.Earlier this week I wrote a piece on Social Media Do’s and Don’ts for assistants so I thought I would carry on with that theme and try to convince you all to join Twitter!
Twitter really is a great place for learning as well as being social. Here is a list of people, companies and professional associations that I think will add real value to your career development.
