Week 5 EOC: Social Networks and Job Hunting

"These programs employ everyday consumers who are passionate about their products to act as part PR agents, part sales reps, and part evangelists."Employing customers, lifetime customers, people who love the food or love the product. People paid to promote a product are Brand Ambassadors. "A labor of love more than a paying job." So rather then them having a real job the get paid to eat something they enjoy eating, or wearing clothing products they have always worn. To most people this would probably be the easiest/ funnest job on the planet and I'm sure if you could apply to be one, most people would.


"Facebook hires account for less than 1% of the total hires companies are making, according to Jobs2Web, which helps companies track the sources of candidates and hires." It seems as though you can click on ads posted on Facebook to apply for a job, which seems simple enough. Though, from experience I know this to not be as easy as it sounds. First the work from home jobs are almost always scams. Cause you never receive the kit you pay for. Also half the time when you apply to the jobs they have, once you give your phone number you get non-stop calls asking if you are interested in continuing your education. Though, every job that messages you seems to only point you in the direction of you "modeling" for some BS company. Or even you promoting some crapy energy drink.. So it seems to me that Facebook is probably not the way to go to look for a job.
