In the TechRepublic article Amazon, Disney, and Uber reveal remote interviewing and hiring processes, N.F. Mendoza looks at key human resource trends and predictions regarding remote hiring.

Aside from figuring how to handle all the subtleties of remote hiring, there are plenty of cybersecurity challenges that also need to be addressed.

Of the professionals involved with social research, 57% have found content that prevented them from hiring candidates.

Schnee noted with so many remote workers and stay-at-home orders, social media usage has skyrocketed.

In her Digital Commerce 360 article, COVID-19 is changing how, why and how much we're using social media, she mentioned, "We surveyed over 4,500 Influenster community members in North America about how much they've been using social media during the pandemic, what they are using it for and how their behavior on social media has changed throughout the experience."

When hiring managers are unable to meet the new employee, Schnee offers the following advice: "Now more than ever, background checks are key in building trust and safety with new hires. A fully remote identity verification and background check process can help you trust your employee early in the onboarding."
