Social Media Can Get You HIRED
Can social media help you get hired faster? YES, if you use it the right way.
Laura Gainor did. In March, Laura Gainor saw a job posting on Twitter for a position at Comet Branding in Milwaukee, WI. Based on the ad, Gainor launched a social media campaign, which landed her the gig in less than 30 days.

Recruiter Todd Nilson (Twitter Handle: @talentline411) regularly posts job openings on Twitter. When asked if it works, he said (via Twitter), “So far so good. I get some kind people RTing [retweeting] me. Slightly better luck from LinkedIn updates, though.”

One expectation that many people have is that workers new to the professional world won’t make much money. Consider the stereotype that new college graduates have to move back in with their parents because they can’t afford to support themselves. The stereotype isn’t entirely unfounded. Walk into the apartments of most 20-somethings and you’ll see bare walls and furniture that was probably passed down from someone else. Tight budgets are just a part of starting your professional life.
As with all things, there are exceptions. Not every new worker is trying to earn enough to pay the bills. Some fresh-faced workers earn more than most Americans ever will.
