Here is a spontaneous video interview to share what it is all about and why you should be thinking about your Mobile strategy now.
After announcing Talkback Mobile Recruiting #tbMobRec I have had many people tweet, email and ring me up to learn more about the day and about Mobile Recruiting.
I thought before going into detail about how to support recruiting practices via the mobile it may be best to summarise headline mobile Internet progress.
+ By 2014 there will be more use of Mobile Internet than Desktop Internet.
+ Nearly 1 third of Mobile Traffic is from an iPhone.
+ There are 160,000 iPhone Apps.
+ Worldwide over 60m iPhone or iTouch devices have sold.
+ 2bn apps have been downloaded.
+ Jobseekers are looking for Apps.
+ Jobseekers are searching for major brands in AppStore.
+ Mobile Apps attract users.
+ Jobseekers want to use Mobile Apps.
We are running a questionnaire and asking jobseekers what they want. The results of this survey will be published on the 5th May 2010 to be discussed at TalkBack Mobile Recruiting, #tbMobRec.

I agree with many of the points and would like to add an extra thought layer if you want to get into mobile for recruitment …. You have to play to the strengths of mobile and they are without doubt centred on the personal aspect of the relationship with the “phone” and the fact that most people are never without their mobile. If you then couple these two factors with the needs and requirements of the job hunter, relevant up –to –the – minute information on new jobs you can review at any time and the need to know that no one else ( ie your colleagues and employers) can monitor your job searching then it becomes apparent that mobile job search and support is a really really useful tool.

Great to see you are taking the initiative here, the growth of mobile was something people have been talking about for a long time but very few have actually done anything about. How rapidly the sector has expanded since the launch of the iphone has caught a lot of businesses out, particularly in the recruitment space.
The bananas recruitment app and it’s takeup across the industry has shown that there is a need / want from job boards to embrace mobile recruiting.
