A company can be considered as a small society in itself, which is trying to maximize its productivity and ensure that it stays ahead of the curve and the competition. For an organization to grow, it is imperative that the smaller sub - units namely the departments and the teams are are working in an optimized manner as well as effectively and efficiently. In today's, cut throat environment, it becomes more critical for an organization, to hire a new member with greater awareness with respect to what the person could offer to the organisation, the department and the team that he would be joining.
A company, as discussed above, is a "micro - society", and hence, what better way to judge if the latest addition to your society would help in improving it by assessing how the same person behaves in the real world. And in today's time, People are less active socially and more active on the respective social media. A quick glance at a profile on facebook and twitter will tell you the likes and dislikes, the political inclination, his priorities in life and everything we need to know about the person. A quick look at his Linkedin account will tell his past experiences and positions held, the courses which he has completed, his educational background, all of which would be verified by hundreds of independent person.
Also, the data analysis of the metadata generated through social media can help an organisation choose people depending on the need of the organisation. For eg. an organisation can choose if it needs an employee for the short term or the long term and can on the basis of data analysis, select a person who skips job every two years or somebody who has been in the same job for the past five years.
Thus, the companies assessing social media currently, to hire staff is just staying ahead of the curve as this is going to become the rule rather than the exception over the coming years
