I wouldn't recommend pursuing career opportunities in social networks. The entire industry feels so fragmented, with so many new social networks, it is easy to get lost and actually continue to spin your wheels in the searching process. The media is doing a great job pushing social networking sites like twiiter, facebook, myspace , linkedin, etc, to find jobs.
Realistically social networks are designed for people stay in touch with friends and to gossip, they lack the structure and are essentially not designed to help you find a job/career opportunity. I would recommend creating a great resume, sticking to upcoming job boards/major job boards to post your resume and search for jobs. This way your resume will receive maximum exposure from active employers and you can search through the best career opportunities currently available. I would recommend going to Inovahire.com, indeed.com, careerbuilder.com, monster.com, even craigslist before social networks. I wish you the best of luck! Ads |
