Test your Social Media Skills

 

UPDATE 07/2023: Smarterer was acquired by Pluralsight, a technology skills platform, in November 2014. Post-acquisition, the Smarterer assessment technology was integrated into Pluralsight’s platform to enhance their skills measurement and benchmarking capabilities.

Social Media is one of the hottest ways to earn a living from home. Most of us are so active on social networking sites that we think we should automatically qualify for the position with many companies! But you should first learn your true social media skills. See how well you know about Google Search, Pinterest,  and Facebook using Smarterer.

Smarterer offers users a free, fast and fun way to validate their digital, social, and technical skills with short quizzes in over 600 topics.
