...Recent Trends in Recruiting We are in an era of transformation. The sink or swim approach to new hire management is rapidly turning obsolete as organizations find themselves time and time again having to pick through the ruins of a mismanaged good hire. The competition for top candidates is stiff and recruitment processes are getting advanced gradually. This is due to the high demand for temporary employment, thus increasing the volatility of labor force and raising the need for qualified labor. A few things are essential to successful talent acquisition pipeline development and sustainability: * Employers, recruiters, and hiring managers must know and understand their organization’s short-term and long-term hiring needs and the positions * in order to source and develop effective candidate pools. * They must be using internal and external resources to develop the most diversified and qualified pipelines. * Their talent acquisition program must be able to measure pipeline strengths and weaknesses.

...RECENT TRENDS IN VIRAL MARKETING *Ritu ABSTRACT 2010 looks to be the biggest year ever for online marketing. With more and more marketers demanding results-based advertising, it is no wonder viral marketing is becoming one of the fastest-growing trends. Nothing captures the essence of viral marketing better than the description of how a virus grows. It is uncanny in its ability to remain shrouded in secrecy till it wins by sheer weight of numbers. It piggybacks on other hosts, and grows by feeding on their resources, not its own. It doesn’t need to mate- it replicates itself. And with the right kind of environment, it can grow exponentially, as can be seen by the 1’s above. Viral Marketing, naturally, is something that draws upon these fundamental characteristics of a virus- exponential growth with minimum use of one’s own resources. It refers to any strategy that encourages individuals to pass on a ‘message’ to other individuals, who in turn pass it on to other people, and so on and so forth, thereby allowing for an exponential growth in the popularity and exposure of the message. This paper examines as to how viral marketing can make a brand name stand out from the competition and some strategies important to make viral marketing campaigns unique . The paper identifies trends that will increase the likelihood of a successful online viral marketing campaign and demonstrate how these strategies market.

...Recent trends in information system Introduction The advancement of technologies in business is changing the world of work. Businesses find they must incorporate many of the new technological procedures, processes, policies, hardware, and software into their environment to remain competitive. The impact from these technological advances on how work is performed affects the workforce far differently now than what has been seen over the past 25 years. One of the greatest impacts has been on the workers themselves, and the challenge of training and preparing to remain abreast in today’s workforce is tremendous. This challenge, which is facing today’s workers, is something educators cannot afford to ignore. Technology has created a revolution in today’s educational environment, and this change in education makes teaching more rewarding and far more challenging (Bryant, 2001).

There are lots of different types of maps to show different features of the real geography in a s[pic] |hvUhvU5?CJOJQJh LCJOJQJh|CJOJQJhP[OJQJmH sH #h Lh L5?CJOJQJmH sH #h Lh|5?CJOJQJmH sH h~o25?CJOJQJimplified but understandable form. The more ‘realistic’ the map, the less use it will be (you wouldn’t be able to unfold it, for one thing!). [2] Boin A & Lagadec P (2000) Preparing for the Future, Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, 8, 4, www.patricklagadec.net/fr/pdf/Preparing_the_future.pdf [3] Some define this probability as the value of this ratio as n tends to infinity [4] Of course, you may be surprised to learn that this is the wrong answer as the coin could land on its edge if left to land on a hard surface. If you Google ‘coin landing on its edge’ you will find that the chance of this happening is thought to be about 1 in 6000 (but we don’t really know!): so the true probabilities of ‘head’ and ‘tail’ are around 0.4999166 and of‘ edge’ around 0.000166667. How much would you pay for a gamble where you win £0 for ‘tails’ and £10 for ‘heads’ but lose your entire family’s wealth if it lands on the edge? Still £3 - £6?

...implement with regards to trending, they are; Scanning, Listening, and Forecasting. According to this author, the first strategy, scanning, is to identify the different media outlets, cultural developments and various brands to further investigate how other brands are performing in the market. This will provide insight as to the consumers view and trends toward current brands. The second strategy is listening, which focuses more on social media, and which communities are leading the discussions, and why. Social media gets you in touch with your customers, drives business to your websites, and opens the door to engage customer communications and so much more. If you’re not on social media, than you’re missing a huge opportunity to grow your business and get in touch with how your customers feel about various brands. The third strategy is forecasting. Forecasting is all about researching firms that trend for a living, such as Cassandra Daily and PSFK. (White., S. 2012) This can help you identify key movements in the market and possible opportunities to help you grow your business. By understanding what market trends affect your business, you could identify changes that could positively or negatively affect your business, such as online social media factors, brand awareness, and sudden changes in the economy that may directly affect consumer opinion toward spending.

