By using adlogic, clients can create custom job feeds and corresponding specialised Twitter profiles for each area that they recruit for. 1 . Create a Twitter profile (make sure you notify adlogic with your login details) 2 . Log into the adlogic system 3 . Create a new job Page Webinar - Using Twitter for Recruitment
