Most effective is contacting people directly, as over 50% of jobs are found through networking. Employers increasingly use social media to research applicants, so job seekers should use networks like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter to advertise their skills and make employers notice them in non-traditional ways.

    Job recruiters and decision makers are increasingly using online social networking
    sites to gather information about job applicants, according to a mid-2011 Jobvite
    survey of 800 employers in the US. Likewise, job seekers are beginning to use social
    networking sites to advertise their skills and post resumes. Today, job seekers can
    use resources such as Google+’s Circles, Facebook’s BranchOut, LinkedIn’s
    InMaps, and Twitter’s Lists to make employers notice them in a unique way.[4] In
    2014, using these social media networks has led to 1 of 6 job seekers finding
    employment.
