JobAdviceSA (@JobAdviceSA)
While we may be most prolific on Wednesdays, JobAdviceSA has certainly got the Monday slot locked down. Their #JobAdviceSA initiative operates on Monday afternoons at 4pm where they pose 4 questions. These questions are generally suggested by fellow jobseekers and they invite everyone to partake in answering. This is a great way to learn the tips, tricks and trade secrets needed to secure you your next job.

Young Entreprenuer (@YoungEnt)
You don’t need to start your own business to be an entrepreneur in our opinion. Entrepreneurial characteristics are very attractive to potential employers and will certainly help your cause when going to job interviews. You can be an entrepreneur within a company. Spotting opportunities for your employers is a great way to rise through the ranks quickly. Young Entrepreneur post articles which helps nurture the entrepreneur inside us all, and career progression can be the only result.
