Job hunting on Twitter? Yes, it’s possible! by Elon Musk’s X

It seems X is gearing up to go toe-to-toe with established job-search portals like LinkedIn and Naukri.com. Soon, you might be able to scour for job postings right on the platform. A while back, there were whispers that verified organisations could list job openings on the site, with the capacity to showcase up to five roles at a time. 

The recent chatter from an IANS report suggests that Twitter users will soon have a job-search feature at their disposal, making job hunting just a click away! 

Adding weight to this, X Daily, a Twitter news account, revealed that the handle XHiring has begun posting job listings. However, these listings are currently limited to web users based in the US. 

When queried about how users would know who’s hiring, Chris Bakke, the former CEO of job-matching platform Laskie that Twitter bought in May, stated, “Job search, but more importantly– matchmaking to qualified opportunities — both coming soon.”

Thus, in the upcoming weeks, they will be exploring ‘alternative routes to meet these goals’.  tickets. Intriguingly, Musk is morphing Twitter, formerly known as a micro-blogging site, into this all-encompassing ‘X’. Excitingly, the latest chatter hints that you could soon be using this revamped platform for job hunting!
