How to find a job using social media
// December 30th, 2009 // No Comments » // Uncategorized
Twitter, Facebook, Linked In… who cares you say “I’m unemployed”.
If you want to stay unemployed then you shouldn’t care, but if you really want a job (or something better than your current job) here’s our proven strategy that 999 out of 1,000 job seekers aren’t using.
1. Find a company you are interested in.
2. Find out who works there through linked in.
3. Look at what groups that person is in.
4. Join whichever group you and the person share a common interest in. (this allows you to send them a message)
5. Most importantly in sending a message or networking in general, don’t ask anyone for a job outright, instead say you are really interested in *xyz* and want to learn more about it from them.
People like to help others. People like to hire people they know. Getting to know people, is the best way to get a job.
Or you can continue to waste your time submitting resumes online, your choice.