...Trend Article Analysis University of Phoenix – MGT373 Jennifer Choy August 21, 2011 In this day and age there are millions of trends that are present in almost every industry. In order for an organization to be successful it is essential that they follow some of these trends so that their company appeals to people. This proves to be true for the event planning and convention industries. Two articles that pinpoint a couple different trends are “Nifty gadgets taking special events to a new level” and “ The article “Nifty gadgets taking special events to a new level” is a great example of trends within the planning and convention industries. In the years 2001-2004 these industries saw a huge decline in business. The reason for this was the failing economy. Companies and organizations could no longer fit events and gatherings into the budget. In 2005 event planning companies such as Dolce parties finally started to see an incline in corporate parties and events. However, these parties and events were at a much smaller scale. It was only the important people that were being invited to these gatherings because the budgets were still not back to where they were. Since the comeback of events was at a slow pace, event planners and convention industries decided to introduce some new gadgets to attract clientele. According to Stableford ( 2005)“Beyond the typical post-event surveys and evaluation of how many sales leads actually translate into qualified...

...Future Trends Charmaine Saint Surin OI/466 June 6, 2016 Fred Greifenstein Future Trends According to Webster.com dictionary, a trend is usually known as something undergoing change or is developing into something or going into a general or specific direction. Innovation is about timing, but there is not a theory behind it. It includes processes and new ideas and then they are converted into new useful products. It creates value for customers who pay for it. Disruptive Innovation is an all-out risk taker, creating new markets with more practical approaches towards buyer's purchasing power. What we know is that innovation does not have an end, it's the fact that what we want and what we need continues to change. Innovation is not the goal but everything we do to get to that point. I think collaboration within innovation is an revolving trend. This is the concept of an open source. With the internet age, there are so many people connected worldwide, so there is the fact of collaboration. It creates alternatives for companies who which are smaller to have the ability to remain small and agile. If that is the choice, it also allows those less ended businesses to be a part of the larger agenda in innovation. Innovation is a connected function of communities. It seems like we are all trying to come up with new solutions that capture the technologies we encompass and maybe even working with alternatives reworking those technologies. An example of this is universities...

...when this promotion is going to end either. This information is supported by my findings too. The majority of the men I interviewed did say that they could no longer afford to spend large amounts of money on individual garments. Instead they stressed that before £100+ jeans would not have bothered them, however now they would be looking to spend below this figure. [pic] I felt that it was extremely important that I explored any weaknesses the consumers felt were an issue too. The main problem was that men would like to have some coloured denim within the range rather than just the same denim washes they always have. It was obvious that many consumers felt that there was not a wide enough range in terms of styles that reflects current trends; instead the styles are just subtle changes across their product range.

...a noun, “Fashion is a popular trend or the manner of doing something”. As a verb, it says “make into a particular or required form”. To me, fashion is a never ending cycle of various styles that people can express themselves through. It is a movement that allows individuals to show who they really are through clothes. Throughout the past 65 years, fashion evolved so much in so many different ways. I decided to take a look at those ways and to see how fashion has come about to what it is now and how some trends still remain the same until this day as a classic. The 60’s was the year that the television had a huge impact on what people were exposed to, such as fashion trends. It helped the youth stay in touch with what was...

...restaurants have been opening one after another due to its popularity and success which entrepreneurs saw as an opportunity to open other famous ramen restaurants as it has become a trend. In SM Megamall as I walk inside the new Mega Fashion Hall crowded with people in the late night, I take the elevator to go up on the 3rd floor of the building where the well-known recently opened ramen restaurant called Ippudo Ramen is. The first sight that will appear before your eyes after the elevator doors open will be a crowd of people lining up for Ippudo. The wait is definitely worth it as the food there is extravagant and definitely food that you will come back with. In an interview from Shigemi Kawahara, he said that the reason people line up in Ipuddo might be “Because it’s delicious. We train our staff that every single bowl of ramen has to have a smile and maybe our customers can feel that. It’s very easy to serve a good bowl of ramen. Delicious ramen is everywhere, but what’s important to us is the quality, the service and the cleanliness” (Japan’s World-Famous Ramen House Opens in Manila). I have eaten their food and I would like to say that the food is divine with rich flavors that Filipinos will love and so far has been the best ramen restaurant in the Philippines in my opinion. The food trend started pretty recently in the Philippines as Filipinos are only beginning to appreciate...
