Five Advantages Social Media Brings To The Table
   Increased presence in
    social media elevates
    your brand
   It is important to
    participate and
    engage with prospects
    on others’ Facebook
    pages, LinkedIn
    Groups, Twitter
    accounts and Blogs
   Many Social Media
    communities allow
    members access to their
    total membership
   Your recruiters may use
    member email and other
    contact information to
    make direct and reciprocal
    contact with specific
    individuals of interest
   Your organization’s
    activity on Facebook,
    LinkedIn, Twitter and
    Blogs results in favorable
    organic ranking by
    search engines
   Drive traffic to your
    careers page and
    dramatically reduce your
    advertising budget
   LinkedIn users, friends on
    Facebook, and “followers”
    on Twitter (etc.) you can
    usually see the complete list
    of “friends of a friend”
   Your recruiters will find that
    each single social media
    contact becomes a gateway
    to a broader community –
    this is known as the viral
    networking effect
   Social Media
    communities are replete
    with “word on the street”
   Actionable intelligence
    gives you a heads-up
   Gain industry buzz,
    competitive intelligence
    on where the talent pool
    is headed, and other key
    indicators that don’t come
    through job boards
Five Initiatives You Must Have In Order To Succeed
Is a dialog not a broadcast
A message is not a conversation
1.   Go where your prospects are not where you think
     they should be - identify key talent channels within
     varied social media platforms: online Social
     Networking reflects our real-world social proclivities,
     we hang out with others who share our interests and
     affiliations
2.   Compose a Vision Statement describing a robust
     approach to social media recruitment to include
     acquisition, validation, analysis and application of
     actionable knowledge about key stakeholders for
     goal-setting, strategy formulation and support HR &
     recruitment missions
3.   Based on identification of channels above, craft a
     roadmap on how the entire organization should
     engage, connect and participate with skill-set
     relevant niche sites and online subject matter
     influencers to heighten identification of
     organizational employment brand
4.   Assign social media activities in each channel to key
     recruitment personnel with an emphasis on
     outreach, engagement and organic attraction of
     dedicated talent audiences
5.   Implement a communications strategy that fosters
     genuine candidate relationships utilizing Web 2.0 or
     “social media” channels of communication
Arbita Sourcing Master Class ERE Spring 2011
Are Social Networks A Useful Source of Candidates?
Arbita’s Recruitment Genome Project is the
                                       single most wide-reaching and thorough market
                                                research project ever conducted in the
                                                               recruitment community.

• Participate and get the reports for free
   No. Social Recruiting works only when you empower and
    deputize your entire organization to be recruiting evangelists.
   The way we’re doing it now there is little reward in comparison
    to amount of work. Most companies lack an effective strategy for
    sourcing, they depend on web-savvy recruiters “figuring it out”
    as they go, often reinventing the wheel.
   Blogs, among the largest and most active social networking
    destinations, are almost completely ignored by recruiters
   Most companies mistakenly push nothing but job ads to social
    networks, and in such frequency that it becomes noise nobody
    listens to, with little to no value-add
   70% of companies have no strategy for sourcing from niche and
    regional networks and 83% have no strategy for sourcing on
    blogs: both massive, yet remain widely overlooked
   Not all the tried-and-true methods have been supplanted: 90%
    say Employee Referral programs are much or somewhat better
    than social networks. The challenge going forward is how to
    make social networks and employee referral programs
    synergistic
RECRUITMENT MARKETING INITIATIVES   WHICH RECRUITMENT MARKETING
USED ON HARD-TO-FILL JOBS?          CHANNELS YIELDED MOST QUALIFIED?

   85% Job Boards                     24% Social Networks
   78% Social Networks                16% Recruiting Services
   49% Recruiting Services            11% Job Boards
   41% Sourcing Services              11% Sourcing Services
   24% SEO                            3% SEO
   16% SEM                            1% SEM
   28% “other”                        34% “other” (from “no idea” to
                                        word of mouth, referrals, internal
                                        sourcing team, etc.)
Stand out among billions:
 100% complete profile – fill summary and specialties
  with words/phrases describing your expertise
 Vanity URL (your name): make your profile “public”
     linkedin.com/in/shally or facebook.com/shally.steckerl
   Your past experience should go back 10 years
    Concisely explain what you did at each company
   Write/get recommendations, ask/answer questions
   Link to your websites (your jobs RSS, team blog, etc.)
   Remember, its not who you know it’s who knows YOU
   Don’t be a schitzo - be the same person on all your networks!
   You are your brand - skip the canned branding rhetoric, express your passion for your
    industry, your job, your role, branding will come naturally.
   Don’t sell, share. Advertising turns away connections. Share what is useful, interesting bits
    about you or your company or your product. You gain more if you do not sell. Don’t reveal
    the recipe but a little taste goes a long way.
   Be real. People want to relate with people, not “constructs” - be YOU, be honest about who
    you are and what you care about, and what you are doing, even an occasional tip about your
    favorite burger joint. You have multiple interests, express that.
   Write well. Bad spelling, grammar or punctuation, and hasty abbreviations should be
    avoided. You can’t always get it right but confident prose and concise eloquence go a long
    way to establish your brand.
                                         One you get it, stay committed. If you are going to do it then
                                         don’t just stick your feet in, jump all the way in and stick to it.
                                         This doesn’t mean you have to write constantly every day but
                                         stay involved at some level of frequently at least once every
                                         other week or even weekly.
1.   Participation in to many tools – You don’t
     want “naked profiles”
2.   Self Promotion Overload – Using SM
     platforms as a promotion platform doesn't
     provide anything to the community
3.   Setting & Forgetting – Time investment
     involved, continual process – Listen &
     Participate
Automation, metrics, and SEO/SEM
   Focus on balance, gradual and selective growth
   You can’t build infrastructure to address all objectives overnight
   Start with < than 1 hr a day until you can prove ROI, then increase slowly
   Divide activities into 80% high-priority projects and 20% pilot
    experiments
   High-priority examples:
     • Where employees come from, where they go when they leave
     • Key thought leaders in your target organizations’ ecosystems
   Pilot experiment example:
     • Identifying influential online social networking groups (LI, FB, Blogs)
     • What keywords do your target people Google most frequently



