Tips

About Job Boards

Twitter’s job boards, just like any other job boards online,are not the best source for you to find the jobs you want.

I want you to concentrate on what we’ve talked abouttoday in putting your best foot forward on Twitter and

establishing connections with others there.

More than anything else, Twitter is a networking tool.

Best of Luck
