In the current economy, finding a job in hospitality is challenging. At the same time, there are more tools and options available to job seekers to make a comprehensive appeal to potential employers. One of those tools is Twitter. Twitter is a popular social micro blogging website with over 300 million users worldwide that include normal people, celebrities, organizations, and businesses.
It provides the perfect platform for job seekers in the hospitality industry to promote themselves on a larger stage than the wanted ad in the local newspaper. Here are some key strategies to make the most of your Twitter account when searching for a job in hospitality.
Create An Appealing Profile
Twitter is a public site, so be careful about how you present yourself. Just like how you need to dress properly for a job interview, you need to present an image that is mature and professional in you Twitter bio. Even if you don't actively search for a job using Twitter, companies will still research your profile on social media sites as part of a background check. So make sure to put your best foot forward. Make a profile that presents who you are and what you want out of life and your career.
Follow, Follow, Follow
Follow groups, organizations, and most importantly companies on Twitter. This is the best way to find out about job availabilities, hear industry news, and introduce yourself to key people in the industry. Following hospitality Twitter feeds is a powerful method to make great networking connections in the hospitality industry without having to go to exclusive events. You can even follow job boards and get constant updates on jobs in hospitality. In addition, you can also follow trends. If there is a new type of career or opportunity trending on Twitter, you can find and follow tweets by searching for hashtags.
Make the Most of Personal Connections
Advancing your career sometimes comes down to who you know. Make an effort to find friends and family that have connections or jobs in the hospitality industry and make sure to follow people in their own social media networks. This is a powerful way to find out about new opportunities in your area that aren't publically advertised.
Tweet And Retweet
The best aspect of social media is how easy it is to interact with others. You just need to tweet, retweet, and reply to other tweets. You can tweet about previous experiences in the hospitality industry, comment on industry news, and put out announcements or questions about job opportunities. More importantly, you can retweet or reply to posts by companies and key industry personalities to get their attention and create options to share your resume.
Get Started Today
Twitter can be a powerful tool in your hospitality job search, but only if you make the effort use it. So get started today. Just as with regular job applications, make the effort to do something everyday that helps you find a job. With consistent effort, you can land your dream job in hospitality.
