Keeping the public notified of the best recruiters active in social media is a time-honoured tradition in the Recruitosphere. So, here's my list for the Top 50 Twitter accounts in Recruiting Social Media for July 2013.
Why is this list different from all other lists? Well, these people are not the career coaches and consultants you see on every other list. And they are not the superstars who fly from HR conference to HR conference giving eachother air kisses. No, these people are in the trenches. These people are all hard-working recruiters.
And, if you follow them, you will get the feel of the business from ordinary women and men. So, congratulations, all. And, hey, all you losers - better luck next time.

1. This list is supposed to include only ordinary working recruiters who use Twitter. No social media superstars like Shally, for instance, are here.
2. I used my followers as my talent pool - but I have over 12,000 followers so I think that's fair.
At the same time, this is -- deliberately -- not a list of my friends. I think that before publication I tweeted with Mitch and two other people on the list.
3. I tried to exclude anyone who had a private account. If I've missed someone and you can't see her tweets, please let me know.
I also didn't intend to include anyone who has only a few tweets. If you see that in managing a large number of names I've erroneously included some who should have been discarded, please let me know.
4. This list is for July 2013. Not all time.
