The value of social media in recruitment

I wrote an article on "The value of social media in recruitment" for ASPIRE™ by People Power™ published on 10th October 2011. A copy of the article is below:

The value of social media in recruitment

Candidates would normally research about a company and prepare themselves before attending a job interview. However, with the emergence and popularity of social media sites, recruiters can also do the same before calling candidates for job interviews!

Every day, new users sign up on the three main social media sites we know today – namely, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn which have over 975 million combined user accounts. The people using these social media websites sign up with their personal information as mandatory; optionally include their employment history and periodically post updates on what they’ve been doing.

Wealth does not pass three generations

I came across an interesting Chinese proverb and thought I'd share:

"Fu bu guo san dai"

  • Literally: Wealth does not pass three generations.
  • Meaning: It's rare that the wealth of a family can last for three generations (the 2nd may see the value of hard work, but the 3rd forgets it).
  • Explanation: In business, the first generation works extremely hard, so that the second generation reaps the benefits. By the time the third generation arrives, the wealth is squandered.

If you are a web host, ISP or a network service provider serving BlackBerry users, you may be interested in adding the IPs mentioned on BlackBerry Technical Solution Center KB11036 to your firewalls' whitelist.
