Get specific. Your first step in cultivating a personal job feed is to get clear on the exact terms that best match the jobs you want. If you cast too wide a net, you'll receive too many results that waste your time and energy.
- Locate / Save the RSS feeds for the searches you find. These are provided on most job board or websites.
- Get yourself a twitterfeed account (AND a different twitter account).
