  I doubt it. But it's a great way to find out about opportunities. I've had 3 jobs that I only heard about because somebody mentioned it on some social medium. One was on Twitter, one Facebook, and one in a specialist Slack.

  I found a tech evangelist job via an informational account I ran for a language community, and was hired in part because of it. I suppose that’s PR, although I eventually switched to engineering.
