FIND JOBS NOW WITH SOCIAL NETWORKING

IDEA: Sharing & Finding Jobs

If you come across an interesting job post [online or through word-of-mouth] share it.

If you are searching for a job, the folks that post to Twitter using #job" are helping you find one of the following...

• Job
  
• Next Job
• Better Job

How does this work?

Simple, include the following in the post to Twitter...

• "#job" [This will help people find it]
  
• Job title or responsibilities
  
• Location / Geographic area
  
• Firm
• Link to posting [use TinyURL] to make it fit

Below is one posted the other day. The order isn't important overall. The order listed above is probably the most effective for posting.

Set up and subscribe to the RSS for that search. Look for "Feed for this query" on the Summize search above.
