The event is set. May 21st, I'll be hosting a live webinar on Facebook recruiting through hireability. The session is called,

Facebook Recruiting: A Live Demonstration of Hiring Inside Facebook by Jim Durbin, the Social Media Headhunter.
The explosion of Facebook as a social networking tool is challenge and a mystery to recruiters. Unlike LinkedIn Plaxo, Facebook users aren't looking to be contacted in a search for jobs. They certainly don't want to be headhunted, until they're ready. Jim Durbin, a social media expert takes a look at Facebook from the eyes of an experienced staffing professional, and provides live, actionable training on how to use Facebook to increase placements.

In a session that combines sourcing, contacting, and referral generation, Mr. Durbin shows recruiters how to navigate the tricky waters of social networking.

The event is a paid webinar - the cost is $89, and it will be 1:30 p.m. EST/10:30 a.m. PST, and will cover sourcing, filtering, connecting, reference checking, and referrals in Facebook. Most training sessions are full of theory - this webinar will be a walkthrough of screens and search terms on an actual job search.

There'll be Cross-promotion at socialmediaheadhunter and my other recruiting blogs charlotterecruiting.com/">Charlotte, Seattle, and KC Recruiting, as well as the social networks and social media circles. If you announce the event on your blog, be sure to send me an e-mail, and I'll link to you from this PR5 blog.
