Well said! I have just recently come to realize the power and importance of contributing to social media after reading Dan’s book and taking a graduate course on personal branding. It has definitely expanded my connections and helped me to create a professional rapport with people I never imagined I would be having conversations with. Thanks for the great post!

Nancy, this stuff takes time, practice and know how, I swore I would never do the twitter thing and here I am. I will continue to tune my craft and I agree with you, do it selectively in the settings that say who you are as a potential candidate to an employer not just mindless irrelevant every day stuff.
Thanks for the heading.

Great article Nance. No wandering, just specific.

Is this advice valuable to everyone? Should we all follow it?

Nance, this statement “That you are not absent from the web, doesn’t equate to your being really present on the web’ is extremely correct. thanks

Nance,

Excellent points about being visible. I recently wrote a blog about this same subject – although a little more focused – on our Job Search and Career Management Blog titled “Are You Beige?” Do you fade into the woodwork? How can recruiters, human resource professionals, and hiring managers find you if you’re invisible. A good statistic from our recent research on Linkedin profiles indicates that less than 10% of job seekers on Linkedin can meet a minimum standard for personal branding. No status updates, no participation in groups, no Q and A involvement, and the list goes on.

Many candidates wonder why their job search is taking 6, 9, and 12 months. One of the Top Ten Job Search Mistakes – again another blog posting from our research – is ineffective personal branding through being beige or as you term it “invisible”!
