Given the power and presence of Social Media in our personal lives, how do we connect with fellow students, colleagues, and employers effectively while staying
Professional?
The answer
Remember that students are job seekers (and so is everyone else these days!)
... and Learning is not the only life-long pursuit anymore, so is our job hunt...
"You are a professional first ...and someone's employee second."
-Gregory Wood, author of "The hire road"

What do we need to do to succeed inthe arena of Social Media?
Social media sets you up for success
It's really one part of
your overall strategy
There are proven techniques on how to use Social Media to be a successful lifelong professional person and a successful job seeker.
These are mastered by recruiters, HR personnel, educators and other professionals.
Before we get started………..
Getting Started• Make sure to brand
yourself in a professional manner
• Once you have your brand it should be the link to your professional social media all other online professional contacts
You need to create all these items (keeping your brand) and then l ink them to Linkedin
m
Why Linked ln?
Employment studies show that 60% of Jobs are found through"someone you know"
And ... employers like using social media
the people they find through social media are better hires!
What do recruiters look at?
What do recruiters do when there are 3 persons for every job?
They sort...
BDo not want to hire
ADo want to
hire· Candidate is
professional, active, and fits into our culture
• Candidate is not active• Candidate is not
professional• Candidate is a serial
killer• Candidate is deceased

8 Steps Towards Building Your Brand, Monster.com Barbara Reinhold
1. Identify the primary "product" (service, resource, special ability, etc.) you have to offer others.2. Identify your core values. What really matters to you?3. Identify your passions. What things or ideas do you love?4. Identify your talents. What have you always been recognized for (particularly as a kid)? What do you do better than most other people? What skills do people seem to notice in you?
5. From your hopefully long list of talents and qualities, choose the top five, the ones you do best and enjoy doing the most.6. Weave the items on all your lists into a statement of your specialty. What are you particularly gifted at delivering?7. Write a paragraph emphasizing your specialty and your five key talents, weaving in your most important values, passions and skills.8. Now add a tag line to your brand.The Tag Line Tells Your Story
