*Recruiters Rethink Online Playbook *
*By JOE LIGHT<http://online.wsj.com/search/ >term.html? KEYWORDS= JOE+LIGHT& bylinesearch= true

As recruiters wade cautiously back into hiring mode, they're throwing out
their old playbooks. Rather than sift through mounds of online applications,
they are going out to hunt for candidates themselves.
Sodexo's U.S. unit has cut job posts on third-party sites since the
recession started. Above, its Paris offices.
Many plan to scale back their use of online job boards, which they say
generate mostly unqualified leads, and hunt for candidates with a particular
expertise on places like LinkedIn Corp.'s professional networking site
before they post an opening. As the market gets more competitive again, they
are hiring recruiters with expertise in headhunting and networking, rather
than those with experience processing paperwork.
Inundated by online applicants, McLean, Va.-based government contractor
Science Applications International Corp. plans to cut the number of job
boards it uses in the coming fiscal year to six from 15 or so, says company
vice president Kara Yarnot.
SAIC has asked its 125 U.S. recruiters to find candidates for analyst,
engineering, and other jobs on professional social networks instead.
"It's almost a throwback to the old, dial-for-dollars method of recruiting,"
says Ms. Yarnot. "We need to reach candidates earlier, before they're being
pursued by competitors."
About 24% of companies plan to decrease their usage of third-party
employment websites and job boards this year, according to a December survey
from the Corporate Executive
Board<http://online.wsj.com/public/ >Co.,quotes/main. html?type= djn&symbol= EXBD
a business consulting firm. Meanwhile, nearly 80% of respondents said
they plan to increase their use of job-board alternative methods this year,
such as employee referrals and other websites like Facebook Inc. or
LinkedIn.
Food services company Sodexo USA, owned by Paris-based Sodexo SA, slashed
the number of jobs it posts to third-party job boards by more than half
since the recession started, says vice president of talent acquisition Arie
Ball. The number of applications to some executive openings at Sodexo rose
more than 50% to 300 since the downturn started, Ms. Ball says, but the
increase brought many unqualified candidates.
"Recruiters had to put in all this extra time to read applications but we
didn't get benefit from it," she says. Now, the company is hiring different
types of recruiters who specialize in headhunting, including finding
candidates to poach from competitors, rather than those who are good at
processing and filtering applications.
Companies are adapting their plans as they start hiring again after the
downturn. Between November 2009 and November 2010, the total number of job
openings rose 32%, according to the Labor Department.
Job seekers who were reluctant to leave their existing jobs-as well as
unemployed workers sitting on the sidelines-have begun casting about for
opportunities, too. Between December 2009 and December 2010, recruiters saw
a 17% increase in applications per opening, according to the Corporate
Executive Board.
The trend has in many ways been a boon for job boards, which say they
haven't noticed any impact from some companies' pullback. But some of the
largest sites acknowledge that the new environment means they must do more
to keep customers happy.
In the coming months, Monster
Worldwide<http://online.wsj.com/public/ >Inc.quotes/main. html?type= djn&symbol= MWW
plans to roll out technology that ranks candidates based on how well
their applications fit requirements set by the recruiter, says chief global
marketing officer Ted Gilvar. The product has been available to some
customers since late last year.
Pittsburgh-based PNC Financial Services
Group<http://online.wsj.com/public/ >Inc.quotes/main. html?type= djn&symbol= PNC
remains concerned that relying too much on job boards could be bad for
business.
Melissa Mounce, the company's senior vice president of corporate talent
acquisition, says the company became concerned that its slow response time
to applications was hurting its retail bank's brand. "Someone who applies
for a bank-teller position might also be a customer or potential customer,
and we were letting those applications fall into a black hole," she says.
PNC has reduced its overall spending on general job boards, such as Monster
and CareerBuilder, but still uses niche boards, like Dice.com for tech
professionals, when the need arises. "We used to post everything, but in
this environment, you have to think strategically," she says.
Additionally, the company is currently reorganizing its recruiting staff to
better handle the tens of thousands of applications it receives in a given
month. Instead of using senior recruiters to filter through the company's
applicants, lower-level screeners process them first and only hand off the
most-qualified. A separate set of recruiters actively searches for more
experienced candidates who aren't likely to come in through a job board.
