Facebook Launches A Job Search Tool

Just about everyone is using Facebook for personal networking, but you can use it for professional networking, as well.

With lots of job search applications to choose from, Facebook is becoming more than a social networking site.

These Facebook applications can all be used as part of your job search.

Facebook launched a new job board the Social Jobs Partnership app pulls in jobs from branch out direct employer association, job for labs and monster.com.

1.7 million jobs have been listed so far and you can apply without leaving the site. We are in an age where more employers use social media to recruit. Facebook says that half of the US employers are using the network during the hiring process.

It is only a matter of time that Facebook finds a way to monetize these job listings. And what about Linkedin?  Facebook is  certainly shaking things up but Linkedin is still more established and trusted as a tool for recruiters.
