Question 1:

Organizations that are using internet to advertise jobs, recruit employees, or find potential employees will be able to reach much more candidates in a timely fashion. But the candidates may be from such a broad pool as needed or wanted. As Dessler (2014, pg. 151) says, fewer older people and some minorities use the internet, so online application gathering may inadvertently exclude disproportionate numbers of older applicants (and minorities). To ensure this does not cause problems organizations may need to use applicant tracking systems. These are online systems that help employers attract, gather, screen, compile, and manage applicants.

From an applicant's perspective they are able to apply to many more jobs in a much quicker time and are also able to research jobs they are applying for before applying. They can learn the history of the company and get a good description of the job, hopefully.

Question 2:

Some opportunities for organizations using the Internet to facilitate the staffing process is gaining a wider applicant pool, which can be kept manageable with specific criteria placed on the applicant prior to applying (Dessler, 2013, p. 151). Another advantage is testing the waters this can be seen by the types of applicants they are receiving which will let HR know if the posting online is attracting the ideal candidates.

Major problems for organizations using the Internet to facilitate the staffing process is Internet overload and second is the possible exclusion of minorities and older applicant who do not use the Internet as a common resource (Dessler, 2013, p. 151). Another pitfall is if this is the first screening process the results could be less than desirable; anyone can be anything online.
Savvy social media applicants can utilize the Internet to an extreme advantage. Through the multitude of social sites, such as, linked-in, Facebook and many more individuals can discover an opportunity much more quickly than through a job board. However, for those not in the know this can be their worst adversary.
