Over the last few years the world of recruitment has undergone a digital revolution. Social media platforms have become powerful tools in modern recruitment strategies, especially as the global pandemic continues to encourage remote work and virtual job seeking. Social media is now an essential part of candidate sourcing, employer branding, and even the hiring process itself.

The hot topic of the moment is GDPR. Due to come into effect in May of 2018 GDPR or the General Data Protection Regulation has been created in the European Parliament by which the Council of the European Union and the European Commission aim to increase data protection for all individuals data inside the European Union and (post Brexit) the United Kingdom.There is much uncertainty over GDPR from the I.C.O regarding enforcement due to lack of clarity regarding consent of data collection, however, we feel that if you follow the simple guidelines as set out in the GDPR then your business will be operating on the right side of the legislation.
