Bringing the Internet Inside
Automating Recruitment Knowledge

Integration of the use of the Internet with the internal business processes of recruitment

Knowledge=Information + Process

Information on candidates, job boards etc and the internal process/workflows

Who Wants What?

• Candidate wants job
• Employer wants employee
• Match = knowledge heaven

Where, when and why
timing, location and message

(Guess what, Recruitment is a sales function – which we have been saying for what seems like forever)

Where is the information?
Job boards and social/business networks, comms systems, referral networks and knowledge sites

How can we exploit all of these data sources?

Good slide with the boxes and arrows, can’t replicate here

Some good slides of Recruitment and Internet 1.0, how thinks used to link together.

Another view of Internet 2.0
About the knowledge interface and integration of the processes.

Info and text from the web and elsewhere is only unstructured information, is not data which can be knowledge. Need to use the extraction/parsing tools to structure the data.

This approach enables new recruitment business practices and models because the data can be searched and matched more effectively

Improve the efficiency of the processes: Use Multi-search to examine a wide number of information sources/databases

Conclusion

• Greater quantifies of knowledge
• needs to be integrated into workflow
• Some technologies can do this now
• More will come
