Digital Marketing is already on the boom; without doubt, the trend shall be continuous in 2015 and even beyond. Recruiting managers use Staffing and employment solutions to catch efficient people for work and find companies looking for hire. Even most of hiring process runs on Internet before a job seeker and interviewer see each other in person. The IT Jobs will be hotter in 2015. Here are Top 7 Recruiting Trends for 2015 that we expect will be on the rise throughout the year.

1. IT Cloud Will Grow Bigger

Cloud Computing is in nascent phase yet. 2015 will be the year when more and more companies will shift to cloud, may be partially or fully. As we know working on cloud makes data distribution and delivery several times easier. To handle data on cloud and its distribution industry needs efficient human resources.

How to find Jobs at Amazon worldwide?

Many a times I meet freshers during evening walk and while shopping for daily need. Often many hurls a question at me, 'do you have a job to offer' or 'can you tell where hiring is going on'? Obvious question! In my beginning days of Job Hunt, I also used to ask. Internet was not popular in my geography. Referral works well in most of the cases.

Today I make my living writing for this website and for customers across Internet. However, I work on contract, so I am always in the look out for new employers who can buy some copies, a wordpress website or my time for SEO and Social Media Broadcast. While surfing opportunities for myself I stumbled upon a hot domain Amazon.Jobs, off course, it was enough to caught my attention and further share here.

5 Social Media Every Job Seeker Must Sign Up

Who cares for Social Media suggestions when I am already there? Perhaps, you will think, this guy is crazy, writing in the ages of Smartphones to Join Social Media. You are right in your say, say for a moment. What I mean is, be organized and exploit social media up to fullest. Being on Social Media gives no Job guarantee, but avoiding it or not building your social profile is a big mistake. Personally, I do not like social media, because it's time taking, may be, also poses some security risks. But in the absence of  a Solid alternate, I need to be there. Every guy and girl next door is on Social Media doing chit chatting. You are already inside 10s or may be tons of those. Organize following 5 Social Media profiles to get a job favor.

1. Facebook: This name comes in mind first, at least to me, because letter F comes first at No. 6 among English Alphabets. Also, this is most popular. You, me and people like us made Mark Zuckerberg so successful. Perhaps, in your Facebook, you already have loads of friends. Organize your Facebook profile so people know your skills in much better ways. May be some may help you in getting an Interview call.
