As social marketing continues to evolve, clients continue to ensure it has a place firmly within their marketing plans. Is it within a direct response acquisition channel, complimenting SEO strategy in an organic environment or does it fall within engagement, branding and ultimately PR? Clients and agencies are split, largely depending on its purpose, but they are all agreed that it is now more than just buying ads on Facebook but an integrated strategy across the emerging range of social platforms.

Employment opportunities in social media vary greatly, from blogging to social strategy and customer engagement. Our range of clients require both entry level and experienced applicants so if you're looking for a change of job, we can help you find a position to suit your level of knowledge and experience. We have successfully placed candidates in roles such as Social Media Analyst, Social Media Specialis, Content Writer, Social Media Coordinator and Digital/Online Marketing Manager. 

The type of skills needed for social media roles vary depending on the element sought but copywriting and creativity is high on the scale of requirements. However, if you know your "likes" from your "endorsements" and your "+1's" from your "favourites" then you're probably halfway there! Good preparation for candidates is to research the wealth of social activity examples that exist and look at the impressive case studies which cover a range of both stand-alone social strategies to integrated masterpieces.
