Just got an email from a friend of mine who’s looking for a new opportunity and how he used Twitter & LinkedIn to get 2 interviews in 30 minutes. The email is below:
Unbelievable how fast this online media stuff can connect you. Looking for a job, got a Twitter feed this morning of best companies to work for in America. <company name> with Denver office came up. Quick visit to the site, dropped off my resume. Jumped on LinkedIn, <contact> had 2nd degree connection with senior guy over there, who is also an EMBA. Sent him an email and we have lunch on Saturday. Did a hash tag search on twitter, found the recruiting director of Denver on there. Sent her a message. We have coffee next week. Searched the company on LinkedIn, found a connection with the national recruiting director. Sent him a message. And, the senior guy’s wife does Crossfit and was stoked that I was involved. He found out (I was into Crossfit) on my linked in group. And the network never stops growing…
What can I say?
Wow that really does illustrate the power of social networking. I doubt many career advisers have cottoned on to this avenue of job seeking yet but I’m sure that in a few years time job hunting in this style will be the norm.