                                                                                 29
   Groundswell = "a social trend in which people use
    technologies to get the things they need from each other,
    rather than from traditional institutions like corporations."
   You need various types of involvement:
     • Creators (write/broadcast)
     • Critics (rate/review/comment/contribute)
     • Collectors (RSS feeds/tag)
     • Joiners (visit socnets/create profile)
     • Spectators (Read/Watch/Listen)

                                                                    30
   For social content
     • 21% of online US consumers are Creators
     • 37% are Critics
     • 69% are Spectators
   90-9-1 principle by Jake McKee:
     • 90% of visitors will just view content
     • 9% only comment or react to content
     • 1% create it

                                                 31
   Determine top 5 direct competitors, research their stats (who is linking to them)
   Competition is not who you think! Find what your potential customers are seeing! (Spyfu)
   Submit your URLs to directories like: Google, Yahoo, MSN and DMOZ, Jayde, Yelo, etc.
   Add your site to every known Blog Directory (Top 50 supplement in appendix)
   Conduct reciprocal link-building strategies with a goal of 15 new back links per week
   Generate inbound links from blogs, social networking sites, social bookmarking sites
   List yourself on Location Based Services (FB Places, Foursquare, Yelp, Gowalla, Whrrl)
   Get your content republished on Facebook Pages, Google Groups, Yahoo Groups
   Keyword research:
     • What do people type into Google when they look for your company?
     • What do people type into your website’s search box?


                                                                                               32
 Place keywords “in content” – write custom pages
  focused on keyword topics people use when they
  search for you
 Optimize keywords in
     Meta tags and title tag
     “in contexts” – embedded in hyperlinks, image alt tags
     HTML Site Map, XML Site Map, Robot.txt file
     One-way links, Directory links, Reciprocal links
   Update content every 30-60 days
    •   Minimum 1 new blogs post per week. Tuesdays and Thursdays are the best days to post blogs
    •   Publish press releases (many free PR submittal sites)
    •   Invite guest bloggers to write a blog, which will create back link from that persons site to yours
    •   NOTE: Do not duplicate websites or posts, this will get you penalized!


                                                                                                             33
1.   Video: in general they should focus on what real
     employees say and do, be unique, funny or highly
     informative if you want a chance of it going viral
2.   Engage with existing social networks and relevant
     sites with user-generated content (join
     conversations outside of YOUR sites)
3.   Enlist employees at or a level above your target
     roles and ask them for article and blog
     contributions (recruiters can feed them content
     ideas)

                                                          34
   Monitor your evangelists' content - and ask them to crosspost notable items of
    interest to your target audience (internal and external news).
   Source for newsworthy content that your audience will find interesting, push to your
    networks (use a social distribution tools like Hootsuite, Ping or Hellotxt).
   Maintain a mobile texting jobs/news list via SMS shortcode that people can
    subscribe to (Michael Marlatt recommends the free TextMarks service)
   Whenever you see an external online thread that hits one of your sweetspots, have
    your team comment simultaneously there (gets more attention than a single
    response)
   ClipIt, Diigo, Digg, Del.icio.us, share info you find interesting




                                                                                           35
   An ideal company careers page on Facebook has:
     •   A jobs RSS feed instead of multiple individual posts
     •   An integrated job search box
     •   Employee testimonials, company videos and photo streams
     •   Highlights of company’s recognition, awards and/or accolade
     •   Either promote and moderate good discussions or don’t have them at all
   Invite all your stakeholders and customers to be fans of the page so they can
    subscribe to your campaigns, and achievement updates
   Share competitive intelligence, blog posts, updates and news on your page(s)
   Groups are a team project! Various friends/colleagues can help manage and
    maintain it
   Focus your incoming content feeds on things of interest to your stakeholders
   Run your team’s Twitter accounts through your Facebook page
Keep it lively, especially in the beginning, or it will wither and potentially have a worse
impact on your brand than no page at all:

