Comments on: Real World Networking – Increasing Your “Findability” http://www.careerjockey.org/real-world-networking-increasing-your-findability/ Ride you career hard so it doesn't ride you Tue, 24 Jan 2012 19:43:31 +0000 hourly 1 By: Kelly Giles http://www.careerjockey.org/real-world-networking-increasing-your-findability/comment-page-1/#comment-256 Kelly Giles Wed, 06 Jan 2010 18:04:57 +0000 http://www.careerjockey.org/?p=1703#comment-256 Chris is so right — setting up an online presence is key. You should have profiles on sites like Twitter and LinkedIn, and you should also have a professional website to serve as a homebase. The website should house your resume, and maybe even a video resume and online portfolio, and it should link to your social networking profiles. It could look something like this: http://my.confidentialresume.com/amorman/ Instead of sending your networking contacts a Word document that can be outdated in a matter of minutes, send them a link to your professional website! They'll have more information about you, and it'll always be current. Plus, links can easily and quickly be shared. Chris is so right — setting up an online presence is key.

I personally recommend setting up and completing your LinkedIn profile to be more searchable and findable on Google. I also recommend trying VisualCV and/or building your own blog or website.
