Assignment task:
In this discussion forum you will create the initial post of at least 250 words describing how specific employers today use social media to further their HRM objectives. Discuss the benefits and risks of engaging applicants and employees in digital spaces. Your initial post should be at least three strong paragraphs.
Students are required to bring in at least one high-quality source outside of the module and cite it in their initial discussion response. High-quality references come from peer-reviewed academic journals or textbooks.
Your initial post (and any subsequent posts you make) can link to relevant news stories, sites, embedded YouTube videos, or simply screen captures of examples. You can find information for your posts simply by doing a Google search on social media and HRM. Following some companies on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and/or Instagram should also provide good examples.
