In Conclusion

The majority of the IT companies post content on their social media accounts daily or frequently. Only 30.8% of them inform their followers about upcoming job openings and most important, we observed through the audit that many companies have a one-sided presence on their channels by posting only on LinkedIn (49.2%). In that way, a candidate who does not own a LinkedIn account will never see this side of the company and will never be informed of its open vacancies. Even though most companies post regularly about their people on social media, we noticed that only 1 company has a dedicated account to its Human Resources. Lastly, it is important to point out that less than half of the companies (30) post rarely content regarding their personnel and over 20% of them they never do. As more and more companies tend to create valuable content about their people on social media, being on the other side of that, it creates a significant negative impact on prospective candidates.
