Gender Pay Gap, Who is Hiring, and Use This Instagram Feature

Gender Pay Gap, Who is Hiring, and Use This Instagram Feature

Short ditties on gender pay gap, and why you should use Instagram Stories to stand out to employers instead of Snapchat! All below for your consumption!


The US has one of the worst gender pay gap among the world’s wealthy countries! From QZ.com 

“It shows that women are increasingly pursuing tertiary education—that is, community college, bachelor’s degree, master’s, or doctoral degrees. In 2014, 58% of graduates from their first institution of post-high-school education in the US were women.”


Looking for a New Job? Yodle is Hiring 70-100 Salespeople—Every Month From TheMuse.com

” Yodle, an all-in-one marketing platform for local businesses with offices in Austin, Charlotte, Scottsdale, and more, offers both the stellar opportunities and awesome culture you’re looking for. Best of all, the company is hiring 70 to 100 new salespeople per month—so if you want the job, you’ve definitely got a shot.”


A few weeks ago, I wrote an article for Recruiter.com, “5 Reasons Job Seekers Should Use Instagram Stories.” I didn’t find out until recently it was picked up by Fox Business!

In the article, I basically advocated for the use of Instagram Stories (Instagram latest feature) to stand out to employers rather than using Snapchat. I cited a few reasons for using this new feature:

  1. People who use Instagram have an audience already
  2. It’s much easier to use and understand
  3. You can measure results, followers, and engagement. Snapchat does not have data available to users

Another reason I didn’t mention in the article is Instagram has third party apps useful to integrate to Instagram Stories. If you use Instagram, the new feature is at the top left of your page as “New!”

I am trying to survey new features on different social media platforms for you to see if it would be viable for a job seeker to use to get his or her message to an employer. If there are technology tools you run across you want me to check out to see if it’s job seeker friendly, comment below or send me an email at mark {at} thevoiceofjobseekers [dot] com! Jobs are essential, your life is everything! Take control of your life by designing your career trajectory. Own it!
