As brands steadily move into social media and online PR Facebook and Twitter et al are no longer dirty words in the office.
But it's applicants who are
missing a trick. A random CV sample by digital recruitment firm Major Players has found that social media mentions are missing in the majority of applications.
The survey sampled 4,500 CVs over the last two
years. Only 6% referenced social media, 9% mentioned Twitter, a tiny 2%
talked about blogging and only 13%
included Facebook (often only highlighted in the interests section).