•   Invite industry-relevant peers to join the group to build critical mass of content and
    interest, and create opportunities for each other
•   Leverage employees, but encourage participation from evangelists outside the
    company. It will add authenticity to the group
•   Especially in the early-going, seed the group discussions with provocative, open-
    ended questions and informative items
•   Create user polls to gather feedback and opinions
   So you can be found easily, create a "parent" account for your recruitment team
    - e.g. @COMPANYcareers, @COMPANYjobs, or just @COMPANY
    (replace COMPANY with your company name/abbreviation).
   Add a mission statement up to 160 characters. (Be catchy and keyword-loaded. For
    the URL link field in the profile, create a Twitter landing page on your website that
    explains what you're about, list of subjects you tweet about, and links to your team
    members to encourage following.
   Create individual Twitter accounts for all team members who don’t already have
    one
   Ideally they should have your company name as part of their username
   Encourage existing Twitterers on your team to tweet for the company under those
    accounts.
(source: 8 Steps for Building Community on Twitter)
   Best in class example of group tweeting: twelpforce
   Retweet interesting items from your team and their followers/friends
    regularly. Retweeting good posts by those in your network boosts their
    ego and elicits cooperation/reciprocation: they see you pay attention to
    them and want to learn from them, not just self-promoting.
   Use a standard hashtag for any event where you will have a recruiting
    presence, so people can find you through your event promotion. Tweet
    positively about how great your event will be. Publicize the hashtag in
    your other promotional materials too.

(partial source: 8 Steps for Building Community on Twitter)
   To avoid logging in/out of accounts, get a multi-Twitter account
    application to manage them. Robust ones include:
     • HootSuite (see next section for details)
     • CoTweet lets you tag your replies as being from a particular person,
       and assign responses to team members
   Use connecttweet.com so team members can tweet something to their
    individual accounts which then gets auto-re-tweeted by the parent
    account
   Ask each team member to follow people who tweet in your target
    industry, function, etc.
   You want to know how many people clicked or forwarded
    your tweet so you know what content your target audience
    likes. You can use:
    •   As a standalone, use: bit.ly (uses j.mp which is the shortest of all)
    •   Hootsuite.com (uses ow.ly) has integrated metrics
   How often are you re-tweeted? Check your retweetrank
   See your people’s tweet frequency: tweetstats (or xefer)
   Subjective/comparison metrics
    •   Model top twitterers with TwitterFriends (see this how-to post)
    •   How influential are your tweets? Check Twinfluence and Klout
   Run very targeted, contextual recruitment
    advertising, to passive prospects:
    • Social Ads seen by users who visit your Facebook page or website
      site; contextual impression or per-click ads targeted in various
      ways with Metrics included
    • Direct Ads: Ad targeting parameters include location, age, gender,
      education, school, keyword bundles, employer, etc.
    • Facebook’s built-in analytics are detailed so you shouldn’t need to
      use Google Analytics for your FB ad campaigns
    • Best use is ads for specific jobs with landing page on an actual JOB
      not a “career site”


                                                                             42
   Use Facebook Ads to promote Company Page:
    • You can create ads that allow users to Like directly from the ad (and
        from a website) without leaving the page they are viewing
    •   They can click anywhere on your ad to access your Page
    •   When they Like your Page, a story is published in their wall (shared)
    •   This story is eligible to show in Highlights – more PR for your page
    •   Users will see friends who Like your Page in their version of the ad,
        increasing the relevance of your ad
    •   Check out Wildfireapp.com for promoting your Facebook Page




                                                                                43
   Target by
     Companies: specific companies or by industry and size
     Job Titles: by function and/or seniority (IC, Mgr, Dir, VP, CxO)
     Geographies: up to 10 countries, states and/or metro areas
     Groups: a specific or “named” LinkedIn group
   Pay by clicks or impressions, budget as low as $50
   LinkedIn’s analytics not enough – you’ll need Google
    Analytics or equivalent for detail
   Uncheck the LinkedIn Audience Network
                     Example: ad seen only by Accountants at
                    Manager or Director level, with companies
                   larger than 1,000 employees in Atlanta metro
                                                                         44
Finding passive talent from non-traditional sources
 A stream of actionable information is consistently
  being published instantly via tweets, status
  updates, blog posts, comments, etc.
 Focus on mission critical information from ad-hoc
  and real-time content such as that being
  generated by:
    • Attendees at conferences, events, tradeshows
       "i was at * CONFERENCE” YEAR
    • Employees and prospects at work, off-site meetings
       “at SAP office” or “at Lockheed”
    • Wishlist on Amazon and eBay: what books do they read or want to read?



