What kind of professional experience is recommended to qualify for a position in Social Media?

I have heard from many sources that you need to be well integrated in different social networks, and be familiar with blogging, etc.., but on a resume, what types of positions and past experiences are employers looking for?

I took several Marketing classes in college, and have some part time experience in Marketing, but all my full time positions have been in other fields (sales, technology). Marketing is my passion and Social Media is something I am very interested and I very much want to pursue.

Any suggestions to help teach myself and better present myself as a qualified candidate?

I'd have to say managing some different newsgroups and communities over the years has been instructive.

I'm looking to shift from design to social media. I am having trouble with what to put on my resume as well. Also there seems to be so many outlets to explore. What are the social media standards to know?
