How to Use Facebook in Your Job/Internship Search
The most efficient way to use Facebook in your job/internship search is to update your status with relevant information.
(For example, if your looking for a job/internship and you let your friends know, they will want to help you—perhaps by
passing along a contact that they know is hiring.)
Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets.
What the Heck is it?
Short, sweet and to the point.140 characters (not words, not letters, characters) to say what you
want to say to your followers.
What’s your
message?
