Figures have been released showing a dramatic increase in the recruitment of Accounting and finance professionals within the next 12 months.#LinkedIn will be one of the main drives to obtaining the correct candidate!
"More businesses are also using social media – predominately LinkedIn – to recruit accounting, finance, and IT professionals. According to the report, 60 percent of respondents used social media as a recruitment tool to fill open accounting and finance positions, while 54 percent used it for IT. LinkedIn dominated all other platforms, with 51 percent that use the online business network to connect with accounting and finance professionals; 46 percent for IT.
“This result is not surprising since LinkedIn is well-known for its job-search capabilities, as well as its LinkedIn Recruiter platform,” Brilliant noted in the report, adding that LinkedIn “helps display additional information about an individual, more than other [social media] platforms, allowing for better judgement of the candidates.”
