Career-oriented social networking site

A career-oriented social networking site (CSNS) is a social networking site which primary purpose is career-oriented (e.g. finding new jobs or employees).[1]

LinkedIn and XING rank among the most important career-oriented social networking sites. Despite some specific challenges[2][3][4] when contracting employees electronically the 2015 CSNS figures, such as 380 mio. registered LinkedIn members, 4 mio. company profiles on LinkedIn, 15 mio. XING members, and 200,000 company profiles on XING, show the significant recruiting potential of CSNS.
