BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gozaik, the pioneer of social recruiting solutions, today released data from its Social Recruiting Index, which uncovered a growing trend in businesses flocking to Twitter to uncover and engage with top talent. The Index was compiled using Gozaik’s proprietary analytics methodology, which collects real-time insights amid the more than 15 jobs posted on Twitter a minute.
Gozaik is positioned to help monetize an entirely new market for Twitter by enticing and facilitating new users to join and by providing new revenue opportunities through their proprietary talent engagement offerings.

Highlights include:
- More than 500,000 social job announcements are released on Twitter each month
- More than 15 new jobs are posted on Twitter a minute
- The average number of jobs on Twitter has grown by nearly 32 percent in just six months

“I feel we are often looking in the wrong place to get an accurate portrayal of the job market. In fact, they are creating a perception that it is worse than it actually is,” said Joe Budzienski, co-founder of Gozaik. “Millions of enterprises are demonstrating that they are still hiring, but are opting to recruit on Twitter as it is cost effective. In addition, businesses leveraging Gozaik are realizing the benefits of more targeted tweets, which garner more results.”
