Social Media and the Hiring Process - Post 5

In conclusion, the importance of social media relating to the hiring process is becoming more prevalent. I believe that in 2030, employees, employers, and potential candidates will all be impact by the growth of social media. Employers will shift to using recruiters who will use the growth of social media to their advantage by tapping into an enormous pool of candidates on various social media websites (Simms, 2013). In addition, social media will also benefit those seeking jobs by providing them with an opportunity to look globally for the ideal job that they desire (Simms, 2013). Employers will also have the luxury of accessing information that they would not normally be exposed to through orthodox resumes. These are just some of the impacts that the growth of social media could have on the hiring process in 2030. Practically, for us to know how social media will affect work in 2030, we will just have to wait another 13 years.
