The following article in BusinessWeek, “Is Twitter the Next Monster? “, is an interesting discussion (especially the comments) about how to mine Twitter for potential jobs. For example, even just using the standard search capabilities of twitter – i.e. http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23jobs+boston – is something to consider. There are already people building avenues to mine this for jobs easier, such as:
- http://www.tweetcruit.com/
- http://www.twithire.com/
- http://www.tweetmyjobs.com
- http://blellow.com/jobs
Companies are also setting up there own Twitter accounts, such as AT&T – @attjobs.
