say anything negative about your former employer, or keep repeating the message if your first posting doesn’t work.
5. Tweet frequently but not too regularly or it will look like Twitter is the primary focus of your day. One daily tweet connected to LinkedIn is often enough to raise your profile.
6. Tweet what you think is relevant to your audiences, pick up relevant hashtags from relevant discussions relating to your work sectors and include your LinkedIn profile on your CV so anyone looking you up will also be able to see your latest postings.
7. Thank others visibly where they mention or retweet you.
8. Don’t worry about producing original ideas or content. Focus on being current, relevant and sharing knowledge. Demonstrate
your enthusiasm and mention events or conferences you are attending, books you have read, or sites and people who inspire you.
9. Don’t get locked into electronic conversations only - try to turn those offers into direct (private, offline) messages and then actual conversations and meetings.
10. And a final reminder to keep your Twitter account career focused! If you want to look like a serious, committed candidate don’t slip into personal anecdotes about your dog, love life or favourite recipes. If you do want a fun account, give that Twitter account a title not directly linked to your real name.
Following these tips will help present a clear and simple picture of who you are and what you do. By being consistent with your Twitter
usage you will become known for what you say and how you use it, not only boosting your career, but also raising the possibility of exciting new job opportunities in the future.
