Hey Everyone,
The other day I had the privilege of attending a Business Marketing Association event. BMA's Lightning Round was a great event that I really enjoyed. Going in I decided it was a perfect topic to base a video blog on and that it would be a great way to launch my very own.
Of course this idea of mine was right in step with some of the concepts that were presented at this event. Anthony Piwarun, one of the speakers that contributed to an interesting social media presentation focused on online positioning for employment, gave some specific advice to the camera which revolved around creating content as a means of positioning one’s self online.
When it came to formatting my resume a Mr. Stewart Landy suggested that I organize my resume in order of what I absolutely wanted to be known for to the smaller details of who I was professionally. He shared some tips about how to really make my accomplishments and experience stand out. Landy shared his insight with the camera also, to which I was very appreciative.
Find Piwarun on Twitter @Apiwarun and you can view the video version of this blog HERE.
I like the video too! It will definitely make anyone looking at you for a job put your name at the front of the list.
ReplyDeleteBrendan, in regaurd to the resume, I agree that its important to give something memorable that defines you. In many occassions your resume is the only information a company will have to base their decision on. In my experience at the BMA event, a professional suggested that i bullet more of my information to make it more easily scanable.
ReplyDeleteGreat links! And what a great idea for a video blog...employers will be impressed! Glad you enjoyed the event as much as I did.
