Need a Job? How about Social Media?
Social Media and Social Networking are all the buzz. The job market may look bleak in some corners of the world, but for Social Media, not so much.
A search this morning of Dice.com turned up over 234 job postings relating to Social Media. How about a job as a Business Analyst - Social Media? Or what about working as a Strategic social media marketing expert? And, if you're in the IT business already but focused more on hardware or networks, why don't you look at other options in a computer-related career?
At over 732 related job postings, Monster has the monster list - including a Social Media Specialist for an online education/curriculum company or a job as a Social Media Manager for a major technology company. Hotjobs had over 179 Social Media job postings. While, Careerbuilder boasts 390 such job listings. SimplyHired is another great place to search for jobs, since it links to job postings from a variety of locations on the web, including the ones I've just mentioned.
Here's a pretty good blog post on certain key jobs in the Social Media realm. However, the field is so new that I couldn't get good data for you on expected pay/current salary ranges. My guess would be that employers are flying by the seat of their pants in this area. If you can sell yourself and you know you stuff, I would expect you to make a pretty penny! Don't quote me on that though, times are tough, just go get a job.
Jobs are posted all over the country from Raleigh to Boston to Silcon Valley to Iowa! Need a job? Maybe you should consider switching careers!
BTW - Social Media or social media? What's your take? Did I mention I need a good editor?
