Can you find a job on Twitter -

Can you find a job on Twitter - Lindsay Olsen recently posted about how to help recruiters find you on Twitter. She should know, because she is a recruiter sourcing candidates on Twitter! In any case, she shared some data from a recent survey from Hubspot on the state of the Twittersphere. Of Twitter users: 79.79% failed to provide a homepage URL (My tip: use your LinkedIn URL if you have nothing else.) 75.86% of users have not entered a bio in their profile 68.68% have not specified a location 55.50% are not following anyone 54.88% have never tweeted 52.71% have no followers Honestly, I was not all that surprised to see this data. While Twitter has grown exponentially in terms of people who have profiles, I think many join because they cant turn on the TV without hearing someone talk about Twitter,   but they dont know what to do once they get there. I often talk to certain Tweeps about the fact that Twitter fanatics and uber-users (Twuber users?) forget that this social media stuff isnt second nature for everyone!
