Social Networking - Stepping Stones for a Successful Job Hunt
|
|
|
| Social Networking could be one of the most important components of your job search. You can market yourself effectively when you're searching jobs through social networks. Most of the points below are well known to many. Some people would have them at the back of their mind, some wouldn't. But not too many actually follow these simple logical guidelines. If you are aware of them and do put them to use, I would like to connect with you on FaceBook. |
| |
| 1. Utilize All Available Resources |
| The net presents a world of resources. Ranging from your career related topics to job search engines, you can find almost anything online. Among these is the social media, which permits you to connect with others and share your profile with them. |
| |
| 2. Build a Reliable Network |
| Connect with you old colleagues and acquaintances. They will be willing to give you a referral or recommend a suitable company. Who you know can make all the difference in the world when you're job hunting. Having less but quality contacts is more important than having numerous contacts when it comes to connecting. Before making connections ask your self how the contact could help you and how you could help them. |
| |
| 3. Be Self-Motivated |
| Painfully true; finding a job could be a tough job in itself. If you need advice from a former colleague or want to talk about business connections or job opportunities, you have to make the first move. Reach out online and then consider setting up a get-together with former colleagues. Being straight forward and outgoing is a simple way to get recognized and pays huge dividends in the future. |
| |
| 4. Everybody Has Some Advice to Share |
| Never hesitate to ask your connections how they got their current job, why they left their previous companies, or if they would be willing to make an introduction for you. These networks create mutual relationships, so be sure to offer contacts, guidance and thoughts to others too — what goes around, comes around. |
