Twitter hashtag chats are a great way to get people talking about different topics, and there are great examples out there (#sachat and #jobhuntchat come to mind) that have brought people together to talk about professional development and job searching.

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be helping to moderate a new Twitter chat, devoted exclusively to job search issues in Student Affairs, with “Sarah Searcher” (not her real name) from TheSASearch.Tumblr.Com. “Sarah,” who has until recently been job-searching herself, created the blog as a place where candidates could share their experiences, perspectives and advice about the Student Affairs job search.

We crossed paths on Twitter, and I sent her a message a while back asking if she’d be interested in getting this chat going. So we will be having our first one this week, and  weekly after that, on Wednesdays from 11:30.-12:30 Eastern time!

How to join in the fun? Log on to Twitter or use a program like TweetGrid or TweetChat to  search for the hashtag #sasearch. We’ll post questions, listed as “Q1, Q2, Q3, etc.” Write in and join the conversation. Afterwards, visit TheSASearch or this site for transcripts.

Please join us!
