One of the exciting and highly effective aspects of social media networks is the ability to connect with others who might be interested in you, either as a prospective employee or as a networking contact. Either outcome is valuable during a job search. Further, being “visible” in the social media will elevate your visibility, thereby exposing you to more people directly and indirectly through their networks. It just grows and expands!
We help you with this by developing a Social Media Profile. This is a document that provides short blurb-type Search Engine Optimized sentences or bullets that can be pasted directly into profiles on LinkedIn, FaceBook, Twitter and any other social media websites. This saves you lots of time, prevents errors in key stroking redundant entries, and gets your name out there quickly.
Using SEO techniques ensures that your profile information will be picked up in the search function of LinkedIn where recruiters, HRs and executives go to search for candidates. In today’s economic arena, companies are using alternative methods to mine resumes to find candidates. The recruiter market is down considerably, so companies and hiring managers are using LinkedIn and other social media platforms.
After developing the Social media Profile, we teach our clients with a “How To” DVD and 1 on1 sessions on how to most effectively use the various Social Media websites to get their search underway and to elevate their visibility quickly.
We believe that becoming highly visible in the Social Media sites is essential in today’s market and we are pleased to offer this service as part of our standard Personal Marketing Toolbox for all of our clients.
