Tweets, status updates and ‘following’ have all become a part of our everyday vocabulary, especially if you’re a part of any social media community. As for myself, social media has become a big part of my everyday life as it’s a great way for me to stay in contact with family and friends who live too far away to visit daily. It’s a place for me to post pictures of our family and adventures but it’s also a great way for me to stay in contact with friends from college, with whom without social media, I would undoubtedly not be in frequent contact.

As an active job seeker, you’re likely ready and willing to pull out all of your resources to find a job. While working with a recruiter should be one of those tactics to use in your job search, it’s difficult to understand how to best use recruiters to your advantage.
