HireClix will provide strategic insights and practical steps on how and why recruiting teams can use social media channels for recruiting in their first San Diego social recruiting seminar on Wed., Feb. 1 from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. The free breakfast seminar, ?Maximizing LinkedIn and Facebook for Recruiting?, will be held at the Marriott Del Mar at 11966 El Camino Real in San Diego. The event is free and open to recruiting teams throughout San Diego County. Registration is required at http://www.hireclix.com/events.

?It?s time for recruiters to move beyond job boards and integrate social media into their recruitment campaigns,? said Neil Costa, CEO and founder of HireClix. ?Because social media is still underutilized for recruiting, employers can quickly get started on social recruiting to implement innovative recruiting campaigns that will stand out from the competition and be attractive to hard-to-find candidates.?

Corporate recruiting teams, staffing firms and human resources professionals are invited to attend the free breakfast seminar presented by Costa. The in-depth seminar will focus on how companies can utilize Facebook and LinkedIn to build their employment brands, recruit passive and active candidates, and increase the quality of incoming candidates and hire yield. Costa will also demonstrate specific ?how to?s? for building a Facebook recruiting fan page and targeting passive candidates with Facebook advertising. He will provide a tutorial on the advantages of LinkedIn?s lesser known products and outline effective techniques for negotiating a LinkedIn contracts.
