Forget your resume or LinkedIn profile
INSTEAD:
Think of the NETWORK and the ENGAGEMENT
over that network
Blog exposing the subject matter expertise?
Conversations with other experts?
Quotes, comments, recommendations?
Continuous sharing of experience
Recommendations on LinkedIn?
Group participation and engagement?
Presentations, video and photo sharing?
…

How hiring managers & recruiters work
Review resumes and double check on
LinkedIn?
That was yesterday
Today: Scanning the social web to draw a
picture of the applicant
Communication skills
Socializing skills / team spirit
Subject matter expertise – reputation
The rolodex is replaced by the network
Visible expertise on blogs and other media
If you are a lonely guy, isolated from
today‟s world, your chance to get a job is
almost none.
