Crowdsource Me
Like so many people around the country right now, I’m about to be unemployed. Knowing there is a lot of competition for every single job posting that goes up, I need an edge - and I’m hoping you will help me!
I’m a huge fan of Twitter and they currently have a job open that fits me like a glove (Product Manager). I’ve sent my app in but I want your help with improving my chances of getting an interview. My plan? Simple. Get as many people as I can to tweet @twitter a message about interviewing me! Who knows, with a little luck, maybe we can generate enough noise to get some attention.
I’m certainly not expecting anyone to recommend someone they know nothing about. To help that out a little I have posted a copy of the cover letter and resume that I submitted to Twitter.
Are you in? Simply tweet out this message and lets see what happens!
@twitter Please interview @crispylettuce for your Product Manager position. We love him like we love Harry Potter!
What’s with the line about Harry Potter? Well, I’m no Oprah. I don’t have millions of followers. I think the only way I can climb above the chatter is to hijack a trending topic. Hopefully this message will get mixed in to the Harry Potter feed and more people will pick it up. It certainly can’t hurt
Thanks in advance if you decided to participate! I will of course post updates as to what happens.
