While virtual recruiting certainly brings some challenges, there are some great opportunities that it offers as well. Without the constraints of travel budgets and narrow windows of time on campus, it’s a great opportunity to reach out to more students and use various strategies to highlight unique aspects of company culture, invite current employees/alumni in roles to engage with prospective candidates, provide more in-depth insights into day-to-day responsibilities of the jobs for which you are recruiting, and more.
