Using Google+ In the Job Search Process
This Presentation is based on the functionality of Google Plus as of July 2011!I will make the necessary revisions as Google+ grows and matures!
The Job Search Process needs to be balancedThere is no 1 way a person finds a job
My Job Search Philosophy The Job Search Process is both  a Social and Informative one Landing a Job Offer can be very difficult Getting the Job Offer can be time consuming Landing a job should be more than ensuring a paycheck
NETWORKS SOCIAL GRAPH ,[object Object]
Professional and/or personal
May never meet in personSOCIAL NETWORK ,[object Object]
Professional and/or personal
Usually involves an initial face-to-face meeting,[object Object]
Google Plus Profile Introduction Links Bragging Rights Occupation Employment Education
Google+ Profile -- Continued Places Lived Home:  How can people reach you @home Work:  How can people reach you @work Relationship:  Seeing anyone? Looking for Gender Other Names Nickname:   Search Visibility
The Job Seeker’s Profile As a Branding Tool As a Marketing Tool As a Digital Billboard As a Digital Business Card
Your Job Seeking Profile My Resume Makes me want to get to know you better and form a professional and or personal relationship
The Job Seeker’s Profile Introduction What is the 1st thing I should know about you? Bragging Rights What do I need to know to get to know you better? Links What would make me stray away from Google +
Google+ Profile -- Continued Occupation If you are not targeting a specific job title, indicate skill set or industry Employment Can include both current and past Education Home & Work Use discretion & privacy when making content information available!
Landing a Job Offer is not necessarily based on who you know, But, who knows about you!
Keeping Everything Separate Currently, the social networking platforms fall into 2 Networking categories Open Networks Like Twitter, unless you have a blocked account Closed Networks Like Facebook & LinkedIn, where you need to grant permission to join your network Many social networks fail to discriminate or disassociate the professional from the personal
Aligning all of your circles Your first step is to understand and to evaluate your connections Many of you have already done this Look at your social connections Then look at your other social network platforms Facebook Linkedin Twitter …etc
CIRCLES Allows you to group your connections any way you wish Currently only personal accounts can be “encircled” 1 connection can be included in more than 1 circle Google+ User must use their real name
Your Streams & Threads The Originator of the Thread As much of the tread as will fit The Date of the thread The number of replies to your thread
HOME A chronological listing of Content Much like the Facebook Wall Are able to +1 your circle(s)’s posts Muting a post Use with caution, prevents you from seeing updates to the post Links to this post Opens the thread in a separate tab/window
Digital Curation ,[object Object]
Be cognizant of “digital dirt”
Your posts should reflect the value you bring
TIP:  Avoid text only posts
Links and mediated content provide greater value,[object Object]
SPARKS Content Recommendations Based on the Google Search, Google+ and plus 1’s Any spark can be shared amongst your circle(s) or person(s) Content:  Links, photo’s and video’s Sparks are private, unless you share the content on your stream
Job Seeker’s Social Layer Sharing Content can span intimacy to planetary It is important to broadcast that you are seeking a job, rather than asking for 1 Leverage weaker ties or connections Engage your circles, rather than communicate with Reciprocate whenever possible!
Google+ Hangouts Has similar functionality to Skype Text, Voice and Video, all or any combination of the 3 Hangouts are open or by invitation Are currently not recorded or archived The current maximum limit is 10 user accounts
