The #FollowFriday Series highlights today’s up-and-coming, active and all-around noteworthy Twitter accounts the AudioAcrobat staff deems worthy of following; while at the same time peering deeper into the soul(-cial media) of each account and providing a brief-yet-informative analysis.
Welcome back for the twenty-sixth #FollowFriday tweet / WordPress mashup of 2012 here on the AudioAcrobat Weblog!
While this post roughly marks the 1/2 way point through 2012, there is nothing about today’s featured twitter account that is short of being 100% amazing. If you’re seeking to hire skilled people that you are separated by no more than one degree from (school, work, friends, etc.), this seems to be THE place to start, especially seeing as how their network is now over 5 million strong!
In today’s post, we will dive deeper into the tweets of Ireland/Singapore/Palo Alto-based social hiring service, SkillPages (@skillpages) and the Twitter accounts they have chosen to follow … a mirror, if you will, into the soul(-cial media) behind a company who makes it effortless to find skilled people.
Yep. That’s right, we just said it … “soulcial media”. We also said, “a company who makes it effortless to find skilled people” in the same sentence.
