Please Do Not Comment On My Facebook Posts Comment On The Blog

Please Do Not Comment On My Facebook Posts â€" Comment On The Blog I recently wrote a blog post titled The evolution of a Bloggers Ego on my Jason Alba blog.   I wrote about a change Ive seen in the last three years since Ive been a blogger and having participated in other social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc.).   I think its an intriguing history you can read it there, but one issue I bring up is this: The discussion that a blog used to be able to create is not dispersed over various networks. This is different than it was three years ago.   For example, when I now pose a question or discussion on a blog post, I hope to get good, health debate.   However, what happens is I get a few comments here, a few comments on Twitter, a few comments on Facebook, a few comments on LinkedIn (if I post the question on LinkedIn), etc. This is good for ME, but horrible for YOU.   YOU being anyone who is not following me on Twitter, or my friend on Facebook, etc.   YOU is also anyone who comes over from a google search. Case in point the post from yesterday addresses two comments I got from Facebook.   My blog posts automatically become Notes in Facebook, and some of my Facebook Friends leave a comment there.   The problem?   That comment is seen by a few people, but really its lost to the masses. I contend that the comments from YOU on my blog posts are much better than my own blog posts.   So please, please, please bring the conversation back to the original blog post if you see my stuff on Facebook please DO NOT hit the Comment link rather, click on View Original Post to leave a comment on the blog.   Its better for everyone, even you, as your wisdom and input goes to a much bigger audience.

How To Use Pinterest for Social Recruiting [Cool Example]

How To Use Pinterest for Social Recruiting [Cool Example] Working at Carousel Consultancy has been a great experience for me: I’ve been able to combine my love for social media with my passion for helping people (in this case, helping people who are looking for jobs). Unfortunately, it’s time to move on due to personal reasons, so it seemed appropriate for me to share this role on all of the social media avenues that I use in a regular work day. But I wanted to go beyond Twitter, Facebook, and Google+, and since one of my latest addictions is Pinterest, I decided that was one of the best places to showcase this job vacancy. I had previously set up a board for a different position we were hiring for, but now that it’s filled, I decided to update it for the social media role. Why Pinterest? As I mentioned, due to the nature of the role, using social media to fill the vacancy is the ideal place to share the news. Carousel was one of the first recruitment agencies to set up boards on Pinterest, so we’ve got experience using the site. Plus, our Pinterest boards were previously featured on the Radian6 blog in their article “4 Approaches to Sharing Social Media Content on Pinterest,” so we’ve already been recognised as a great example of using Pinterest. But Pinterest is a great place for all kinds of companies and all types of job vacancies, meaning that if you’ve got a position for a Senior Accountant in a law firm, you shouldn’t be turned off. All kinds of people are on Pinterest, and they’re looking for images and content that represents who they are. How you use Pinterest for hiring depends on your company culture. You can be polished and professional or you can be funny and quirky. Pinterest is all about showing your personality and sharing valuable content through images that the community is interested in. How to get started with Pinterest? If you don’t already have a Pinterest account, you’ll need to request an invite. You can do this directly through the website itself, but if you can get an invite from a friend, it will speed up the process. Be sure to fully complete your profile so job seekers can easily see who’s hiring: include a photo (ideally, your logo), website (so job seekers can easily reference your company’s site), location (so they know where they might be working), and a brief statement about you so they know in a sentence what you’re about. Next, set up a new pin board. Go to the “Add +” link on the upper right hand section of the menu, then click on “Create a Board.” You’ll need to enter a Board Name, Board Category, and determine who can pin on the board. You can either title your board something general such as “We’re hiring!” or you can showcase the role itself in the title of the board. There’s really not an appropriate board category for hiring. Depending on the role and the company industry, you can choose from Architecture, Art, Design, Education, Fitness, Technology, or a number of other options. If none of them seem to be a good fit, then Other will be the best choice for your board. There are two options for the “Who can pin?” question: just you, or you and others. Due to the nature of a pin board designed for recruitment, you’ll probably be managing it yourself. If you want, however, you can add others. You’ll need their name if they’re already on Pinterest, or their email address. They will receive notification that they’ve been invited to participate on the board. Once you’ve set up the board, you can also fill in a description. Use this area to showcase the main details of the role, including the job title. People need to be able to find this board when searching, so be sure to include relevant keywords within the description. Now you’re ready to start pinning! What do you pin on your board? This is where you can have fun and get really creative with the board. Again, Pinterest can be used for all types of companies. First, you need to be clear about your company culture and what type of person you want to hire. Will the pins be serious and professional, or is a sense of humour appropriate? What specific aspects of your company culture do you want to represent on your board?  You may want to share how much you care about your clients, or how you help your clients, or what a great office environment there is. Next, get out the full job spec and highlight or make notes on the main keywords and themes of the job vacancy. Keep in mind characteristics such as the following: remote working, benefits such as gym membership, flexible working hours, location of your office, the industry your company is in, technical requirements and skills, and personal attributes such as an eye for detail, sense of humour, or creativity.  Search through Pinterest for each of these themes, keywords, or characteristics. Or think of images that might represent these ideas. For remote working, look for photos of a laptop on a beach. For your office location, search for photos of your city or neighbourhood. Work-related cartoons can also add relevant information and a sense of humour to your board. For more ideas, visit our Pinterest board for our Social Media Community Manager Blogger position. Feel free, of course, to repin our images… as that’s what Pinterest is all about: sharing graphic content. If you need a Pinterest invite, please email me. And if you know of anyone for the social media role, please let us know! Related: How To Design Your Alternative CV on Prezi.

