Social Media and Communications

Check out this important treasure chest of information for this assignment: How to build a social media recruitment strategy: An FAQ guide .

In this assignment you will be creating a social media recruitment plan for your employer. If your current employer already has a social media recruitment plan, you will create a plan to revise it.

When used properly, social media recruitment plans can be a valuable addition to an HR department’s hiring strategy. Conduct some research and develop a social media plan to attract new employees.

If you opt to develop a presentation with PowerPoint, include a cover slide, reference list slide, and 10 or more slides covering the various parts of your social media plan. You should have no more than five words and a picture on each slide. If you want more than one very short bullet point on your slides, then transition each bullet point one at a time. Submit this presentation into the appropriate drop box for grading by the posted due date and time. Be sure to check your Turnitin score to make sure it is not over 15%.
