Posted by: There is one thing that we’ve learned since the start of establishing the Unleash the Monster community. Despite all of the buzz about Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and other social networks, most HR professionals in the government are unsure of where to start
Agencies are just starting to put policies in place that outline how employees can engage within these new social circles, but many still have not decided if they should even offer their employees the option of participating.
The fact is, social media is here to stay. Younger generations and future employees to your prospective agencies are actively involved now. Currently employees are likely checking out how social networks can impact them. Now the question is, how can HR professionals engage to recruit and retain?
Unleash the Monster is hosting an event on February 24th in Washington D.C. to discuss these topics. Our speakers are joining us from Federal News Radio, NASA, and Strategic Communications Group to discuss how attendees can get started in social media.
If you are local to the area and interested in attending please visit our events page for registration details. If you are not in the area, but would still like insight into what was discussed, we’ll be posting video clips to our YouTube page.
For all of you that are already involved in social media and understand the hurdles of getting started, we’d love for you to share your best practices here on Unleash the Monster. Post a comment below or click on “Share your story” to submit content for our site.
