Hey friends! I get A LOT of questions on how to find a job on Twitter so I compiled a brief list. This is definitely 101 type of information!

If you want to watch the actual episode on where I break all this down on my live stream - youtu.be/KRSvEOjrVYE

Banner cover photo, take advantage of this

  • This is a way to endear yourself to your followers
  • Bring something about you to your banner photo

Your profile picture is the very first impression people get of you

  • Look happy…if you are moody and a hiring manager comes upon your profile they won’t want to hire a moody person

The bio description is very important

  • Talk about who you are, what you do and what you tweet about

Location

  • Enter this… a lot of times recruiters still want to know where you are located even if its a remote job

Single most important area of a Twitter profile is the Pinned Tweet

  • Pinning a Tweet means it's the first one someone will see when they visit your profile
  • Make sure you absolutely capitlize on this pinned tweet (check out my video I have on mine) no you don’t need a video but this is PRIME real estate

Use lists in Twitter

  • Lists help you to connect with the RIGHT people
  • Helps you start connecting with folks in a community that are applicable to you

Posting

  • Just start
  • Be short but be frequent
  • Be consistent
  • Like and comment and Interact
  • Be engaged everyday
  • Hashtags – periodic use is sufficient
