Finding A Job Made Easy

There could not possibly be a better time than now to have a tool that is up-to-the-minute with posts about job openings. In this economy, expediting the process of pairing an unemployed person with skills suitable for an opening at a company would be extraordinarily beneficial for both parties. Who would've thought that "Twitter" could be somebody's saving grace?

According to an article posted on TechCrunch, "TwitterJobSearch" is pairing up with "TweetDeck" to form a desktop client. "Job Deck" will allow users to directly access newly posted Job openings directly from their desktop, to expedite the jobs search for employees and vice-versa.

While this news article was more about pairing of the two companies, I had not even realized that a Twitter filter that identifies job postings even existed. As a 21 year old college student likely to be on the job hunt in the near future, this unique tool is extremely appealing. Pair this Twitter filter up with LinkedIn and we may find ourselves approaching the job search a lot differently in the future than we currently do.

Wouldn't it be nice if instead of working tirelessly to get your foot in the door somewhere, a recruiter instead found YOU? Based on the availability of work related information on a social networking site like LinkedIn, the potential for this new technology-based job hunt is growing rapidly.
