If you haven’t joined facebook you’re probably one of these people that like to let everyone know they hate it. Apart from chatting with friends about absolute b*llocks and poking each other, facebook has some good uses.

One I’ve found is finding potential recruits. Here’s how:

Click on a facebook profile (any it doesn’t matter) - find one that has some interests listed. It doesn’t matter what the interests are, it could be ‘dancing’, ’sleeping’ or whatever.

You’ll see that the interests are actually hyperlinks. Click on one (doesn’t matter what it is).

Now look at your URL. You’ll see:

http://www.facebook.com/s.php?adv&k=100000010&n=-1&in=Sleeping&o=4

Where it says sleeping replace with the interest of your choice, that compliments the job you want to fill.

If you’re looking for an SEO, type SEO.

If you’re looking for an affiliate marketer, type AFFILIATE.

If you’re looking for a designer, type DESIGN.

If you’re looking for a footballer, type FOOTBALL.

This will then make a search of all the people in your network (your area) interested in SEO or whatever you put in. A list of potential candidates. You can see if they’re pretty enough, see where they work currently, see anything you need to see, before wasting time contacting them for an interview.

So if you’re recruiting try that.
