Seth Godin, the Marketing author and commentator has an interesting post on his blog about the selection process he went through to hire summer interns.
He was able to use Face Book as a way of simulating the same approach many firms go through during the screeing and assesment centre process with interns. It was completely free and, from what i can see, involved little work on his part other than just observing the behaviours of the individuals in the online groups before making some quick assesments.
He could quickly see which individuals took on leadership roles, which one were the followers and which ones he describes as the ‘game show’ contestants.
