ABSTRACT Companies are implementing social media for marketing, advertising, employee recruitment, and overall communications with employees, clients, and partners. Small businesses are able to gain substantial value from social media but there are also many challenges. In this research, the Technology-Organization-Environment framework, the Resource-Based View theory, and interview data are combined to develop a model of social media usage and value for small businesses. Survey data from small businesses from a variety of industries and geographical locations are collected to validate the model. Results indicate that technology competence, pressure from clients, and characteristics of the mobile environment are significant antecedents of social media usage. The dimensions of social media value—perceived impact on internal operations, marketing, customer service, and sales—are also significant. Implications and avenues for future research are discussed.

Use Of Social Media

Social media has become a tool used for the process of employee recruitment in a range of industries. The technology is utilised by job candidates and by employers and job-recruiters to screen and source suitable staff for their organisations. Research has investigated issues relating to ethics, privacy and accuracy regarding employers’ use of social media to screen prospective employees. Yet, limited research has been conducted to investigate employer perceptions of prospective/current employees’ unprofessional social media behavior. Our study involved a survey of 396 Australia employers from a range of industries to explore the influence of job-candidates’ social media presence on employer decision-making and the most unprofessional social media behaviors according to employers. Our investigation found 82% of employers are influenced by a job candidate’s social media presence and using social media to intentionally cause harm to others was perceived by employers as the most unprofessional social media behavior. The findings from this study will assist educators in guiding university students and graduates to meet industry expectations as professionals and provide scholars with new knowledge as to what is deemed to be unacceptable behavior in a professional context at this point in the evolution of social media.

Emotion detection is important in various fields such as education, business, employee recruitment. In this study, emotions will be detected with text that comes from Twitter because social media makes users tend to express emotions through text posts. One of the social media that has the highest user growth rate in Indonesia is Twitter. This study will use the LSTM method because this method is proven to be better than previous studies. Word embedding fast text will also be used in this study to improve Word2Vec and GloVe that cannot handle the problem of out of vocabulary (OOV). This research produces the best accuracy for each word embedding as follows, Word2Vec produces an accuracy of 73,15%, GloVe produces an accuracy of 60,10%, fast text produces an accuracy of 73,15%. The conclusion in this study is the best accuracy was obtained by Word2Vec and fast text. The fast text has the advantage of handling the problem of out of vocabulary (OOV), but in this study, it cannot improve the accuracy of word 2vec. This study has not been able to produce very good accuracy. This is because of the data used. In future works, to get even better results, it is expected to apply other deep learning methods, such as CNN, BiLSTM, etc. It is hoped that more data will be used in future studies.
