How to Find Jobs Using Online Social Networks

Create a professional resume. The resume should be at least one page and include the most recent employment first. Use bullet points and write in fragmented sentences using action words. For example, "coordinated," "produced" and "budgeted" are keywords to mention in every resume.

Establish accounts with online social networking tailored to hiring. LinkedIn is a popular option among professionals. Also, there is a jobs section on the website that can be categorized by sector. In order to branch out further, Facebook and Twitter are places to use connections to collect data on the latest job opportunities. 

Friends may advertise freelance, and permanent opportunities through direct messages. Post a professional photo and basic contact information. The picture should be a recent head-shot. Make sure it meets size requirements for each business profile sites

The contact information should include a phone number and email at minimum. It may be mentioned within a short paragraph summary when applicable for your professional profile background. Seek connections with people working in the jobs you want. 

Join groups online that fit the category you desire employment. Attempt to obtain a meeting or connect personally outside the social network groups. Follow-up with job openings applied for. Send direct messages to hiring managers in human resources departments. Find out when candidates for the position will be contacted for interviews.
Here are the new social networking sites list.
