A team of developers at the Google-supported Campus in East London’s Tech City has launched a fully integrated Twitter job board, CareerFollow.

CareerFollow showcases thousands of jobs through over 600 different ‘job streams’.

Co-founder Joe O Donovan says: “CareerFollow works in a way that's familiar to anyone who has used a traditional job board such as Jobsite or Monster… [but] the big difference between us and traditional job boards is the speed at which you can spot a great career opportunity and pounce on it, simply by tweeting the employer.”

CareerFollow is also due to launch iPhone and Android apps over the coming months.
