Not getting interviews or not getting through the interview process? Part 2: Networking/Social Media
Part 2: Networking/Social Media
I have said this (wrote it) before, your resume, networking, and one's online presence work together to create a total package. These are key essentials I consult every person I work with. I was once a manager and a recruiter. I still work in Human Resources with the Talent Acquisition team. I utilize my resources and skills to help people (Sometimes to help the recruiter and managers).
1. To sum up part 1, your resume reflects your knowledge, skills, and abilities to market yourself well. In addition; online resumes, paper resumes, and even portfolios/e-Portfolios all market to present your work, and prove your work ethic.
2. What is Networking? Networking is interacting and exchanging information, genuine relationship building towards getting career/job information. Networking is a career development skill in job searching. Utilize your network!
Social Media check: Is your profile visible to everyone? (You can change this in your settings if you care to).

- Alumni networks, such as schools, colleges, etc. Join an email list of Alumni networks, and join on social media.
- Join a professional organization. This may have an annual fee. For example, the National Organization of Human Services (NOHS). Interact with an organization or group you are already a part of like Sorority and Fraternity.
- Use social media groups, especially Facebook. Search for groups and pages geared toward job searching in your area. My nonprofit has a Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pcdserv/.
- Also, LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a professional networking and job resource group.
- Fellowship at church, ask sports coaches, mentors, teachers, etc.
- Family/Friends and your good neighbors. Ask them, you already have a relationship so it would not hurt to ask.