                                                                              46
 Focus on keywords that most uniquely describe
  those targets (example: Hibernate vs. Jboss)
 Build a list of target data points like:
  • Key individuals and thought leaders
  • Names or nickname of teams or groups
  • Company and/or organization names
  • Brand names, products and categories
  • Key events and locations



                                                  47
   Job postings can reveal names of:
     • Clients, products, job titles
     • Internal divisions, groups or units
     • Internal software the company uses
   You can build org charts from job postings
     • From indeed.com “reports to” company:microsoft
     • Also use “reporting to” and other variations
     • Works with site:DOMAIN.com as well
   Have you ever applied for a competitor’s job using a “bait” resume? Make
    up an “ideal candidate” and see you can learn from their response


                                                                               48
   Focus on companies that employ people like the ones you need
   Not all your competitors hire the same people you need
   Zoominfo: free company search uncovers companies in your space
     • Keep to one term or phrase, e.g. cell biology (no need for “ “ marks)
   JigSaw: company search mixes industry, sub-industry, and
    geography, download up to 50,000 company mini-profiles free
   The “peer” method: search for 3+ entities in your target niche
     • Example: VMWare Citrix VirtualLogix
     • Above can find industry directories, analysts’ articles, other useful intel




                                                                                     49
 FOCUS ON: integrated search - Yauba.com searches
  real-time sources, websites, news, blogs, socnets,
  documents, images, videos, etc.
 See if the username exists on any social networks via:
    • Usernamecheck (60+ sites)
    • Knowem (120+ sites)
   Google’s Follow Finder: Enter the username of one of
    your targets and find similar twitter users

                                                           50
   Gist a person, group or any RSS feed by feeding it to
     Wordle.net (i.e. VMWare)
    No RSS feed? Grab all the text from recent press
     releases and paste into Wordle
    Wordle resumes from the same department to find
     common themes:

 What happens if you
feed a company’s Jobs
RSS feed into Wordle?
                                                             51
   Search for conversational phrases
    • "developed * applications”
    • I.work|worked.for|at|on|with
       add (company OR job title OR jargon)
    • "I|I'm work|worked|working for|at|on|with" COMPANY
    • "used to work" COMPANY or "used to work * COMPANY”
    • COMPANY ("my team" OR "our team")
    • "worked with" "contact me"
    • "is|was an * at COMPANY" and “I was|am an * at
      COMPANY”

                                                           52
   The “peer regression” method reveals people who
    influenced or were influenced by thought leaders
   Finding other names in image/PDF captions
    • “gary flake" ("l. to r." OR "l to r" OR "left to right" OR "r. to l." OR "r to l"
      OR "right to left" OR "back row:" OR "clockwise from")
    • Try names of events, groups or companies
   Use the 3+ name method on people:
    • "shally steckerl" “dave mendoza" "tim o'connor" “steve rath"
   References on blogs & social networks:
    • Google blogsearch for “and firstname lastname”

                                                                                          53
   What can we learn when we follow companies?
    • Who’s been promoted: find out why?
    • New hires: could it be department growth?
    • Departures: who else is ready to leave?
    • Job openings: does this mean new products?

   Company Search: enter an industry keyword, add a
    postal code, limit results by company size (employee
    count) and who’s hiring.
   Get notified of company changes


                                                           54
   With a free account you can no longer see the last
    names of your 3rd degree connections
   Even with a Corporate account you don’t see everyone
   FOCUS ON: search hacks – most search engines let
    you use the site: command to find profiles:
    • site:www.linkedin.com (inurl:pub OR inurl:in) biochemist monsanto -
      inurl:jsearch -inurl:events -inurl:"/companies/" -inurl:"/dir/" -inurl:"/jobs/"
      Recommended keywords are job titles and company names (each related
      group in a separate parenthetical clause – see below).



                                                                                        55
   Works only if you have a paid account (even the min.)
   First find the “key” of a private profile
   Then open a new browser windo
   Copy the text below:
    • http://www.linkedin.com/msgToConns?displayCreate=&connId=USERKEY
   Paste the above into the new browser window
   Replace USERKEY with the private profile’s key
   Press enter – but do NOT press send


                                                                         56
Of course you know about Twitter but how about:
   Twingly Microblogsearch: scans Twiiter and 11 others like Jaiku,
    Identica, Bleeper, Cirip, YouAre and more
   Facebook status updates on http://youropenbook.org/
   Look for natural phrases like “I’m an” or “I am a” within comments
     • Social Mention http://socialmention.com

     • BackType http://www.backtype.com

     • coComment http://www.cocomment.com


                                                                         57
   Images, files and other documents can be found using filetype:
   However… many are converted before being shared online
   Look for them in document repositories like
      Docstock
      Scribd
      SlideShare
      Toodoc

   Use this Custom Search from Arbita to search them with Google
   Or search them on Bing, just add your keywords


                                                                     58
   Good people get mentioned in interviews, as article
    authors, members of organizations, award winners
   Findarticles.com
   Highbeam.com
   Books.google.com
    • “Software Engineer” US Black Engineer & IT
    • "CPA for|with|at Deloitte“

   Check with your marketing, sales or legal dept. if they
    have Lexis-Nexis

                                                              59
 Image    search cleans SEO spam
  • Returns only web pages containing images with names or tags that
    match your search, eliminating much of the garbage.
  • Try this Google Images example!
  • Text used for image classification: snippet of text before/after image,
    anchor text on links pointing to image, “alt” text of image, and image url
 Check     out faces on Zuula Images 
  • Google, Bing, Exalead, Pixsy, Flickr, Photobucket, SmugMug, Picasa




                                                                                 60
 Bloggers or the local news often spill the beans
 and give juicy details on people they interview
  • Ex: "is an iphone developer"

 Search     transcripts of video via:
  • Blinkx.com
  • Video.google.com
  • Video.aol.com
  • Truveo.com
  • Vimeo.com



