Looking For A New Job? Start A Blog
If you have been recently laid off or are considering moving jobs, you might want to start a personal blog. Not a blog about your favorite food or Yoga practice, but a personal blog highlighting your skills. If you are already working for a technology company, media or marketing firm, a personal blog could land you a dream job. An article at MSN highlights how a personal blog and Twitter got a media strategist a new job. The traditional resume was replaced by new social media outlets.
A personal blog may be a great way of building your “brand”, but you might want to also check your myspace or facebook and make sure you don’t have any pictures from your friends last bachelor party posted. Those can also show up very easily when your prospective boss does a google search for your name.
