Amazing how Twitter works. I signed up for an account - as a requirement for my class. If you want to follow my tweets, my user name is elainemarie1.
At first I thought - really, what is all the noise about? Is this going to benefit me in any way? I had to get past the followers who were interested in providing me information that would make me blush if I read it (and that continues almost daily) but that is just a new form of spam. I find though that my horizons are broadening by following the tweets of people from around the country. I'm following news in a different way than I ever have before.
Now, here is the beauty of this related to my job search. Someone named Ken Horst, the jobs guy, found me, and I am now getting tweets from him. When I did a bit of research, I find that he is essentially the "front man" for a major (or what seems to be major) recruiting firm. Hospitality industry and more. So if I go to his list of tweets, I can see hundreds of jobs from all over the country, from general manager to bell staff. Interesting...a new way of finding a job! Along the way it appears that he has shared articles that are of benefit to those in the job market.
Here is a link to the company's Web site: http://allianceq.com/Default.aspx
So...for the meantime, this appears to be another place where I can find where the jobs are....