                                                     61
Tools to source, filter, grab and move data
   Google Alerts (www.google.com/alerts)
    •   Delivered to your email address; includes News, Blogs, Updates, Groups (discussions includes all Usenet
        newsgroups postings) or “everything”

   Monitor what’s going on with your company,
    competitors, and key people for free
   Once you get great results from a search engine, keep
    getting them just as you would resume agent results
    from a job board
   Setting up competitive job posting alerts using Indeed
    or SimplyHired
                                                                                                                  63
   Publish your searches into RSS feeds from Google
   Use iGoogle to organize them into tabs or
   Push feeds or alerts into Gmail then search with
    Google’s built-in sophisticated search engine 




                                                       64
   http://www.candidatesdirect.com/ $60/month

    your local PC which can easily be imported into any
    applicant or contact tracking system
   Attempts deep search for email & phone number
                                                            65

  • 3. To replenish, maintain or increase the talent ranks of an organization
  • 4. Section 1: Social Media - 10am to 1pm • Networking activity, content automation, metrics, SEO/SEM LUNCH  Section 2: Lab - 2pm to 5pm • Finding passive talent from non-traditional sources • Tools to source, filter, grab and move data, increase your productivity 4
  • 5. Five Advantages Social Media Brings To The Table
  • 6. Increased presence in social media elevates your brand  It is important to participate and engage with prospects on others’ Facebook pages, LinkedIn Groups, Twitter accounts and Blogs
  • 7. Many Social Media communities allow members access to their total membership  Your recruiters may use member email and other contact information to make direct and reciprocal contact with specific individuals of interest
  • 8. Your organization’s activity on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Blogs results in favorable organic ranking by search engines  Drive traffic to your careers page and dramatically reduce your advertising budget
  • 9. LinkedIn users, friends on Facebook, and “followers” on Twitter (etc.) you can usually see the complete list of “friends of a friend”  Your recruiters will find that each single social media contact becomes a gateway to a broader community – this is known as the viral networking effect
  • 10. Social Media communities are replete with “word on the street”  Actionable intelligence gives you a heads-up  Gain industry buzz, competitive intelligence on where the talent pool is headed, and other key indicators that don’t come through job boards
  • 11. Five Initiatives You Must Have In Order To Succeed
  • 12. Is a dialog not a broadcast A message is not a conversation
  • 13. 1. Go where your prospects are not where you think they should be - identify key talent channels within varied social media platforms: online Social Networking reflects our real-world social proclivities, we hang out with others who share our interests and affiliations
  • 14. 2. Compose a Vision Statement describing a robust approach to social media recruitment to include acquisition, validation, analysis and application of actionable knowledge about key stakeholders for goal-setting, strategy formulation and support HR & recruitment missions
  • 15. 3. Based on identification of channels above, craft a roadmap on how the entire organization should engage, connect and participate with skill-set relevant niche sites and online subject matter influencers to heighten identification of organizational employment brand
  • 16. 4. Assign social media activities in each channel to key recruitment personnel with an emphasis on outreach, engagement and organic attraction of dedicated talent audiences
  • 17. 5. Implement a communications strategy that fosters genuine candidate relationships utilizing Web 2.0 or “social media” channels of communication
  • 19. Are Social Networks A Useful Source of Candidates?
  • 20. Arbita’s Recruitment Genome Project is the single most wide-reaching and thorough market research project ever conducted in the recruitment community. • Focus group interviews • Multiple survey instruments • Exhaustive secondary research • Analysis from top industry thought leaders • Practical wisdom from over 4000 decision makers • Ranked list of key sourcing initiatives • Participate and get the reports for free
  • 21. No. Social Recruiting works only when you empower and deputize your entire organization to be recruiting evangelists.  The way we’re doing it now there is little reward in comparison to amount of work. Most companies lack an effective strategy for sourcing, they depend on web-savvy recruiters “figuring it out” as they go, often reinventing the wheel.
  • 22. Blogs, among the largest and most active social networking destinations, are almost completely ignored by recruiters  Most companies mistakenly push nothing but job ads to social networks, and in such frequency that it becomes noise nobody listens to, with little to no value-add
  • 23. 70% of companies have no strategy for sourcing from niche and regional networks and 83% have no strategy for sourcing on blogs: both massive, yet remain widely overlooked  Not all the tried-and-true methods have been supplanted: 90% say Employee Referral programs are much or somewhat better than social networks. The challenge going forward is how to make social networks and employee referral programs synergistic
  • 24. RECRUITMENT MARKETING INITIATIVES WHICH RECRUITMENT MARKETING USED ON HARD-TO-FILL JOBS? CHANNELS YIELDED MOST QUALIFIED?  85% Job Boards  24% Social Networks  78% Social Networks  16% Recruiting Services  49% Recruiting Services  11% Job Boards  41% Sourcing Services  11% Sourcing Services  24% SEO  3% SEO  16% SEM  1% SEM  28% “other”  34% “other” (from “no idea” to word of mouth, referrals, internal sourcing team, etc.)
