Nigel Wright Recruitment is a specialist recruitment firm founded in the UK in 1988. They have offices across Europe and focus on recruiting for the consumer sector. While social media provides opportunities to engage stakeholders and find candidates, it also presents risks if used as the primary recruitment method due to issues around diversity, transparency, discrimination and lack of control over branding. Recruitment firms continue to add value through intimate knowledge of the candidate pool and conducting robust evaluation processes that go beyond online profiles.
