SNAPCHAT
The next frontier of job hunting
How often to post Add to your story up to five times a day.
What to post “Share snapshots of workday and creative projects or career-related photos that inspire you,” says Larssen. It’s OK to show your Gymbox goals, but send the ‘I’m at Glastonbury!’ Snaps to private-friend groups only, advises Workology’s Miller-Merrell.
Who to follow You might need to do external research to find people and businesses on Snapchat, but it could
seriously pay off: last spring, financial firm JPMorgan Chase used a graduationthemed geofilter as part of a recruiting campaign aimed at students.
How to comment As on other platforms, you can Chat a question or compliment in response to someone’s Snap. But, even though your comments will disappear right after they’re viewed, don’t send anything you wouldn’t want to be permanent, says Miller-Merrell. Never forget: Snapchat lets users screenshot everything. Next-level action Use the direct-message Chat feature to send a 10-second video or voice recording to hirers.
