Editor’s Note
=============
Online job advertising is on the up – and not just for senior
posts. More and more organisations are recruiting staff at all
levels – from office junior to executive – via their own website
or through one of the many burgeoning online recruitment sites.
By going online companies can not only reach a more diverse pool
of talent but also reduce recruitment costs. Furthermore, the
trend is only just beginning. Spend on e-recruitment is expected
to triple by 2009 to 500 million pounds. So is online
recruitment all that it’s cracked up to be and how has it
changed recruitment strategy?
