Whenever we spoke of social media and careers, the name that glimpse to our mind is LinkedIn. This vast professional network is the go-to platform for Job recruitmen. Currently, there are more than 1 million users only in Banglades. This is a massive advantage for recruiting companies if they play their cards right.
The business can use LinkedIn in several ways; the most preferred method being the company page since its free of cost. For instance, due to its extensive number of followers, Unilever can share updates with them so that these followers can apply or recommend people for the job. If you want to have a more subtle approach, you should try running a group around a topic, which serves as discussion forums as well as a place for peers to exchange a word. Applicants usually look at the business's employee profile before applyin. Accordingly companies should make sure that the emoloyee's profile reflect what the company has to offer.
