Follow potential Hiring managers

idea posted by Ashwin Reddy PM, Infosys

Everybody gets a boost to their ego if people wish to follow them. Following on Twitter will start a relationship. Nurturing the relationship after you start following is very simple. Just reply to posts, retweet what you find interesting

Before contacting a recruiter via Twitter, check out:

• Their bio
• Follower/Following ratio (Have they been around a while? Do they follow people back?)
• Click the link to their website
• Ask others in your network whether or not the recruiter is a credible source
