I just reviewed Chris Brogan’s smart e-book – how to use the social Web to get a job and it inspired me to think about hiring.
Last spring I wrote a post about hiring a twit to get your Internet Marketing program in order for your tourism business.
The Winter holidays might be a good time to start thinking about how you can re-craft your job application form to include some of the categories in these two documents.
Hiring in the tourism sector is going to get very competitive in 2009 as your organization gets into competition with others in tourism looking to hire the best and brightest. With an eye to enhancing your business by recruiting someone with a strong Web 2.0 profile (aka – the social Web) make hiring Twits a priority.
And make sure you give your twits an opportunity to expose your business to new opportunities on the social Web by giving them time each day to document your business with video, audio, photos and text and promote your biz on your social outposts all over the Web…
After all, if you had a chance to work for one of two tourism businesses: one that was Web savvy and one that wasn’t; and you were a twit, which job would you take?
