I am constantly asked, just how do you find social media jobs? And there is a method to the madness. First and foremost, you need to make sure this is what you want to do, and if you have the tools to do the job. For the most part to do a social media job at the basic level, all you really need is an iphone (because you might be sent attachments with ad campaigns that will require you to have a iphone) or computer with microsoft office programs. I have found that alot of companies want a fair amount of marketing to be done from their social media managers, so I would highly recommend having a fax machine and scanner.
Here are some sites and ways to search for Social Media jobs.
Craigslist: Yes I know all the bad hype with this site, but honestly it has been the best site when I have done my searches, I have gotten two legit jobs off this site. When searching on craigslist, I would suggest you searching in major cities, and put in the search bar " paid social media" now you will get some internships that will pop up, but you will learn to weed through them.
Indeed.com: Same concept here, just put in the search bar, Paid social media.
Mashable Job Board: This is a very good site, it shows mostly social media, internet jobs only.
Other tips: Follow social media sites on Twitter and Facebook, get on major business's websites and see if they have any opening in social media.
