Social Media can be a very useful tool when it comes to finding a job. That’s right, social media isn’t just to while away your time while you wait for your friends to come and pick you up. In fact, there have been so many social media sites dedicated to just helping you showcase your professional abilities. Let’s talk about those for a bit:
Youtube: If you are looking for a job in Digital Marketing, or in another creative field creating a Youtube page can be of great help. Youtube provides you with a platform to showcase your talents to your prospective employers. (Not to mention that if the youtube page starts getting significant hits, you can even earn a side income.) If you are looking for a Digital Marketing Job in Pune, create a channel that talks about your skills sets. Whether they are about SEO/SEM/Social Media Marketing secrets and tips you have learned.
Facebook: If Facebook is used wisely it can be a strategic tool in your job hunt process. If you have an image in mind about the type of company you would like to join, follow their company pages. See if they have employees tagged in their photos. Find out if you have any mutual friends that can introduce you to someone in the company. Companies tend to hire referrals at a higher rate than through other means.
Twitter: Twitter is usually flooded with job accounts. You need to find the right keywords to search. Just typing “Digital Marketing Jobs in India” on the twitter search bar throws up thousands and thousands of tweets regarding job posting. Look to see if the role you are looking for has been mentioned. Make your search very specific.
Social Media is a useful tool, one that I believe is better than job posting sites, because from our experience we have seen that updates are provided much more frequently on social media than on job posting sites.
LinkedIn: LinkedIn deserves a special section all to itself. It has been one of the most useful professional network sites in recent years. If you are looking for a job (or even otherwise) be active on LinkedIn. Try and make some relevant connections. Showcase your skills. Ask your friends and colleagues to recommend you for skills that they know you are good at. Post relevant articles that attract attention. If you do this well, you won’t have to apply for jobs, recruiters will be making you offers to join them.
Before you start applying though, a few things you have to consider:
Are you qualified for the job: Don’t make the mistake of applying for jobs that you are not qualified for? We don’t mean in term of experience, we mean in term of your education and skill sets. If you are looking for a job in Graphic Design and they are looking for personnel with Corel Draw or Adobe Illustrator you might want to reconsider applying till your strengthened your skills. Applying without reason might put the recruiter on your profile and it might come back to haunt you in future roles.
Updated Resume: Make sure to send the prospective employers an updated and interesting resume. We don’t mean lie but find ways to expressing your jobs in unusual ways. It will at the least leave an impression in the recruiter’s mind and might consider you. Always be honest, but leave a mark.
