　　Be engaged in your industry: Chances are that your industry of choice — no matter what the field — will have a significant Twitter presence. Be someone who contributes to the conversation both by interacting with established career folks passing on relevant articles. The ultimate goal is f others to look to you as a thought leader in the industry.

　　和你所选的行业积极互动。你所选的行业——不论是什么——都可能拥有一个庞大的微博群体。你可以通过与那些行业中的成功人士交流或是转发一些相关文章来加入互动。你的终极目标是让其他人觉得你是该行业的一位意见领袖。

　　Use it as the starting point: A Twesume might be a good idea, but you´´ll also want prospective employers to learn me about you. Hook up your Twitter profile to your linkedIn page personal website. Make it easy f them to get a sense of the bigger picture of what you´´re capable of.

　　将它作为一个起点：一份“微简历”或许是个不错的主意，但你也需要你的雇主更多地去了解你。你可以把你的微博主页和你的linkedIn主页或是个人网站联系起来。让人们能更好的对你的能力有个全面的了解。

　　Take part in industry chats: One of the best things about Twitter is interacting with people you wouldn´´t necessarily meet in person. an d one of the best ways to do that is by joining chats related to your field of interest.

　　加入行业讨论：微博最有意思的一点在于能把那些你在私下不会遇到的人们通过网络和你联系在一起。做到这一点最好的方法就是加入那些和你的行业有关的讨论。这不但能为你认识新联系人制造借口（“你当时说那句话是什么意思?”），也能让你保持对行业最新进展的了解。

　　让别人知道你在找工作：你应该公开宣告（或提醒别人）你正在找工作，这样他们才能帮助你和那些正需要招人的人联系。但是不要刷屏，那很令人讨厌，也不要只在你需要什么的时候才去和别人打交道。

　　Go to the source: Follow hiring managers, recruiters, an d acs dedicated to promoting job openings. Sometimes you´´ll get wd of a job through Twitter befe it´´s even posted on the company website, giving you a leg up on the competition.

　　追根溯源：关注那些人事部经理、招聘者、以及那些致力于促进就业机会的账号。有时候你通过微博甚至能在官网上贴出招聘信息前得知工作相关的信息，这能在竞争中助你一臂之力。
