Use Social Media to Land Your Dream Job

Building a professional network on social media is a smart idea even if you aren’t looking for a job just yet. Take the time to get to know the different channels, see how colleagues present themselves, and explore the differences between using the medium for business vs. pleasure.

When you’re ready to establish your own presence, don’t rush to do everything at once. Create profiles one day, join new groups the next, and follow companies you’re interested in as you go along. The more thoughtful you are about the process, the more rewarding the results will be.
