Twitter Resume
Have you invested in a professional resume? Have you created a VisualCV? And a Linkedin profile? Is your resume posted on Monster? Workopolis? And if that doesn’t have your head spinning, did you know that you can now have a Twitter Resume?
At twtjobs you can create your Twitter Resume with the same basic principals used in Twitter. Start with a headline, and write your “resume”. If you know Twitter, you won’t be surprised to find out that your resume must be written using no more than 140 characters. It actually gives you lots to think about, ”If your resume was limited to 140 characters, what would you tell a potential employer?” Although the content is limited, you are able to add Skill Tags to enhance your information.
Additional information, although limited to a drop down box, is available to add to your Twitter Resume including, industry type, education level and years of experience.
If you have invested in your professional profile on Linkedin, there is no need to be concerned about the limited content in your Twitter Resume because you have the option to link it to your Linkedin profile.

Hello Martin.
I just checked http://twtjobs.com/ and saw note
below:
“We have decided to discontinue TwtJobs to focus on our other more popular services. Any resume and job openings that you have created using TwtJobs are still available, however no new ones can be created.
Be sure to check our other products at 63squares.com.”

Thanks for the update Susan. It is actually surprising that much of the information from this post dated May 7th, 2009 is still somewhat accurate! Even a short break from social media is sure to present changes upon your return. It’s a good reminder to check dates to ensure information is not outdated and even then there are no assurances. I recently watched a video on using Facebook that was done prior to a major overhaul. Needless to say, most of it was no longer applicable.
