Fabulous presentation. Penetrating by phone is a challenge in Asia as well!
Nice preso. I’m based in Singapore and help firms in Asia with their recruitment strategies. Just some points. Social media in China and other countries are indeed very high but to data mine users is going to be tough because many “hide” under a moniker especially in countries like China and even to a certain extent Singapore even on FB and Weibo as many make political commentary to protect themselves from government censors.
Job boards like Jobstreet and JobsDB are definitely go-to sites for South-east Asia.
To Maureen’s point about penetration by phone being tough in Asia, its both yes and no. For English-speaking countries like Australia, Singapore, India, Malaysia, it works like the West. Challenges arise if you are trying to phone connect in China, Japan. Local languages rule! There are good local phone sourcers in these countries and for any firm having an Asian recruitment strategy, retain these folks with your lives! 🙂
