Create your IT recruiting network

Can you even remember how you networked with other people before the existence of social media? Social media sites like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook greatly have enhanced your networking efforts. Now, the three benefits of utilizing social media networks is number one, you identify better talent through your connections. Number two, social media is cost-effective, in most instances there is no cost, and number three, this solidifies your brand. You're presenting yourself as an expert on these different social media sites.

Now, there are a number of social media fundamentals that I'd like to discuss with you. First of all, you want to get connected where it counts. Let's start with LinkedIn, because this is the resource used by most technical recruiters. Your LinkedIn profile, however, should sell your abilities, it shouldn't just regurgitate your resume or CV. This is also a platform where you can share your expertise, you can be now recognized as an expert in your field. If you click on publish a post.
