Checking In: Recruiting with Location-Based Services

In recruiting, like real estate, success comes down to three words: “location, location, location.” Considerations like commuting and relocation have always played a critical role in the recruitment process; with the rise of location-based services like Foursquare, recruiters and talent organizations have a new weapon for winning the war for talent.
