Social Media
Use Social Media Tools to find your next Career
Social Media is the fastest growing trend amongst Recruitment. Human resources professionals are experiencing difficulties with recruiting candidates using the old fashion methods as a result of the new online networking worlds and social media. The top five social media sites are LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Blogs.
You can learn more about a company by searching their Company Page on LinkedIn or Facebook. See if you can follow them on Twitter to hear about updates or career openings, and see what videos they may have developed to emphasize why they are a great company to work for.
When employers are looking at your resume, they want to see how involved or not involved you may be online. It is not unheard of for a recruiter to check out your LinkedIn profile, after all, LinkedIn is a way to show your professional background and connect with your coworkers and business partners.
Be careful of the other sites. Appearing professional and skilled on LinkedIn and having your profile to 100% completeness surely is eye-catching, however be sure that you are appearing professional on all other sites on the internet too.
