It's a great engagement and transparency channel. You can pre-vet employees and they can pre-vet employers!

About a year ago, I posted a job to hire a storyteller into my social business adoption team. Of course, I tweeted the posting so that I could make others aware of it.

You have more way to get to know the person and his/her skill. You can easily ask 2nd opinion from someone else

#socialbiz practice is the honey that attracts brilliant bees.

A woman saw my tweet and applied for the job. She then connected with me to alert me to her application, in a way that was engaging, rather than intruding. She told me her story.

A5. It can turn an org's insides out. Many employees can share the value of the work and enviro

She got the interview, and then I had the chance to check out her social channels. I learned so much about her, including that she had recently faced some interesting personal and professional transitions.

One org I know uses #socialbiz to attract smart folks AND weed out the inauthentic duds. #doublebeebonus

I hired @maxwelllauren a few weeks later, and she's been an amazing addition to team IBM #socbiz!

You're able to learn so much more about what makes someone click by what they tweet and post on Linkedin than you would on a one-page resume.

@MCooke2013 It is really that simple, actually.

Resumes show experience. Social collaboration shows stories.

Daniel Davis
Great lessons here about being responsible with your online activity!

@kushaanshah social tools allow you to share what you're doing/thinking not just what you've done (resume, CV)

Marcia Conner
One big org checks profiles not to weed out b/c of partying, rather b/c that implies they're well liked.

@edbrill A great example of storytelling through tweets right there, Ed! Glad to know the story! (& congrats @maxwelllauren )

Marcia Conner
Thru ambient awareness, we as hiring mgrs get a sense of people's rhythms & approach to life.

Let's please not forget that #socialbiz includes customer communities, too, great for recruitment+.
