There are many jobs available out there for people knowledgeable about Social Media, but sometimes finding the job isn't easy.
Don't worry! Each week (when I have time) I will be featuring 3-5 jobs currently available as of Monday. Additional sites will be linked at the very bottom of the article and listed as sources. Other sites may be listed as well.
I do apologize that this post is coming out way late on Monday, but because it's late I'll be promoting it a few more times on Twitter and other social media outlets. I won't go into details, but health came first. That being said, here's some jobs for you.
