Task
Increasing use of social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Linkedln, provides employers and recruiters with a source of information about applicants. Recruiters may wish to have access to applicants' social media sites to determine whether a candidate would be a good fit for the organisation. The focus of this assignment is on exploring your views on the use of social media in the selection process (and the vetting process), its advantages, limitations and consequences. The scenario provided below presents a practical and an ethical dilemma for recruiters as social media blurs the line between what is public and what is private.
You are an HR manager and are in charge of recruiting a candidate for social media specialist role. The organisation needs a marketing professional with social media expertise to develop and manage the organisation's social media strategy and presence. You have three candidates for this role. They have similar background and experiences and you are finding it hard to separate between them. However, they are likely to have social media accounts such as Linkedln, Facebook and Twitter.
Analyse advantages and disadvantages of each of the three scenarios below and decide what you will do and why:
1) Ask each candidate for their permission to take a look at their social media sites
2) Take a look at their social media sites assuming the information provided there is public without notifying the candidates
3) Not look at their site
This assignment may be used for research purposes (de-identified and anonymous), and in this case you will receive information on the research project, contact person that is able to answer your queries about the reseach project, and instructions on how to withdraw from participation in the research. Participation in the research project will have no impact on your marks in this subject, and is based on your voluntary choice.
Rationale
Focus of this assignment is on the first learning objective: be able to critically examine assumptions and propositions of theorising about organisational behaviour in general. The role of technology is pervasive in businesses, and has practical implications for OB. This assignment will stimulate your thinking on the topic of personnel selection.
