Abstract |
Technological innovation fostered by the use of the Internet and social networks in the business context requires the modification of the human resources (HR) management process to use the opportunities to obtain a sustainable competitive advantage. This paper analyzes the opportunities provided by technological innovation, which allows for the development of a new e-recruitment and selection process to access and attract valuable HR regardless of their geographical location. Adapting the traditional selection process, companies can incorporate new 2.0 selection techniques that generate an extraordinary improvement opportunity in human resource management. Given the need for members of the human resources department to master new technologies in order to maximize the benefits of e-recruitment and selection, the aim of this work is to carry out a case study in a leading company in the mechanical engineering sector. To this end, we will start by reviewing the literature. Then, the work offers a model of HR management considering the influence of technological innovation on the attraction of valuable human resources, integrating the previous theoretical contributions of experts in the field. Based on the observation of the case study, the results show the main factors, human resource practices, and management results and behaviors undertaken by a multinational company. The case study allows researchers to learn from professionals and business leaders and presents a roadmap that can be used to manage e-recruitment and selection. |
