Have you thought about using Twitter to help in your job hunting efforts?
While I’m waiting to confirm my application to the OSEB program, I’m still required to be job hunting (the primary purpose of this blog) full time, which is the reason for my somewhat out of place talk about job hunting while I’m networking at small business events. I’ve always enjoyed working as an employee and part of a team, primarily because I love the social interaction and accessibility of interesting and influential people.
So I have to wonder about the current etiquette on Twitter for job seekers: When the hiring manager is on the uber social networking site, Twitter & Tweeting about the job, is it OK to contact them directly and ask about the position?
I almost feel compelled to pick up the phone and talk to the person, since they’re so easily available online I’d bet most people contact them through those channels. What do you think?
