About.com recently announced the winners to their popular 2013 Readers’ Choice Awards in the Careers Space and TweetMyJobs came out on top!
TweetMyJobs took home the 2013 Readers’ Choice Award for Best Mobile App for Job Searching.
Our app takes advantage of the power of location based services – using the GPS on your phone to let you view jobs nearby on a map as well as taking advantage of the phone’s camera to explore work opportunities through our augmented reality overlay – pictured above.
We’re proud of our work in mobile – and we know it’s not just the future in the recruiting industry, but also the present. In fact, there are about 5.1 billion cell phones on the planet, but only 4.2 billion toothbrushes, according to the Mobile Marketing Association, so if you’re thinking about how mobile can affect your business, and your talent acquisition strategy, then you’re doing the right thing.
If you haven’t checked out the TweetMyJobs app on your iPhone, iPad or Android device, make sure to download it today- it’s free.
And if you want to learn more about what we’re doing in the social and mobile recruiting space, feel free to contact us.

We live in a social world, but we also live in a mobile world. iPhones. iPads. Instagram. People are interacting with the world around them – through maps, photography, instant communication, and more. So why shouldn’t the job search and discovery process be mobile as well? It should be. And it needs to be more efficient.
View nearby jobs through the map feature.
That’s why we just released a new TweetMyJobs mobile app - turning your iPhone or iPod Touch into the ultimate job-searching tool.
The application allows job seekers to search by role, industry and location and view jobs nearby on a map or using an augmented reality overlay.
At once, the TweetMyJobs app is powerful for businesses and seekers alike. For businesses, it enables job distribution and branding in the palm of a job seeker’s hand. Walking down the street or in a crowded mall? No problem – there are jobs around you. For job seekers, the ability to find work in their immediate area and apply via a mobile device is a no-brainer. Seekers can also receive job alerts, where they want them, when they want them. And, of course, the app is free.
For businesses, large and small, the ability to generate “foot traffic,” and local candidates – whether you’re looking to hire a barista or cashier, accountant or nurse, business analyst or CFO – is a superb advantage over competitors that aren’t distributing their jobs and their brand into the mobile world.
Potential employees and employers can now use their mobile devices to find the right job match. Don’t be left behind.
