Hiring!! The first thing you would do would be to go onto a Job Board. But Job Board’s might just become a thing of the past, as one company is using Twitter to recruit people for Jobs.

In February 2009, Twitter had about 7.1 million users. It was a big growth from the last year. Some of the companies found this growth rate a great opportunity to recruit people for jobs.

In the recent news, we saw that two people from a digital advertising agency Organic said that they were using Twitter for their Job posting. He went on to say that “Once we have an opening that might be a fit for a Twitter friend, rather than making a cold call to a stranger, we can make a “warm tweet.”

Another important benefit is that there are no time constraints,and thus you can tweet a candidate at any point of time without disturbing their busy schedule.Thus making it very convenient.

To add to this Twitter is free unlike many Job Boards.:)

So lets “Tweet” away, and find the right candidate….

Most of the people are not very clear from our product geekevaluation , if it can be used for non technical tests. In fact , we have mentioned very clearly that we have a set of topics for pre-employment test , so that users can customize a test from those topics.  But they can also add their own questions.

In fact we are coming out with another product where companies would be able to hire the people with relevant skill to create test questions for them. The  job screening and pre-employment test test can be customized as per users needs.
