Using Social Media In Your Job Search 101 | Expert Tips On Using Social Media to Get Your Next Job

Social media is one of the most overlooked ways to search for jobs — which is strange,
because it’s also one of the most effective.

That’s right, approximately 92% of companies use social media to directly hire candidates, so if you haven’t incorporated this option into your job search, you should!

Today, I’m showing you exactly how to perfect your profile and get it in front of recruiters at your
dream brands. We’ll be covering job search hashtags, following strategies, connection tips, and
more.
I’ll also be showing you how to use social media for job searches, and how to set up alerts that
tell you the moment a dream job posts on socials. That way, you’ll be one of the first applicants
to hit the recruiter’s desk — er, DMs — and you stand a better chance of winning your dream
role.
