Why Social Networking Has Never Been More Relevant For Job Hunters

Friday, June 18th, 2010

It is certainly not difficult to understand why social media and social networking websites have exploded in popularity in recent years. They capitalize on the intrinsic human need to interact with the reaction of other people earn. Blogs, forums and other online communities allow us to share ideas with people around the world in real time and offer almost all the dynamics of human interaction. Millions of people have created profiles on social networking sites and images and videos uploaded to social media sites. As more people gain broadband access to the Internet, this trend should continue with no end in sight. As these sites create opportunities for people to find work? Here are some ways, but do this:
? Connections, Connections, Connections – If you are looking for the possibility of a university-level employment in a senior management position, the importance of having a connection that will help draw attention (and get an interview) can not be overestimated . Many people belong to different networks online community and letting them know that you are looking for a new job allows you to leverage the vast network of other networks as well.
? The site workplaces and communities – to work harder and online message boards to meet a very narrow range of interests that allows job seekers to bypass large, large as http://Monster sites. com where you can be your plan of study neglected. For example, if you have very specialized skills, such as underwater welding or forensic accounting, it is likely that there are job boards online where you can draw attention to respond to these fields.
? Recruiters and human resource managers also use the Web-savvy! – This is a very significant statistic for the relevance of social networks for job seekers: According to a 2006 study by the Society for Human Resource Management, recruiters use social networking sites 23 percent more what he did in 2006, to review the curriculum, screen candidates and fill vacancies.
? Reputation Management – The sites of social media can be an advantage or a poison. Because recruiters and hiring managers are browsing social networking sites to gather information on the recruitment potential jobseekers should be aware of additional unflattering photos and information on their pages that could affect their chances of being hired. The images are engaging in illegal activities or people who criticize the fact that the former employer could turn against them.
The Internet has changed significantly as people try to work and how potential employers find skilled workers. Harnessing the power of social networking sites has become almost essential for job seekers, but must be careful how they might be perceived. Just as the community where you live, the connections have an important role in the speed and ease with which you can find a new position. However, like a conversation, you should pay particular attention to what type of image you are projecting online.

Social networking research on the open road

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter can be striking headlines and are really the “thing” when it comes to keeping up with the daily lives of friends and celebrities. But the value of social networking as a marketing tool for many companies remains a mystery. If you believe that some of the biggest fans of the blogosphere is car company should be compared without your personal blog or Twitter to keep the world from their latest ideas, products or services. But is investment, particularly in terms of time and effort paid off in terms of sales or visits to the site of blogger? In order to try to shine some ‘light on the question I recently created a small experiment to test the effectiveness of blogs and twitters as marketing tools. It is certainly not the most scientific of tests, but noted some interesting trends. Those who know me say I am a kind of fan when it comes to bikes and racing bikes in particular. For months I had planned to travel for the Motorcycle Grand Prix at Le Mans and has decided to provide real-time updates of the trip by bicycle from my phone is on a blog and Twitter, and verify the marketing of relevant traffic to a site that provides another MotoGP bike tour. So I asked some friends and contacts, email, to approach their extended networks to lure users to the two communication channels to watch the progress of the five-day trip. To ensure a fair result, both the blog and Twitter accounts used were new, so there was more traffic on the historic events forum. In addition to blogs and Twitter, also posted updates on my Facebook page exists, is primarily used to provide a benchmark for social media, Facebook is for friends who already know me and I knew Twitter earlier. On my return I looked at where the majority of referrals came from the new blog and search results yielded some interesting results. Pour through statistics showed how a well constructed blog is important, in particular, Google has been reviewing the blog several times a day, we learned that on the list of search results as soon as it started. However, first things first, I am desperate to find some other friends who are interested in motion! The levels of interest from friends on Facebook has just beaten the aliens on Twitter! More importantly, during the five days the blog has become more than a thousand views, including Twitter and Facebook combined accounted for 29% of this traffic (Facebook and Twitter 15% 14%). Surprisingly engines search generated more than double the number of visitors, for a total of 64%. 20% of these visitors were interested enough to go on a commercial blog site to see the tour on others for the future. Although the results of this simple test are inconclusive, some interesting trends seem to emerge, especially for anyone thinking of using social networking as a tool to generate business. First, both Twitter and Facebook would be good for companies that operate in an environment aimed at consumers, but only if they have something interesting to say! However, in a business to business (B2B) situation, the benefits are not so clear. First, many entrepreneurs are too busy with their work every day to keep Twitters and blogs. Similarly, the pace of change and have something interesting to say often becomes an obstacle to the creation of contents for your blog or Twitters, or to regularly update their Facebook pages. Moreover, a recent study published by a team of Harvard University showed that only 10% of Twitter users generate more than 90% of site content that Twitter is still the preserve of a few dedicated, despite propaganda surrounding it. The results of my research shows that while social media is an important contribution to attracting visitors, search engines remain the leading provider of blog visitors. The fact that 20% of the traffic migrated from the blog, which was not an aggressive sales pitch of the device, a commercial site, will enhance the usefulness of a blog can be commercial sites, especially if the subject contains regularly updated news and information. This not only helps the bloggers to emerge as a kind of guru in their particular field, but more importantly to increase traffic to your website and search engine rankings. In general, the Internet can, living a kind of social revolution, but when it comes to marketing online, any technique should be used in isolation, but optimization of the major search engines is the king!
