Since its founding in the late 90s, social media has been a place for people to connect, learn, and network. That’s no exception for HR professionals and leaders. In fact, over the last several years, the HR community has become the #HRCommunity and we’ve seen the rise of niche HR sub-communities like #RecruiterTwitter. Through this connection, I think it’s safe to say many of us believe the social media has enhanced our HR careers (or HR-adjacent careers).
With that, as we close out a difficult year of pandemic, economic recession, the election, and racial justice protests, November’s #HRforAll Twitter chat will be themed: How Social Media Enhances HR Careers.
See the questions for our November 10th at 1pm EST Twitter chat below.

- Has social media impacted your voices of influence? If so, how?
- How have you been using social media to connect with others?
- What tips would you offer to HR students or newbies on how to connect with others?
The Rules of a Twitter Chat
A Twitter chat is a LIVE chat that takes place on Twitter. People “gather” at a certain day and time to talk about a certain topic. There is usually one or two people who moderate or host the chat, who post questions to guide the conversation.
Questions are all marked with a Q and labeled with numbers to help everyone keep track of the flow of the conversation. People responding to questions should mark their answers with an A and the corresponding number.
For example, the moderators/ hosts will post “Q1” and everyone will answer with tweets marked “A1.”Additionally, all Tweets – both questions and answers – will use the hashtag #HRforAll. That’s how we’ll all stay connected on Twitter during the chat.
