Social Media jobs continue to heat up, see this video piece on CNN.
The hires in the social business space continue to heat up, in fact the market research data (read the report) shows that hiring is the top spend in 2011. Expect there to be more hires over coming quarters.
Both the submissions on this job announcement board, as well as available social media positions at corporations continue to pour in.
In this continued digest of job changes, I like to salute those that continue to join the industry in roles focused on social media, see the archives, which I’ve been tracking since Q4, 2007.

A great post reminding us all that there is a viable (and strategic) place for social media. We need to continue to train future social media analysts, developers, and leaders. Our company exists to come alongside entrepreneurs and help resource them with professional teams, time-tested tools and a ‘sandbox’ marketplace to find exposure for their products and services. Thanks again, Jeremiah!
Thanks for the shout-out; I wanted to let you know that the Reddit link goes to my Janrain announcement…may want to update that.
