London, England (PRWEB) May 11, 2009 -- A brand new conference -- Social Media In Recruitment -- will take place in London on the 16th July 2009.
The conference has been programmed by Online Recruitment Specialists, Web-Based-Recruitment.com, to help Recruiters understand exactly what Social Media is and how it can be of benefit to them.
"There is currently a lot of interest in social media and how it can be used effectively in recruitment. However, there is also a lot of confusion about how get started and therefore the conference will focus on helping Recruiters understand exactly what social media is and how it can be used effectively," commented Mike Taylor, founder of Web-Based-Recruitment.com.
"Even if a Recruiter has no prior knowledge of social media there will be plenty of information and examples of how social media is currently being used in recruitment. This will give Recruiters the confidence to consider where social media could be used in their own organisations."

- * An overview of Social Media including social networking sites, blogs and podcasts.
- * How social networking sites such as Facebook can be used to get messages to your target audience

- * The future - taking social media to the next level
"We are delighted to have a great range of speakers who are involved with social media in recruitment on a daily basis which means that delegates will be able to learn from recognised industry experts", continued Taylor.
"Not only will Recruiters learn from our expert speakers but they will also be in a position by the end of the conference to put a plan together so that they can implement what they have learnt during the day."
