Why 40+ Social Networks?

Many of my friends asked me – We have Linked In… Why do we to send Job Opportunities to 40+ Social Networks?

Let’s discuss some statistics.

  • Facebook is 500 million+ Monthly Active users. Real number of users are more than that. Real Number is a secret.
  • Linked In has only 65 million+ users. This means Facebook alone has approximately 10 times more users than Linked In.
  • There are quite number of social networks which are popular in different geographies, interests and more. We need to be targeting connections on each of them.
  • Linked In is great for semi-active candidates who would be easily accessible on Linked In. Not everyone wants to hang-out on Linked In all the time.
  • 40+ Social Networks gives us access to 98% relevant candidates online – We can ignore rest 2% from a recruitment standpoint.

We can have connections on multiple social networks and these connections are an asset that can be leveraged for win-win. Employees’ connection can get exciting Job Opportunites and employee can get referral bonus.

I personally have accounts on 20+ Social Networks and hence good relationships out there.
