Generation Z is taking advantage of the rapid evolution in communication technology to do more than just interact.

TikTok has become known for its trendsetting content that is shared with millions.

Major companies and small businesses are using platforms like TikTok to offer career opportunities in addition to marketing.

Social media is being used to grow businesses, share content, and get a job.

As Gen Z adults begin to enter the workforce world, studies suggest they come to TikTok for job search advice

Taylor Desseyn, Practice Leader for Global Solutions Technology at Vaco consulting agency in Nashville, said he uses TikTok to educate the adults of Gen Z. It's frightening to find a job. It's possible to feel alone. Desseyn said you don't know if you're doing it correctly. No one is teaching us how to do it correctly.

Desseyn said that it was possible to reach the mass of people.

I am beginning to preach to college students. Desseyn didn't know how to find a job after college. I help people level up in their careers. I don't take it for granted.

Desseyn compared the Linkedin and TikTok platforms and explained how they work in the same way.

It's up to you to put yourself out there. Desseyn said that the best way to promote yourself is through social media. I didn't know how powerful Linkedin was. It's the business version of TikTok. When it comes to being discovered and reaching the mass, is it that powerful?

According to whatstrending.com, many recruiters noticed a shift away from traditional employment sites.

Although TikTok is a new way to apply for jobs, there are some drawbacks to consider if you want to make a video resume.

Standard resume don't include bias in the recruiting process, butVideos can. You need to have a professional profile photo and video on your TikTok account if you want to be considered for a job.

According to whatstrending.com, TikTok will follow in the footsteps of LinkedIn and make the "TikTok resume" the best way to get your application to the top of an employer's list.
