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.
This post is a wee bit late as I had an unexpected trip out of town which involved panicked getting ready to go Sunday night (which is when I usually write this) and 10+ hours of driving. Needless to say, I was exhausted when I got to my hotel so the posts were not ready to go. Double dosing posts today.
Here are this week's job listings I found interesting:
