Josh, Nice podcast. You mentioned that searching by “hiring near:” is better than “jobs near:”. However, if you use the #jobs hashtag, you’ll get the most complete and targeted list. Just about every board/company is using #jobs. Therefore, you should use:

Gary, Great point. the #jobs hashtag is very much in adoption. And you’ll get a different list than the keyword “hiring”, though there’ll be overlap. It’s good to experiment. Though I’ve found that not everyone posting jobs knows how to use hashtags. The solution: check out Gary’s TweetMyJobs.com website :)
