Just two months in, and the 2017 labor economy is already presenting a unique challenge to both employers and recruiters:

  •  The U.S. unemployment rate is at its lowest in eight years.
  • Over 3 million workers left their jobs by choice—the highest level recorded since 2006.

These channels can also serve as a conduit to your digital media and online presence – all designed to drive candidates to take specific action. Here are a few examples of traditional media, and why they still work:

Print media is an effective option for organizations with a small number of job openings, as well as those looking to launch a massive hiring initiative (for example, a new Call Center needing to hire hundreds of people).
