2. Session overview Introducing Mobile Career Sites The state of mobile today Whats the value? Differences in mobile approaches Is mobile apply the answer? The demo Q & A 3. Mobile is exploding Mobile devices have outnumbered world population Mobile usage accounts for 25% of all web traffic and is doubling year on year. 30% of all job search traffic is mobile 4. Job seekers are relying on mobile heavily Source: Glassdoor 2013, LinkedIn 2014 Recent research shows a gap between what candidates want to do and what most organisations offer. Candidates want mobile experiences. 5. Candidates are ready but companies are not 10% of Fortune 500 have a mobile apply option 55% do NOT have a mobile optimised career site 50% of mobile career sites are not redirected Source: iMomentous 2014 6. Recruitment challenges 1/3 of requisitions are hard to fill More than one third of hiring managers have positions that have been open for three months or longer Talent shortage is on the rise 18 million person shortage of highly skilled, college educated people by 2020 The fight for talent intensifies New approach needed to attract and engage Millennials Responsiveness and speed critical to win top talent Source: McKinsey, CareerBuilder 2013 7.

The Demo 11. 11 What well cover in this session Candidate experience on mobile 12. Mobile enabled Mobile optimised Responsive Adaptive Understand the Differences in Mobile 13. Making all of your career site content viewable on mobile devices through responsive web design seems like a great idea. However, this approach does not account for new behaviour patterns where people are accessing content in smaller chunks of time and looking for very specific information. Ed Newman, Consultant, Blogger and Entrepreneur Guiding Principle 14. 14 Responsive Design Example Allows desktop sites to be replicated on mobile devices Pages load slower Delivers all website assets whether used or not Single template for all devices Same domain 15. Adaptive Design Example Differentiated user experience Faster load time Delivers only mobile optimised files for each device Distinct templates for each device Focuses on the activities users are most likely to perform on mobile Different domain 16. 16 Responsive vs Adaptive Responsive May require a full site rebuilt Works best with a mobile first approach Design and testing across devices may be difficult Adaptive Doesnt require a site rebuilt Delivers user experiences targeted at specific devices and contexts Requires maintenance of separate URLs/CSS code The choice depends on business objectives 17. We acknowledge mobile apply is key as a sourcing technique. We are working on creating an effective mobile apply solution because there are 3 perspectives we need to consider to make this work for you: 1. The Candidate Perspective 2. The Recruiter Perspective 3. The Compliance Perspective Mobile Apply Is it the Answer? 18. Mobile Recruiting demands fast decision making. In general, mobile cleaves work into two piles: fast stuff and slow stuff. Mobile takes the fast stuff and leaves the rest for more thoughtful environments. Its not at all clear that companies want prospective employees to make career decisions on the fly. Nor is it likely that potential employees see this as a good idea. John Sumser: http://www.hrexaminer.com/mobile_recruiting_1/ As part of our design process, we interviewed dozens of candidates and asked them a simple question: Would you apply for a job directly on your mobile? Most candidates were not comfortable to make career or life changing decisions on their mobile. The Candidate Perspective 19. Mobile Recruiting demands fast decision making.

John Sumser: http://www.hrexaminer.com/mobile_recruiting_1/ I wouldnt want candidates to be able to apply with a click to a position, this will offer volume but not necessarily quality and will be a nightmare for recruiters to handle. Staffing Manager, BMW The Recruiter Perspective 20. Typical application process many questions, some essay style Would you put the same process on a limited size screen? Probably not. Having 2 different processes for desktop and mobile open you up to compliance risks Would you treat your mobile candidates differently from your desktop candidates? Bottom Line: Keep your process the same = terrible experience for mobile candidates and a counter effect Make the two processes different = Compliance challenges Simplify process for both = Increased volume but not necessarily quality The Compliance Perspective 21.
