Highly recommend this guide for online recruiting

This book is well written and packs a lot of very useful information for company recruiters. For this reason I purchased a number of these books for all my recruiters. This book has great endorsements by Monster.com, The Riley Guide, and CareerXRoads. I can see why they say "written for the experienced recruiter, the rookie, and everyone in between."

For the newbie and experienced recruiter

Most recruiters have never had a formal course on how to recruit online and those seminars take time and cost a few bucks. I thought I knew my way around, but decided to check this book out. I was surprised that I learned quite a few things...a lot infact, and I consider myself seasoned in the field. If you're looking to learn how to source and recruit I'd suggest this book, however, if you're looking for books to tell you where to go, I'd suggest the Recruiter's Bible or Internet Recruiting Edge.

Job recruiters working for large corporations, mid-size companies, and for themselves will find this book to be a valuable guide for carrying out effective online employee searches. Graham's tips, tricks, techniques, key concepts, strategies, and approach to doing business will keep recruiters actively involved and successful with their work. Highly recommended!

old or new to recruiting?

I have been in the recruiting business for a number of years and have watched with interest the growth of the Internet. I knew it was unavoidable companies would start using the Internet for more and more of its hiring potential. Of course, I was proved correct. To keep up with progress, if you are a human resource specialist, you need to read this book. Donna Graham has provided the person who has been 'around the block' and the person who hasn't yet gotten 'his/her feet wet', a book to introduce one to the ins and outs of the Internet recruiting market. Her chapters have given me some much-needed insights on how to improve my marketing strategies. I particularly liked the section of the book which dealt with finding places on the Internet to use. I can not express in words how much time having these links available has saved me. I feel you will not be disappointed in the book's down home use of language and user friendly format. For those of you who like to skim, she has included a "Key Concept" section which summarizes the chapter's content. Whether new or old to the recruiting businesses, I recommend this book.