  • 25. Stand out among billions:  100% complete profile – fill summary and specialties with words/phrases describing your expertise  Vanity URL (your name): make your profile “public”  linkedin.com/in/shally or facebook.com/shally.steckerl  Your past experience should go back 10 years Concisely explain what you did at each company  Write/get recommendations, ask/answer questions  Link to your websites (your jobs RSS, team blog, etc.)  Remember, its not who you know it’s who knows YOU
  • 26. Don’t be a schitzo - be the same person on all your networks!  You are your brand - skip the canned branding rhetoric, express your passion for your industry, your job, your role, branding will come naturally.  Don’t sell, share. Advertising turns away connections. Share what is useful, interesting bits about you or your company or your product. You gain more if you do not sell. Don’t reveal the recipe but a little taste goes a long way.  Be real. People want to relate with people, not “constructs” - be YOU, be honest about who you are and what you care about, and what you are doing, even an occasional tip about your favorite burger joint. You have multiple interests, express that.  Write well. Bad spelling, grammar or punctuation, and hasty abbreviations should be avoided. You can’t always get it right but confident prose and concise eloquence go a long way to establish your brand. One you get it, stay committed. If you are going to do it then don’t just stick your feet in, jump all the way in and stick to it. This doesn’t mean you have to write constantly every day but stay involved at some level of frequently at least once every other week or even weekly.
  • 27. 1. Participation in to many tools – You don’t want “naked profiles” 2. Self Promotion Overload – Using SM platforms as a promotion platform doesn't provide anything to the community 3. Setting & Forgetting – Time investment involved, continual process – Listen & Participate
  • 29. Focus on balance, gradual and selective growth  You can’t build infrastructure to address all objectives overnight  Start with < than 1 hr a day until you can prove ROI, then increase slowly  Divide activities into 80% high-priority projects and 20% pilot experiments  High-priority examples: • Where employees come from, where they go when they leave • Key thought leaders in your target organizations’ ecosystems  Pilot experiment example: • Identifying influential online social networking groups (LI, FB, Blogs) • What keywords do your target people Google most frequently 29
  • 30. Groundswell = "a social trend in which people use technologies to get the things they need from each other, rather than from traditional institutions like corporations."  You need various types of involvement: • Creators (write/broadcast) • Critics (rate/review/comment/contribute) • Collectors (RSS feeds/tag) • Joiners (visit socnets/create profile) • Spectators (Read/Watch/Listen) 30
  • 31. For social content • 21% of online US consumers are Creators • 37% are Critics • 69% are Spectators  90-9-1 principle by Jake McKee: • 90% of visitors will just view content • 9% only comment or react to content • 1% create it 31
  • 32. Determine top 5 direct competitors, research their stats (who is linking to them)  Competition is not who you think! Find what your potential customers are seeing! (Spyfu)  Submit your URLs to directories like: Google, Yahoo, MSN and DMOZ, Jayde, Yelo, etc.  Add your site to every known Blog Directory (Top 50 supplement in appendix)  Conduct reciprocal link-building strategies with a goal of 15 new back links per week  Generate inbound links from blogs, social networking sites, social bookmarking sites  List yourself on Location Based Services (FB Places, Foursquare, Yelp, Gowalla, Whrrl)  Get your content republished on Facebook Pages, Google Groups, Yahoo Groups  Keyword research: • What do people type into Google when they look for your company? • What do people type into your website’s search box? 32
  • 33.  Place keywords “in content” – write custom pages focused on keyword topics people use when they search for you  Optimize keywords in  Meta tags and title tag  “in contexts” – embedded in hyperlinks, image alt tags  HTML Site Map, XML Site Map, Robot.txt file  One-way links, Directory links, Reciprocal links  Update content every 30-60 days • Minimum 1 new blogs post per week. Tuesdays and Thursdays are the best days to post blogs • Publish press releases (many free PR submittal sites) • Invite guest bloggers to write a blog, which will create back link from that persons site to yours • NOTE: Do not duplicate websites or posts, this will get you penalized! 33
  • 34. 1. Video: in general they should focus on what real employees say and do, be unique, funny or highly informative if you want a chance of it going viral 2. Engage with existing social networks and relevant sites with user-generated content (join conversations outside of YOUR sites) 3. Enlist employees at or a level above your target roles and ask them for article and blog contributions (recruiters can feed them content ideas) 34
  • 35. Monitor your evangelists' content - and ask them to crosspost notable items of interest to your target audience (internal and external news).  Source for newsworthy content that your audience will find interesting, push to your networks (use a social distribution tools like Hootsuite, Ping or Hellotxt).  Maintain a mobile texting jobs/news list via SMS shortcode that people can subscribe to (Michael Marlatt recommends the free TextMarks service)  Whenever you see an external online thread that hits one of your sweetspots, have your team comment simultaneously there (gets more attention than a single response)  ClipIt, Diigo, Digg, Del.icio.us, share info you find interesting 35
