  1. I did not know you can do a job search using tweeter. I usually use the local online job search website. Thank you for sharing these.

    1. Twitter is best used to get

      $ gUaP $

      Instead of a job. And, the best thing also about Twitter is that you can use it to build a million-dollar online business with free traffic 🙂

    2. for those who know how to use Twitter effectively, instead of using twitter to do a job search, they would use it to make money online 🙂

  2. Wow, great post… but also great information for employers. I’m not exactly the worlds biggest employer but have found twitter to be incredibly useful for finding exactly the right person for a particular job… This has just been through tweeting the job and asking for it to be re-tweeted…. Simple but super effective!

    1. sounds like you’ve experienced success with twitter, Robin. Why don’t you write a review and publish that to your site 🙂

    1. Welcome to this marvelous blog)) You wrote a very interesting post that will be certainly highly evaluated be all readers (I’m among them). Thanks a lot for it!

  3. I had not a clue that you could do that with Twitter. I knew that LinkedIn was a great social networking business professional website, whereas anyone can network with others to hopefully land a specific job with the company of their dreams. But nowadays, ppl mostly use Twitter to get $ gUaP $ from tweeting while increasing their ad revenue “$ gUaP $ means [money]” by the ways…LOL =)

  4. This is really interesting, I have heard a lot lately about how Twitter is getting used for searching for all kinds of things. Twitter search is going to be big.

  5. I live in Denmark, and although I regularly see people tweeting looking to hire people, I never knew about any of these tools. Do you know if they’re only for the USA, or if there’s a Danish version?

    That’s a great article, I never thought that we can use twitter to search jobs….. it’s fantastic. Social media is now doing everything that we need now a days.

  8. Facebook is also useful. Any social networking helps if you know how to use it 🙂

  9. it’s about time that twitter start catching up with Facebook and Google plus, in terms of updating the look of their site, and adding additional site functions 🙂

    1. I actually think Twitter is great and it doesn’t need to catch up. I wish it stayed the same. I am tired of seeing the major social networks copy each others’ features!

      1. I couldn’t agree with you more, on seeing social networks potentially copy the features of others, I love Google plus, as well as loving Twitter. Just gotta love them both equally 🙂

  14. Agree with your view. One can also use stayfired.com to search jobs posted at top social and professional networking sites.

  15. Those who are new to the market don’t realize that it was not that long ago that the job search revolved around the classified ads in newspapers, mailing letters and resumes and spending many dollars doing so and waiting. The Internet is such a wonderful contribution to the world of job hunting.

  16. Hey Jessy! I never thought of actually finding jobs via Twitter! All I thought was that Twitter is just for expressing yourself within 140 characters! But these are really gr8 ways to make the best use of it! Cheers
