There are now many great resources now to help job seekers better utilize Twitter in their job search. I have put together a few of my old favorites and a couple of new ones to help job seekers either get started or take it to the next level.
The first thing to do after you set up your twitter account is follow some people who regularly post job search advice and job openings on Twitter. The list below was announced this week by Ryon Harms, The Social Executive, and is a “hand-picked collection of the 100 most influential personal branding gurus, power networkers, resume and interview experts, job boards and fellow executives on Twitter. If you’re seeking out resources to assist you with your job search or for career advice, Harms calls his list the “who’s who of career management.”
Follow TheCareer100 on Twitter to get assorted posts from all of these resources. I know or follow many on this list, Ryon did his homework. For more info about the list check out @TheCareer100 Must-Follow Mavens on Twitter by Ryon Harms, and The Social Executive: @TheCareer100 must-follow mavens on Twitter by Stephanie Lloyd.
Next, go to the Advanced Twitter Search and type in the word jobs in the space next to "This hashtag". Then type in your zip code next to "Near this place". Companies and recruiters now regularly attach #jobs to their postings on Twitter to make this a convenient way for job seekers to search.
Hope this is helpful. Feel free to contact me if you need assistance. And please follow me on Twitter! @Fishdogs
