Print media has lost its popularity as a preferred hiring channel and there is a heavy reliance on job portals who account for a majority of the overall hiring among Indian organisations, a survey says.
According to a People Matters-CareerBuilder survey, among the channels used by Indian recruiting organisations, 82 per cent of Indian employers prefer Job portals as their preferred hiring channel.
The survey further noted that Indian organisations still rely very less on social communities as less than 20 per cent of organisations rely heavily on social media hiring.
The preferred social media channels that are used for hiring are LinkedIn and Facebook.
The survey further noted that print media has lost its popularity as a preferred hiring channel as most recruiters do not use print media to advertise jobs.
