Scott Baxt runs ERE’s marketing machine out of his office in Wellington. He is also a member of the South Florida Metro Recruiters group on RecruitingBlogs.com where he posted this:

There has been a lot of hype about Web 2.0 Recruiting. Some claim it is how the future of recruiting will evolve, some that it’s just a fad. This webinar will explore the good and the bad. Kevin [Wheeler] will use case studies and examples to show how organizations are benefiting from elements of Web 2.0, and how blogs, social networks, and even email and SMS can make you a more effective recruiter. He will also discuss the downsides of Web 2.0 and what the trade-offs are when it replaces other forms for recruiting. There will be plenty of time for comments and Q&A, so bring your questions and best practices to share.
