How to find a job on Facebook on your mobile

I created a video last week about how to go about finding a job on Facebook on your PC. I created a video on my Facebook page a while ago on how to go about finding a job on Facebook using your mobile. Since I recorded this video, many of the largerGalway based companies have started to list their jobs there too. Please share if you found it useful!
