Why Post Your Job Ad Here?

If you are new to social media, you may be wondering why should you post your job ad here on socialmediajobs.com.au. The answer is quite simple really:

• Only people who are looking SPECIFICALLY for social media related jobs will be coming here. We will not be catering for a wider stream of job seeker
• We are using social media such as Twitter, blogs and good old fashioned word-of-mouth to inform people of the site. This means that the folks who apply are already ACTIVE social media participants
• Because social media is still relatively new, those with the experience are those who are passionate. The fact that someone applies for your role through this site indicates that they come with some level of actual experience — or at least access to a strong, collaborative, global community

Finally, this site is about connecting the connectors. “Connectors” are those in a community who know a large number of people, or as Malcolm Gladwell suggests, are people “who link us up with the world”. These people are essential to the success of any social media effort — and you will find more of them here than on the generic job sites.

And, as always, your feedback is more than welcome.
