I was forwarded this press release from Enhance Media for their “Year ahead Conference” which should be of interest with some major speakers, in particular Facebook. They were probably the buzz in recruitment this year, with all the application trying to take advantage of social networking and the promise of a new way to get candidates, personally I would be interested if any worked!
