Meeting Job Seekers Where They Are (Glassdoor)


The job search has largely moved online, but that doesn't mean that all online
channels are considered equal. Half of workers/job seekers (51 percent) say their
preferred source for finding a relevant new job opportunity is an online job site,
such as Glassdoor. Other preferred sources included: 
• Hearing about the job from a friend (45 percent)
• Finding the job on a company’s careers site (35 percent)
• Having a recruiter or hiring manager reach out to them (34 percent)
• Discovering a new job via social media (20 percent) and
• Hearing about a job through a staffing agency (19 percent)
Online channels also proved to be the most popular resources for researching
opportunities, with more than half of workers/job seekers (53 percent) saying job
search websites are where they would look for information on a company they might
like to work for, outranking word of mouth (43 percent), professional networking
sites (35 percent), social media (32 percent), personal networking (32 percent) and
company careers pages (26 percent).
“Job seekers are taking control of their own destiny by harnessing the power of
information to find the right job and employer for them," said Coucoules. "Today,
job seekers are more informed than ever. By helping prospective talent find and
access the information they want, you’ll be helping your recruiting efforts."

Cons of Online Recruiting

concern was “too few applicants” (8.5%) and “doesn’t reach a broad audience”
(6.5%).
