Are you tired of people going on about Twitter? Well, it’s not going to ends anytime soon with talk about them being bought out and the value their search provides. One outfit, TwitterJobSearch.com, is bringing value to people, even those that don’t use Twitter, by compiling all the data about jobs on Twitter.
What’s even cooler is that they’re looking at context, so it’s not people talking about certain jobs, it’s actual available posted position possibility.
What’s extra freakin, even cooler is that you can add locations to your search as well. After your search, you have the option of saving (requires twitter account) it or viewing it.
There’s a nice Browse feature as well that shows jobs by field. In addition, you can subscribe to a search via RSS to get updates for your interest or field. All together, a rockin’ use for Twitter
My biggest advice beyond this? Find jobs through the TwitterJobSearch, then find people that work there through Twitter or LinkedIn. It’s a whole heck of lot easier to get jobs through people than applications or agencies.

Yes, finally something useful
Plenty of Catia too, Pro/E had quite a few, a smattering of SolidEdge too.
No problem Jeff. My brother got laid off, so that has inspired a few of these post. Really hoping it helps spur some networking and job finding!
Great post Josh that can help out everyone who has lost a job or may be looking for one due to their current job possibly going away (like mine might soon).
I wonder if/when Twitter become the new job posting mecca for HR and recruiters?
I'm continually seeing jobs posted from the people I'm following. I kept thinking it would be great if this was served up as a twitter app. good to see it has.
btw, I saw your comment posted to Twitter and followed it back here. Cool stuff man!
Great info Josh,
This looks like a good thing. Twitter is expanding.
