    e-Recruiting training - using new recruiting channels successfully

    The digital transformation offers many new opportunities due to increasing networking and digitalization. In recruiting in particular, there are numerous opportunities that can be exploited through new channels. Today, HR managers have significantly more options for acquiring new Employees than just a few years ago. The key words are "e-recruiting" and recruiting via social media. However, the successful use of digital recruiting channels also requires knowledge of them. This training on e-recruitment teaches all the necessary skills and methods that modern recruitment should include.

     

    From the website to the job portal - online touchpoints for applicants

    Less than ten years ago, the search for applicants for HR departments was largely limited to the advertising sections of daily newspapers and magazines. Attractive advertisements were read offline by interested parties and applications were mainly sent in by post. Today, the recruiting environment is extremely heterogeneous. There are numerous job portals on the web that make job advertisements available at any time and from anywhere in the world. There are social media platforms and social networks geared exclusively towards the professional environment, as well as the company's own homepage, which can be integrated into the search for suitable applicants. It is no longer just the applicants who have to become active, but HR managers themselves if they want to acquire well-trained, competent and committed Employees . Only those who know how to use digital recruiting channels correctly can ensure a stable workforce in the long term. This training provides the necessary basis for this, specifically on the subject of e-recruiting. The training covers all areas of modern recruitment and provides participants with the necessary know-how.

    Please note: We use third-party tools for selected events. Personal data of the participant will be passed on to them for the implementation of the training offer. You can find more information in our privacy policy.