  • 36. An ideal company careers page on Facebook has: • A jobs RSS feed instead of multiple individual posts • An integrated job search box • Employee testimonials, company videos and photo streams • Highlights of company’s recognition, awards and/or accolade • Either promote and moderate good discussions or don’t have them at all  Invite all your stakeholders and customers to be fans of the page so they can subscribe to your campaigns, and achievement updates  Share competitive intelligence, blog posts, updates and news on your page(s)  Groups are a team project! Various friends/colleagues can help manage and maintain it  Focus your incoming content feeds on things of interest to your stakeholders  Run your team’s Twitter accounts through your Facebook page
  • 37. Keep it lively, especially in the beginning, or it will wither and potentially have a worse impact on your brand than no page at all: • Invite industry-relevant peers to join the group to build critical mass of content and interest, and create opportunities for each other • Leverage employees, but encourage participation from evangelists outside the company. It will add authenticity to the group • Especially in the early-going, seed the group discussions with provocative, open- ended questions and informative items • Create user polls to gather feedback and opinions
  • 38. So you can be found easily, create a "parent" account for your recruitment team - e.g. @COMPANYcareers, @COMPANYjobs, or just @COMPANY (replace COMPANY with your company name/abbreviation).  Add a mission statement up to 160 characters. (Be catchy and keyword-loaded. For the URL link field in the profile, create a Twitter landing page on your website that explains what you're about, list of subjects you tweet about, and links to your team members to encourage following.  Create individual Twitter accounts for all team members who don’t already have one  Ideally they should have your company name as part of their username  Encourage existing Twitterers on your team to tweet for the company under those accounts. (source: 8 Steps for Building Community on Twitter)
  • 39. Best in class example of group tweeting: twelpforce  Retweet interesting items from your team and their followers/friends regularly. Retweeting good posts by those in your network boosts their ego and elicits cooperation/reciprocation: they see you pay attention to them and want to learn from them, not just self-promoting.  Use a standard hashtag for any event where you will have a recruiting presence, so people can find you through your event promotion. Tweet positively about how great your event will be. Publicize the hashtag in your other promotional materials too. (partial source: 8 Steps for Building Community on Twitter)
  • 40. To avoid logging in/out of accounts, get a multi-Twitter account application to manage them. Robust ones include: • HootSuite (see next section for details) • CoTweet lets you tag your replies as being from a particular person, and assign responses to team members  Use connecttweet.com so team members can tweet something to their individual accounts which then gets auto-re-tweeted by the parent account  Ask each team member to follow people who tweet in your target industry, function, etc.
  • 41. You want to know how many people clicked or forwarded your tweet so you know what content your target audience likes. You can use: • As a standalone, use: bit.ly (uses j.mp which is the shortest of all) • Hootsuite.com (uses ow.ly) has integrated metrics  How often are you re-tweeted? Check your retweetrank  See your people’s tweet frequency: tweetstats (or xefer)  Subjective/comparison metrics • Model top twitterers with TwitterFriends (see this how-to post) • How influential are your tweets? Check Twinfluence and Klout
  • 42. Run very targeted, contextual recruitment advertising, to passive prospects: • Social Ads seen by users who visit your Facebook page or website site; contextual impression or per-click ads targeted in various ways with Metrics included • Direct Ads: Ad targeting parameters include location, age, gender, education, school, keyword bundles, employer, etc. • Facebook’s built-in analytics are detailed so you shouldn’t need to use Google Analytics for your FB ad campaigns • Best use is ads for specific jobs with landing page on an actual JOB not a “career site” 42
  • 43. Use Facebook Ads to promote Company Page: • You can create ads that allow users to Like directly from the ad (and from a website) without leaving the page they are viewing • They can click anywhere on your ad to access your Page • When they Like your Page, a story is published in their wall (shared) • This story is eligible to show in Highlights – more PR for your page • Users will see friends who Like your Page in their version of the ad, increasing the relevance of your ad • Check out Wildfireapp.com for promoting your Facebook Page 43
  • 44. Target by  Companies: specific companies or by industry and size  Job Titles: by function and/or seniority (IC, Mgr, Dir, VP, CxO)  Geographies: up to 10 countries, states and/or metro areas  Groups: a specific or “named” LinkedIn group  Pay by clicks or impressions, budget as low as $50  LinkedIn’s analytics not enough – you’ll need Google Analytics or equivalent for detail  Uncheck the LinkedIn Audience Network Example: ad seen only by Accountants at Manager or Director level, with companies larger than 1,000 employees in Atlanta metro 44
  • 45. Finding passive talent from non-traditional sources
  • 46.  A stream of actionable information is consistently being published instantly via tweets, status updates, blog posts, comments, etc.  Focus on mission critical information from ad-hoc and real-time content such as that being generated by: • Attendees at conferences, events, tradeshows  "i was at * CONFERENCE” YEAR • Employees and prospects at work, off-site meetings  “at SAP office” or “at Lockheed” • Wishlist on Amazon and eBay: what books do they read or want to read? 46
