My daily lunchtime visit to the BBC website usually serves up some educational, informative and entertaining tidbits to share around the office; can anyone else believe that it is the 25th anniversary of the .com domain?

I must confess that I struggle to recall QKL.com, Boxspark or Beenz.com as serious contenders for my browsing time however what is taking up a great deal of our time here is how we are looking to engage Clients and Candidates with new social media.    

Perhaps here at CSC we have taken for granted how social networking and its impact on recruiting is creating one of the largest changes in dynamics in how we interact with the people important to the success our business. Web 2.0 is empowering candidates and clients like never before, giving the less scrupulous amongst us nowhere to hide.     

The job seekers and Companies (even the BBC and MI6 are in on it) are beginning to lead the way in how they want to engage with, and as employers.  Never hearing back from your applications, interviews or recruitment agencies for most has been a standard experience, fed up with that? Let the online world know with Twitter, Linkedin and Facebook providing high profile forums to vent your frustrations or recommend services to others.   

This is what we are making our little project here at CSC, how to effectively engage you and how to get your feedback on us.  Its all green shoots stuff for us here in the office, something that we are looking forward to getting hands on with but more importantly having fun playing with to see what works best.  

Any suggestions? Feel free to get in touch, find us on twitter and Linked in we don’t have anything to hide!
