Advertise Your Resume on Facebook

Need a creative way to advertise your resume to the world? How about buying an advertisement for yourself on the internet? That’s what Eric Barker did and he got a job offer! He only spent $50 on Facebook ads and Microsoft replied and gave him a job. This is just one of the ways to get your name out there. You can create a picture resume or you can start a blog resume.

You can start your own Facebook resume ad too. But you need a couple of things before you start. 

  • A good pitch

Create a good sales pitch and tagline to your resume ad. Make sure it’s targeted to your audience. Put your best skills on the ad without sounding too generic. Put the position you seek in the title and make sure your name is in the advertisement. 

  • A picture of yourself

Get a professional photo of yourself and make sure you’re smiling. Everyone loves a happy worker.

  • A landing page

After you have the pitch and photo ready, you need a place for people to land after they click on your ad. You can create a blog resume and have it land there. Or you can post your resume on a job site like Monster.com and link to that page.

Then finally go to http://www.facebook.com/advertising/ and get started. You set your daily budget. You can pay per each click of the advertisement or each time the ad gets an impression. Set it low to like 5 or 10 dollars a day. Most importantly, target the ad to the right audience and geographical location. Someone under 18 will likely not offer you the job of your dreams, so don’t target that demographic.
