53 2013/2014 South Africa Students Tshwane University of Technology Students recommend 76 Send attractive and straight-to-the-point s and videos Being responsive to students questions and concerns Post links that are accessible using mobile devices They could more actively update social pages with information concerning projects they are currently involved in and maybe ask for some hypothetical input from students to get the students involved in and excited about what the company is doing. Communicate responsibly. I don't appreciate being spammed Advertise when they are recruiting and the various degrees they are looking to recruit from.. Create opportunities for two-way interaction using social media; provide updates on opportunities They can have recruitment officers join faculty-specific Keep it simple. Students groups in social media to don t like reading long text. immediately inform the Well prepared videos are members (the students) of great. job opportunities, seminars and other relevant things. Reach out by inviting students to functions, workshops, etc. Form support groups & forums for studying resources for academic support e.g. case studies, sharing real life scenarios. How do you think employers should use social media to reach students?

54 2013/2014 South Africa Students Tshwane University of Technology Students recommend 77 No. Social media is filled with a lot of scams. A variety of companies have the social media, but do not update it regular enough. They should be more active on it to keep it interesting. They shouldn't use facebook it is not formal and it doesn't make a good impression. They can send s or advertisements on our university pages, the we know it is a trusted source No never. It questions the seriousness and integrity of the whole employment process. Social media is meant to connect with friends and would be friends. Advertisement of jobs should be limited to professional job sites, suitable for the task at hand. no, employer and employee should stay a professional relationship Not really. Some students are from poor background and don't have access to the internet. An alternative for this can be newsletters sent direct to them. A part from LinkedIn, I don't think that they must use social media no social media makes people lazy and incompetent to do the proper job that is required. Its important to interact with the person so you know when they are being loyal to the company or not. Not really sure due to the fact that students are reluctant to interconnect their social lives with their professional lives How do you think employers should use social media to reach students?
