Yes, people are using their smartphones to do just about everything, including finding a job. So what does your company’s mobile hiring strategy look like?

People like to swipe their way through dating, eating and banking. Your hiring strategy should let potential hires interact in the same fashion. If you want to catch young, talented people you need to speak their language.

Whether it means adopting apps like Switch for the recruitment process or implementing a complete overhaul of the native application system, businesses need to take the mobile job search seriously. As more job seekers abandon desktop Web applications for mobile devices, be it smartphones or tablets, companies may find their postings overlooked due to a poor user experience. At the end of the day, it can make a difference between filling positions with the best talent quickly and having postings hang around for months before the right candidate applies.
