Every day social networks introduce new features; these features can be used in order to achieve professional purposes. Some of these features which promote searching for scholarships and jobs are the ability to search inside the social networks and joining groups. A main objective of this study was to empirically investigate the way online users use their social networks for the purpose of searching for scholarships and jobs. The data were collected to explore users’ current usage. The study was conducted by focusing on Erasmus students at Vilnius University, Lithuania. A web questionnaire was shared in Erasmus active Facebook groups. The answer to the web questionnaire of (53) respondents was randomly received. The methodology used the quantitative approach, descriptive statistics using the program SPSS version 19. Findings indicated that although many online users have already joined groups and followed pages concerning scholarships and jobs in their social networks, their usage is very limited for professional purposes namely scholarship and job search.