Book review Expanding our now - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog

Book review Expanding our now - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog This book is Harrison Owens second book about Open Space, and it contains stories of how he arrived at the concept of Open Space, and of how it has helped and transformed various organizations. Also, the book touches on time, or rather on our perception of it. All we really have is now. The past is over, the future hasnt yet begun. But how long is that now? A week? A year? An instant? Harrison Owen argues, that we are free to choose our perception of that now, and that the longer our now becomes, the happier we are. A long now gives us continuity in our lives, rather than flitting from one short, hectic moment to the next. He believes (and all my experience points to the same thing) that Open Space meetings can expand our now. As he puts it: At the very least, open Space is about better, more efficient meetings. But theres more to it. Open Space meetings promote honesty, creativity, openness, productivity, self-organization, emergence, leadership, ownership and an elusive quality we might call Spirit. In his latest book on Open Space, The Power of Spirit, Harrison Owen writes about Spirit, but he is reluctant to define exactly what it is. We may not be able to define it unambiguously, but we all know when its present, and we all suffer when its not. Expanding Our Now contains many, many insights related to the practice of Open Space. One of my favourite thoughts is about what would happen in an organization that used Open Space all the time. Where Open Space as a practice had disappeared, because it was an ingrained part of the culture and structure. I think that could be a highly effective, dynamic and fun place to work. Another thought is what it would be like to live your life as an Open Space. It seems this is pretty much what Harrison Owen is doing. The four principles and one law of Open Space certainly translate to good living rules in my opinion. Imagine living by the following principles: * Whoevers present are the right people * Whatever happens is the only thing that could have happened * Whenever it starts is the right time * When its over its over And of course the one law (The law of two feet): If you find yourself in a situation where youre neither learning nor contributing, you have the right to use your two feet and leave. At the very least, living by these rules will keep you focused on what is happening, rather than on what you hope will happen. I recommend this book highly, but if youre new to Open Space, I recommend that you start with Open Space: A users guide and then read The Power of Spirit, before tackling this one.

From the Hiring Managers Chair 4 Job Interview Secrets

From the Hiring Manager’s Chair 4 Job Interview Secrets There are thousands of websites and books ready to teach you “How to interview for a job.” My goal is to show you how to be THE BEST in today’s new era of job search, to give a great interview! Face it, the hiring and recruiting process has changed since the last time you interviewed. It’s way more competitive, and your interview can make or break your chances. I’m here to help you increase your odds of winning the job as a result of a great interview. A “good” interview is no longer good enough. 4 Principles of Job Interviews 1. The Interviewer has an agenda. Know their agenda. During the interview process, there are really only three questions that need to be answered to help the HR person, hiring manager, or interviewer determine if you’re the right fit for the job: Can this person do the job? Will he/she do the job? Will he/she fit in with the company culture? 2. The interview is all about THEM: the company, the hiring manager, the interviewer. News flash: It’s not about YOU sharing all you can about YOU. Everything you say and do must be relevant and meaningful to THEM. Be very careful. Here’s an example: Question: Why are you interested in this job? A ‘YOU’ Answer: Because I have worked 10 years in this industry, I am strong with analytics and great with cross-group collaboration. I also think your company has great growth opportunities for my career. A “THEM” Answer: Because your team is facing challenges and opportunities that I want to contribute to. I believe I can fill your needs for an analytical leader who can lead diverse groups of teams. 3. The interview is your performance of a lifetime. You are being watched with every step you take, every move you make, including how you look. Think about it. From a company perspective, this is your BEST day. You have your best outfit on, you have been able to prepare with research, and you can say amazing things about yourself and even brag a little. If you can’t be a great listener or communicator on this day, OR if you make huge errors such as bad-mouthing a prior boss, then you probably won’t win this job. Don’t be fooled by venue, either. In this new era of job search, you may be meeting in a Starbucks café or on a web conference. Or the meeting might be called an “informational” or information-gathering meeting, which is really an interview in disguise. Alternatively, the meeting might be with a friend of a friend who might have the job you are looking for. Your safest bet: If there is a job involved, put that interview guard UP and keep it UP to avoid any mistakes. 4. You can’t over-prepare for an interview. In my 30+ years of hiring, interviewing, and recruiting for other teams, and coaching, I have NEVER heard a hiring manager say, “Wow, that candidate was too prepared for my interview,” or, “No way, she was too organized and had answers to every question I asked.” The #1 measure of your job search success is the number of interviews you are getting. So when you get one, make it great! What are some of your interview challenges? Share them in the comments section here.
