SYNOPSIS
Love it or hate it, social media has opened a whole new communication channel that has revolutionised our lives. With so many social media platforms now available, service providers focus on particular interactions to offer a specialised service. This is most apparent in the recruitment landscape where ‘recruiters' now actively search dedicated platforms looking for candidates.
An active and visible social media presence is therefore essential to maximise the opportunity of landing that first, or indeed any, new job.
