iLogos
Corp., an Internet research and consulting firm specialized in
electronic recruiting, has published a new report on the state of Internet
recruiting in Canada.
Achieving Results with Internet Recruiting examines the growing
“e-cruiting” phenomenon in Canada and its rapid transformation of Canada’s
recruiting industry.
According to iLogos, searching the Internet for work is now the second most
popular method of finding a job, next to the newspaper. Many companies are
receiving more than half their resumes online and some are recruiting online
exclusively.
“Choosing to recruit without the Internet makes about as much sense as going
out fishing but opting to leave your fishing rod at home,” said Yves
Lermusiaux, iLogos Chief of Research.
Achieving Results With Internet Recruiting presents current facts and
figures related to Internet recruitment in Canada.
iLogos surveyed more than 50 Canadian companies active with electronic
recruiting to compile a snapshot of the market, then analyzed the
information to provide recruiters with the tools and techniques necessary to
lead in the wired world.
The report, available for US$270 from the iLogos Web site, explores best
practices for Internet recruiting, including how to optimize the use of a
corporate Web site, and how to take advantage of online job boards, banner
advertising and newsgroups.