  • 47.  Focus on keywords that most uniquely describe those targets (example: Hibernate vs. Jboss)  Build a list of target data points like: • Key individuals and thought leaders • Names or nickname of teams or groups • Company and/or organization names • Brand names, products and categories • Key events and locations 47
  • 48. Job postings can reveal names of: • Clients, products, job titles • Internal divisions, groups or units • Internal software the company uses  You can build org charts from job postings • From indeed.com “reports to” company:microsoft • Also use “reporting to” and other variations • Works with site:DOMAIN.com as well  Have you ever applied for a competitor’s job using a “bait” resume? Make up an “ideal candidate” and see you can learn from their response 48
  • 49. Focus on companies that employ people like the ones you need  Not all your competitors hire the same people you need  Zoominfo: free company search uncovers companies in your space • Keep to one term or phrase, e.g. cell biology (no need for “ “ marks)  JigSaw: company search mixes industry, sub-industry, and geography, download up to 50,000 company mini-profiles free  The “peer” method: search for 3+ entities in your target niche • Example: VMWare Citrix VirtualLogix • Above can find industry directories, analysts’ articles, other useful intel 49
  • 50.  FOCUS ON: integrated search - Yauba.com searches real-time sources, websites, news, blogs, socnets, documents, images, videos, etc.  See if the username exists on any social networks via: • Usernamecheck (60+ sites) • Knowem (120+ sites)  Google’s Follow Finder: Enter the username of one of your targets and find similar twitter users 50
  • 51. Gist a person, group or any RSS feed by feeding it to Wordle.net (i.e. VMWare)  No RSS feed? Grab all the text from recent press releases and paste into Wordle  Wordle resumes from the same department to find common themes: What happens if you feed a company’s Jobs RSS feed into Wordle? 51
  • 52. Search for conversational phrases • "developed * applications” • I.work|worked.for|at|on|with  add (company OR job title OR jargon) • "I|I'm work|worked|working for|at|on|with" COMPANY • "used to work" COMPANY or "used to work * COMPANY” • COMPANY ("my team" OR "our team") • "worked with" "contact me" • "is|was an * at COMPANY" and “I was|am an * at COMPANY” 52
  • 53. The “peer regression” method reveals people who influenced or were influenced by thought leaders  Finding other names in image/PDF captions • “gary flake" ("l. to r." OR "l to r" OR "left to right" OR "r. to l." OR "r to l" OR "right to left" OR "back row:" OR "clockwise from") • Try names of events, groups or companies  Use the 3+ name method on people: • "shally steckerl" “dave mendoza" "tim o'connor" “steve rath"  References on blogs & social networks: • Google blogsearch for “and firstname lastname” 53
  • 54. What can we learn when we follow companies? • Who’s been promoted: find out why? • New hires: could it be department growth? • Departures: who else is ready to leave? • Job openings: does this mean new products?  Company Search: enter an industry keyword, add a postal code, limit results by company size (employee count) and who’s hiring.  Get notified of company changes 54
  • 55. With a free account you can no longer see the last names of your 3rd degree connections  Even with a Corporate account you don’t see everyone  FOCUS ON: search hacks – most search engines let you use the site: command to find profiles: • site:www.linkedin.com (inurl:pub OR inurl:in) biochemist monsanto - inurl:jsearch -inurl:events -inurl:"/companies/" -inurl:"/dir/" -inurl:"/jobs/" Recommended keywords are job titles and company names (each related group in a separate parenthetical clause – see below). 55
  • 56. Works only if you have a paid account (even the min.)  First find the “key” of a private profile  Then open a new browser windo  Copy the text below: • http://www.linkedin.com/msgToConns?displayCreate=&connId=USERKEY  Paste the above into the new browser window  Replace USERKEY with the private profile’s key  Press enter – but do NOT press send 56
  • 57. Of course you know about Twitter but how about:  Twingly Microblogsearch: scans Twiiter and 11 others like Jaiku, Identica, Bleeper, Cirip, YouAre and more  Facebook status updates on http://youropenbook.org/  Look for natural phrases like “I’m an” or “I am a” within comments • Social Mention http://socialmention.com • BackType http://www.backtype.com • coComment http://www.cocomment.com 57
  • 58. Images, files and other documents can be found using filetype:  However… many are converted before being shared online  Look for them in document repositories like  Docstock  Scribd  SlideShare  Toodoc  Use this Custom Search from Arbita to search them with Google  Or search them on Bing, just add your keywords 58
  • 59. Good people get mentioned in interviews, as article authors, members of organizations, award winners  Findarticles.com  Highbeam.com  Books.google.com • “Software Engineer” US Black Engineer & IT • "CPA for|with|at Deloitte“  Check with your marketing, sales or legal dept. if they have Lexis-Nexis 59
  • 60.  Image search cleans SEO spam • Returns only web pages containing images with names or tags that match your search, eliminating much of the garbage. • Try this Google Images example! • Text used for image classification: snippet of text before/after image, anchor text on links pointing to image, “alt” text of image, and image url  Check out faces on Zuula Images  • Google, Bing, Exalead, Pixsy, Flickr, Photobucket, SmugMug, Picasa 60
  • 61.  Bloggers or the local news often spill the beans and give juicy details on people they interview • Ex: "is an iphone developer"  Search transcripts of video via: • Blinkx.com • Video.google.com • Video.aol.com • Truveo.com • Vimeo.com 61
  • 62. Tools to source, filter, grab and move data

  • 64. Publish your searches into RSS feeds from Google  Use iGoogle to organize them into tabs or  Push feeds or alerts into Gmail then search with Google’s built-in sophisticated search engine  64
