Yes, you heard that right; we are living in a mobile world, literally. Mobile has overtaken so much of our lives that we actually \u2018swear\u2019 by that. So much so that mobile phones are being used for hiring and that too quite effectively known as Mobile recruiting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em><u>Why is mobile recruitment on the rise? Let\u2019s understand the top 3 reasons that explain the benefits of this strategy.<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the data released by the International Data Corp. (IDC) 2015, more Americans will surf the Internet on their mobiles than on their PCs. In the year 2016, it is predicted that half of all Internet traffic to career\/job sites will come from mobile devices.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The point is if businesses manage to attract the best and the brightest talent, then they must build their sites for mobile optimization since this is where the target audience <em>stays<\/em>. Top recruitment firms\u2019 which includes Randstad Technologies\u2019 is redesigning their site in order to stay on top of their game and <u>attract the best talent from their comfort zone<\/u> \u2013 the mobile. The top reason for mobile recruitment is on the rise is drawing out the right talent from their comfort zone. The top talent surfs the web on their mobiles and as such, recruitment firms have no choice but to <em>\u2018talk to them\u2019<\/em> on the mobile. Mobile apps for recruitment job boards such as Naukri are commonplace.<\/li>\n<li>And now that hiring has somewhat made a comeback, mobile is the only place to go. Though it is quite tough to sell mobile recruiting as an effective strategy to top leaders in management positions in a firm, yet it is slowly and steadily being given a place of prominence in the recruitment strategies. Why? Because <u>job seekers are more likely to check for latest jobs posted while doing an errand<\/u>. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.glocalrpo.com\">Recruitment<\/a> going mobile means that the concept of having to \u2018sit at a desk\u2019 and doing something important is now being effectively phased out. As a result, applying for jobs on the go is more the norm now. When a job-seeker sees an interesting piece of a job on the go, they are more likely to apply for it then and there. If there is no mobile app for that job and the recruitment firm doesn\u2019t believe in it, then, the chances of applying for that job diminishes, if he has to come back home and apply.<\/li>\n<li>A primary reason why mobile recruiting is on the rise is that of <u>ease of application and convenience and the sense of immediacy<\/u>. That just means that when a job is posted, the job seeker sees it and applies for it. This means that the recruiter finds it that much easier to close the position. This also translates into the fact that positions are being closed quicker and offers cost-benefits for the firms following this as a strategy. No, wonder then that mobile recruiting is finding favor amongst the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GlocalORPO\/\">top management <\/a>too.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong><em>Going mobile is no more a luxury, but rather, a necessity now!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please call us for more information on our services \u2013 +1 425 818 0748<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s a mobile world we are living in!
