Jobs Require Skills In Social Networking

Today, our economy hasn't performed at its best. The econonmy has been so bad that some people cannot find jobs, which is very frustrating. The New York Times published an article about the fact that employers require employees to have skills in social networking, such as Facebook and Twitter. The article explains how Eileen McMaster shut down her fashion line but later found that she remained jobless and did not have any experience with social networking. When she went back to school she learned that many people were taught and required to update their timelines on Facebook and tweet on Twitter. She says that back when she was in school, none of this was required but now it is. This means that the workforce requires young graduates like ourselves more and more experience with computer technology and social media.
