Twitter lists and Internet recruiting

Morning all,

What's your take on Twitter lists? I came across a great post by Maureen over at
http://magicmethod.ning.com/profiles/blogs/sourcers-on-twitter
and was happily going to make a Twitter list out of those folks, when I discovered that Irina already did at

Further exploration saw nifty neato recruiter lists like

and lots more.

Are you using Twitter lists for your recruiting? I can certainly see some useful applications of it.

Hi Barbara,

RecruitingBlogs actually has one of its own, it's the most followed Twitter group for Recruiters so far. It's a cool way to stay in touch with the community all in one place.

I'm really interested though in keeping in touch with a particular community that you recruit within... I've made a bunch myself of industry groups. Like if you recruit in IT, I made a Twitter list for CIOs. There are so many uses for these new lists, it's fun to think about.

Hi Barbara,

Thanks for posting the link to my list! http://twitter.com/braingain/sourcers (and thanks to Maureen for posting it on her site)

This is pretty much everybody who says "sourcer" or "sourcing" in their bio. I created the list using a Google search.

Really cool! After I realized you had already made the list, I figured, well, hmmm! Let's go make a video about Twitter lists and Internet recruiting.

Recruiters, Twitter lists and Internet recruiting… Oh My!

has that amazing masterpiece (I was pulled kicking and screaming into making videos...and now seem to make videos about everything. :) ).

Enjoy,

Barbara

That's a great use of Twitter lists! It was what I was thinking when I first was musing on the benefits of Twitter lists for recruiters.
