @RonDuquette: @theredrecruiter Right, a good candidate can disclose everything #socialmedia
@kenburbary That's a great point! So, if the candidates "have" to be transparent, so should the companies, right? #socialmedia
RT @kenburbary: Confront it head on, and be yourself. #socialmedia gives jobseekers to tools to discover internal info of companies too.
This kind of builds on our last question. #socialmedia
Q2: Who benefits the most from a candidate being transparent? #socialmedia
RT @dariasteigman: Full cycle helps cos. form a picture (and v-v). What do we want co. to know? SM profile has to mesh. #socialmedia
RT @ameyk: @theredrecruiter Yes. You need to be yourself. Anything else can (and probably will) backfire. #socialmedia
RT @glenwilson2: what type of info? it is okay to keep some things private, some employees choose to share too much #socialmedia
@cmwooll But... the question is... what perception is left if they do not. Is privacy a thing of the past? #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter Candidate should not accept 'friend' request from recruiter without a relationship... #socialmedia
@jw_social1 I would say so... let's face it, #socialmedia can be a huge opportunity to be who we really are!
AND... if the candidate does not accept... are they hiding something? What would be the perception? #socialmedia
AND... if the candidate does not accept... are they hiding something? What would be the perception? #socialmedia
So... the hot button seems to be Facebook? Should a recruiter be able to "friend" a candidate? Thanks @Marc_Meyer #socialmedia
So... let's touch on the different avenues. Facebook seems like a hot button. #socialmedia
@jasonbreed Well... they can in #socialmedia world!
RT @cmwooll: Maybe not transparency... but culture. Do you really want any employee that is hiding info from you? #socialmedia
@ameyk That's interesting. So, being transparent... the way we really are would help us attract the "right" company for us? #socialmedia
RT @ameyk: I think too that transparency has to be 2 way street. Find the more open/honest I am the more I get back. #socialmedia
@dariasteigman Are you referring to when we would interview in person as opposed to being pre-interviewed online? #socialmedia
@CrystalPeterson So... not level, but profession type should dictate your level of openness? That could be very true! #socialmedia
RT @CrystalPeterson: I think so. I recruit for ad professionals. We want all of our folks involved in #socialmedia, so we expect a more
RT @dariasteigman: Maybe it's not transparency, but creating an online, consistent brand, targeted messaging to attract cos. #socialmedia
@jw_social1 Why would a non-transparent company request transparency? #socialmedia
@dariasteigman So... it's your online brand! That's a good way of looking at it! #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @jasonbreed Dominos is another example of how entry level employees are at risk of reputation damage #socialmedia
@jasonbreed So... as employees (at all levels) gain exposure... the need for transparency balances? #socialmedia
RT @Marc_Meyer: @CrystalPeterson does that mean you'd friend them on facebook? #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter C-level execs have more influence...more at risk... so, need full disclosure #socialmedia (Great point!)
@dariasteigman Okay define that then. What is a healthy level of transparency for a candidate? #socialmedia
@CrystalPeterson That's a great point! So, if you work in #socialmedia, you must reveal. Is that changing for jobs outside of the realm?
RT @ameyk: depend on specific situation. Passive's less so then actives, but overall a gradual revealing process #socialmedia
@cmwooll Good point. So, what is the difference? How do the expectations change? #socialmedia
RT @cmwooll: @theredrecruiter Transparency depends on level of candidate. Entry = minimal C-level complete transparency #socialmedia
@RonDuquette "changing times" rather ;-) #socialmedia
@RonDuquette Agreed! So, with the changes times... are you at an advantage the more transparent you are? #socialmedia
Once again... Q1: What level of transparency is expected of a candidate? #socialmedia
Q1: What level of transparency is expected of a candidate? #socialmedia #hr
