Finding a job nowadays has become extremely difficult and to go out job
hunting we need a resume. Now with the technology innovations we have
experienced throughout these years with the internet finding out information
about others has become relatively easier. Future employers can find out who
the applicant is by searching about the individual. This is easy because of social media;
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, and so on.
If google is working as the new resume then we need to be careful what we
put and don’t put on the internet. In the social media and other websites where
we expose ourselves, we must.
●
Edit: requires going to any and all sites that
we find ourselves on, and edit what we have on them. What you have on there
will leave an imprint how the employer sees you as a candidate for the job.
Therefore make sure to leave a worthy impression.
●
Fill-in: any site usually allows you to fill out
a personal profile. Make sure to fill out completely and keep updated,
particularly on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Plaxo.
●
Expand: increase presence in the Internet using
forums, blogs, twitter, and videos.
●
Add: compose an old type resume and post it on
the internet where employers can have easy access to it.
Even though resumes isn’t the key way to get an employer to know you as
a valid applicant nowadays, we still need to have them to summarize and
organize the information about ourselves in one place whether it’s online or
off. After getting it down on paper you
can either post it on the internet for anyone to view or send it to different
employers and customizing in the way you feel will attract the employer to
you.
