Aside from this list, a good way to find jobs on Twitter is to connect with the leaders in your fields of interest. Use Twitter's search function to look for people and introduce yourself. By building these relationships now, you may have an open door in the future to ask for help when looking for jobs. I have often seen personal requests tweeted asking for help for a friend's job search.
