Social media platforms provide a meeting point for job seekers to gain access to recruiters and hiring managers alike.

In my line of work as a recruiter, with special interest in social recruiting, I spend quite a number of time on social media and I do encounter quite a number of funny cum annoying scenarios exhibited by a few job seekers who lack how best to use social media in their favor.

So for job seekers to use social media to their advantage they must avoid a few social media mistakes discussed in this week’s podcast.

1. Social Media Sense of Entitlement
2. Failure to know Your social media audience
3. Ignoring Social networking etiquette
4. Lack of a Professional Online Presence
5. Substituting Social networking with Face-to-face networking
