Blog Post: Job Searching with Twitter

Lately I have been using Twitter to look for candidates for my open jobs. I have been having great success attracting all levels of candidates to respond to my Twitters. By twittering many times a day I have been constantly adding new followers. Just yesterday I was able to speak to two candidates that my client has never spoken to before. This is a very valuable tool that I have added to my repertoire.

That got me thinking that Twitter is definitely a great tool for people actively looking for jobs as well. I have many followers from many different cities that are posting jobs. Some of them are posting 8-10 jobs every day. If you are looking for a job it would be very smart to follow these twitterers. My followers and people I am following vary from individual recruiters to job boards, to regional job sites to corporate job boards. All of them are twittering about their open jobs all day long. I think it would be very smart to add Twitter to your job search toolkit if you are looking for a job now.
