Don’t be afraid of Twitter! In today’s episode, I tell you exactly how to integrate Twitter into your job search. Do NOT be scared of Twitter any longer! It is truly an untapped resource for your job search!

I teach a career development course at DeVry University and the other night I was doing a social media tutorial. I asked everyone what social media accounts they used and everyone had a LinkedIn account and a Facebook but NO ONE had a Twitter account.

My students thought I was crazy when I said it was a great job searching website!

Tune in to learn how to use Twitter to find your next job:

Here is a checklist you can use to search for a job on Twitter.

• Create a list of recruiters (search recruiter, (your city)

• Professional photo and bio (160 characters only)

• Link bio to your LinkedIn profile or online portfolio

• Make sure what you tweet is job-related (quotes, a question, an insight, a recommendation, something personal occasionally)

• Participate in tweet chats for your industry

• Uncover Twitter Job boards (search (your city) jobs) and add to local jobs list

• Follow twitter hashtags #jobs #careers #employment

• Set up a week of tweets in 10 minutes (twuffer.com)

• Retweet people you are interested in (flatter them!)

• Follow industry blogs and news sites to stay up to date with the knowledge you need for interviews
