Using social media effectively in the job search is a process that will happen over time, so I would recommend to all those senior executives to start using twitter and other platforms. For some it may not be twitter that helps them, it could be Facebook, LinkedIn, Xing or another service that pertains more to their specific niche. The over arcing concept is that they need to start networking again and prove their expertise online then take it offline.

Brand-Yourself.com is actually starting to work with this exact market of professionals in a job transition who want to learn how to use social media. We would love to connect with them if you would like to make an introduction, we would really appreciate it.

Hi Mark,
Thank you for sharing your story. Congratulations, and what a great job to have.
I am a big advocate of trying to teach people how to integrate social media into their search, but its not something that is coming easy. I am also meeting a lot of senior level executives who have lost their jobs and who are very skeptical about using Twitter. Do you have any additional advice for this particular group? Thank you for any further suggestions.

That's a great idea! You need to leverage social media in every way possible to get the most out of it. Content is king online and one of the best ways to be found online. Good luck!
