Okay, whether you are an expert Tweeter or a
novice, by now you should get that Twitter is a
whole bunch of conversations happening at the
same time and in real-time. People are talking
about everything, and I do mean everything; what
they had for lunch, celebrity gossip, a bazillion
things that you care absolutely nothing about… and
jobs.
Now there are quite a few job boards out there that
are powered by Twitter! No doubt, you have posted
some of those jobs in your role as a recruiter.
However, as a recruiter who may be open to new
opportunities (wink-wink), do you know how to
search twitter for your next recruiter job?
Well, since you have downloaded this eBook,
my assumption going forward is that you do not
know how to search Twitter well enough to find
the recruiting job you are looking for or, you had
not considered Twitter in your job search and are
curious as to what I could say about it. Another
possibility is that you are going to consider the
search strategies I am sharing herein and will be
leveraging these tactics in the future to find passive
candidates.
Whichever category you’re in, dear reader, please
do read on!
Introduction
4
As you know, job boards cost money. However,
asking for a referral on Twitter is free. Consider the
following examples:
Job Boards Cost
Money. Asking for
Referrals is Free.
5
In the examples shared, none were from recruiters
looking to hire candidates. They were from business
owners and/or employees who work at a certain
company..
That being said, why not reach out to them and say,
“Hey, I notice you are looking to recruit X. I can help
you with that.” An added advantage of searching
Twitter is that it is possible to connect with people
in real time over something they just tweeted.
Imagine searching Twitter for “hiring recruiters” and
replying to the following tweets moments after they
were posted.
6
Another advantage to searching Twitter is that you
can save your searches by clicking the 3-dot menu
next to the search bar, highlighted in yellow.
Once you click the 3-dot menu, you will have a
“Save Search” option.
Save your searches
7
Filter search results
You can also quickly filter results via
people (those you follow or anyone) and
location (anywhere OR locations near you). I
recommend filtering People by “anyone” and
Location by “anywhere.”
In these times where so many people work from
home, leaving the location to “anywhere” will likely
increase more opportunities to choose from.
Now the next time you want to perform the same
search, simply click into the search box and your
saved searches will appear.
8
More searches to consider and
potentially save for future use:
· “my company is looking for”
· “I need to hire”
· “looking to hire”
· “looking t hire” {misspelling works too}
· “send me your resume”
· “send me your CV”
· “my company needs”
· dm me your resume
· “several positions available”
· “we’re hiring”
· “ramping up hires”
· “hiring sprees”
· “hiring more staff”
· “hiring more workers”
· “I need to hire” #NYC
· “I need to hire” #jobs
· “help wanted” #recruiter
· “my company” (hiring OR interviewing)
#atlanta
· (“tweet me” OR “DM me”) (#recruiter OR
#job)
· “now hiring” “know anyone” (“tweet me” OR
“DM me”)
· #recruiter #sourcer at #jobs
· looking for #senior #recruiter in
· #recruiter wanted for in
· #contract #recruiter #job
· (#seeking OR seeking) (#recruiter OR
recruiting) at #jobs
· #ATL #job #recruiter
· #ATL #hiring #recruiter
· #SFO #hiring #recruiter
· #hiring #recruiter (#wanted OR #job)
· #staffing #sourcer #job #virtual
9
Did you know that you can also target
companies with your twitter searches?
Something you might want to consider is
searching for keywords being tweeted from
company Twitter accounts you have an
interest in. For example, in the search below,
I am looking for the keyword “hiring” from @
ibm, @facebook and @google.
Target companies
