Since I just did a post on Osborn & Barr why not another one. I learned on a phone call with the company this week that they’ve acquired a social media company, Elasticity, which is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the agency. They’re looking for a summer intern for the new division too.
Key Responsibilities:
Update, promote and publicize social networking sites for clients;
Develop and participate in blogs;
Manage content and increase supporter numbers on social networking properties such as Digg, Twitter, Facebook, FriendFeed, YouTube, Second Life, Care2, MySpace, Wikipedia, external blogs and more;
Online and database research and reporting responsibilities;
Adapting appearance of social networking presences to be more visually appealing;
Communicating with members and supporters of social sites and networks by using frequent bulletins and messages;
Researching and assisting in the creation of new applications;
Identifying new opportunities for engagement in social networking spaces.
These sound like the responsibilities every company needs to have in their staff.
