However, of these newer businesses, 50% stated that lack of time or budget are key roadblocks to online marketing, while less than 5% ranked lack of technical skills or knowledge of the tools as significant obstacles to getting involved in social media.

With the rise in unemployment, competition for jobs continues to grow stiffer. One job opening could produce hundreds, often thousands, of applicants. This massive interest in each job opening has a negative impact on potential employees and on the companies that are hiring.

For the people who are applying, it’s becoming more and more difficult to stand out from the crowd. In many cases, applicants may have to submit their resumes to hundreds of jobs before securing a position. When they do secure interviews, they have to spend precious time (and gas money) traveling to the company’s office. Plus, if there are no initial screening criteria in place, they may end up spending time applying for a job that is not a great fit for them—or the hiring company.
