@Sj_Fuller Lands A Job: The REAL Part Of Social Media In Gen Y Job Search
Sarah Fuller (@sj_fuller) is a recent graduate who embraces social media and all that it brings. Sarah is part evangelist, part practitioner, my sometimes intern and blog collaborator. I recently started to feature Sarah as a guest blogger because I wanted to get a real Gen Y view on social-media, because most of the Gen […]
My Twitter Toolbox
I really enjoyed talking Twitter at the london social Media Meet Up, which was a great follow up to Tuesdays london blog club. these local groups, with shared interests offer a great opportunity for networking and sharing with others.
