Discussion: "The Right People in the Right Positions at the Right Times"
Please respond to the following:
• Take a position as to whether using social media provides an organization with a new competitive advantage or whether traditional methods such as job postings on the company website are still better for recruiting quality job candidates. Justify your position.
• Determine if companies should ask for consent from potential and current employees when using social media as another form of background check. Suggest an advantage or disadvantage inclusive to the traditional credit, criminal, or reference checks when using social media. Provide a rationale for your position.
