Attracting talented job candidates is one of the biggest challenges facing HR in the next 10 years. Understandably, organizations want top talent and they are highly focused on recruiting strategies that enable them to hire the very best.

One increasingly popular strategy is mobile recruitment. As mobile devices become ever more ubiquitous, potential candidates are starting to look more favorably at organizations offering a mobile recruitment option. But are all candidates created equal when it comes to mobile recruitment? We decided to take a look at the coveted members of the workforce and explore their use of and attitudes towards mobile recruitment.

Using the high-potential employees subset of our global WorkTrends™ survey data, we were able to compare top talent, who significantly outperform their peers and demonstrate a stronger capacity to succeed, with other employees. The results provide new insight into mobile recruiting and guidance for organizations looking to attract top talent.
