While going about my daily search for great entry-level jobs to write about, I came across a Facebook Flyer ad for YardBarker's entry-level jobs. I was impressed that they were using Facebook as a recruitment medium (employers really aren't taking advantage of this yet), but I think that YardBarker swung and missed on this one. With a few alterations to their ad, they could have come across as a lot more impressive as an employer for new college grads and hit a home run. It really seemed like they wanted to make an ad that people wouldn't click. Is 17 cents too much to pay for a great entry-level candidate?

I just sent information to my friends who are at the University level to E & Y's Career Facebook page. They offer information on internships, career advice, and career opportunities. The page was colorful and informative. It appealed to me and I am not an accountant. Branding ones company in an informative, hip way, will appeal to the new generation of job seekers.
