Social Media Specialists

Companies have a tough time filling Social Media Specialist jobs for one big reason–an awful lot of people interested in snatching up social media job opportunities pass themselves off as experts or specialists… when in reality, they’re not. Part of the trouble is that social media hasn’t really been around long enough for the definite lines to be drawn. What some view as social marketing jobs, others view as pieces of the overall puzzle. If you want to maximize your chances at being hired for a Social Media Specialist role, however, there are a few things you have to be able to prove. First of all, your understanding of social media platforms has to be keen. Forget having just a passing understanding of how Twitter and Facebook work–you’ve got to be able to display proficiency at both. But it doesn’t stop there. A real social media expert is someone who can analyze metrics pulled from the various analytical sources and translate them into directives for taking action.
