Cloud Recruiting [kloud] [ri-kroot-ing] –noun 1. The concept of outsourcing recruiting using a data driven, highly predictive process utilizing the collective intelligence of successful hires, the expanded candidate reach of crowd sourcing through known and unknown social connections allowing recruiting capacity to scale on-demand in a highly capital and resource efficient manner leveraging software as a service (SaaS) in a cloud computing model. Instead of manual, resource intensive techniques of traditional recruiting models, Cloud Recruiting harnesses the power of today’s networked and socially connected world leveraging the following 3 major concepts: •	Cloud Computing: The provisioning of computing resources (applications, database, storage, network capacity) on demand via a computer network •	Collective Intelligence: The shared or group intelligence that emerges from the collaboration and competition of many individuals and appears in consensus decision making in bacteria, animals, humans and computer networks •	Crowd Sourcing: The act of outsourcing tasks, traditionally performed by an employee or contractor, to an undefined, large group of people or community(s) through an open call

A very popular company adopting this concept is CloudRecruit.
