Job Search Tool / Twitter Resources

There are hundreds of websites for job seekers, such as Monster and CareerBuilder, but these three are designed specifically for Twitter recruitment:

TwitJobSearch: This site allows you to search for jobs posted on Twitter using keywords (for example, “Marketing in New York”). Click on a link to find a job’s specific recruiting page. Take a look at the Twitter users who are most frequently posting these listings; they might be worth following.

TweetMyJobs: TweetMyJobs will send you personalized job listings via email, Twitter or your mobile device. Geico, VISA, UPS and AT&T are among the major companies that use the site as a recruitment tool.

Twellow: Twellow organizes Twitter users by category, making it easier to find the right recruiters and influencers to follow in your job search. Twellow’s Twitter account also shares social media stories via WebProNews.com.
