April 30, 2010, Newsletter Issue #46: When You Know What You Want, Tweet

Tip of the Week

By now most people have at least heard of Twitter, the blog-like social networking site that limits communications to 140 characters or less. Even if you think Twitter is frivolous, it is another relatively convenient way to make yourself known to people in your field.

Keep these points in mind for how to use Twitter to identify your ideal job:

· Tweet about issues in your field. This is one way to get members of your specialty (and potential employers) to “follow” you.

· Find experts in your field and follow them. You can stay on top of current issues in your specialty, which will come in handy during a job interview.

Although there are stories of people finding jobs via Twitter, it’s best to think of it as yet another job search tool. In fact, if you use Twitter to identify prospective employers, you may be able to work with physician staffing companies to find out about specific jobs for physicians and land an interview.
