Imagine you are a small company, and you are growing rapidly despite the naysayers on the news about the economy. It’s time to hire a full-time sales person.
Will you spend $600-$800 to post on Monster?
Will you enjoyed being spammed when posting jobs on Craigslist, just to get an entry level person?
I doubt it!
I would prefer to get a referral to fill my post. And I trust my friends on Facebook and Twitter to be my referral network for several reasons.
First, its free.
Second, I know these people who may know people I know.
As a matter of fact, this is exactly the thought process going through the minds of thousands of hiring managers daily.
And the benefit to you is that you get to reply to the job minutes after it has been posted.
