“Our research indicates that the protracted recession has created a genuine shift in recruitment marketing strategy,” the new white paper says. “Not a, I have a bad feeling about this’ kind of shift, but more of a times have changed and there is a huge opportunity here’ kind of shift.”
Despite these shifts, “it is clear that more than half of the overall recruitment community is not well positioned to navigate the shift in candidate behavior,” the new white paper says.
Based on a comparison of data from two major Recruitment Genome Project surveys (one in the first quarter of 2009 and the other in the third quarter), along with other primary and secondary research, Arbita recommends these essential recruitment marketing initiatives in 2010:
1. Employment Brand Execution
2. Training for Internet Sourcing
3. Internet Marketing (SEO and SEM)
4. Career Web Site Optimization
5. Job Board Advertising Optimization
6. Social Networking
