The Social Networking trend is drawing great clout across all industries and companies have begun to sit up and begin leveraging on this force, incorporating it into their branding, positioning and customer acquisition strategies.
Very recently, a novel networking trend and concept has swept the recruitment search fraternity by storm. The new order transforms the presentation of a traditional static state of the CV or resume with Facebook, Myspace, or LinkedIn. This is what I would deem as the “Digital Personal Advertising Tool” for job seekers and could well become the future trend for recruitment search firms to rejuvenate their “not so exciting” fraternity.
And on a more definitive mode, a newly created integrative Visual CV concept product is giving one recruitment search firm a new channel to attract Internet savvy job seekers. This is achieved via a one-stop avenue for the internet savvy individual to display his or her personal, academic and professional achievements, all under one roof. The awesome power of the Visual CV lies in its ability to link with LinkedIn, Facebook page, blog and email signature in the form of internet bio that makes you searchable to any interested party.
Wall Street Journal was quoted to have reported that the VisualCV, lets job seekers create an online resume that can include work samples, references' video testimonials and a visual for accomplishments, such as a chart showing surpassed sales targets.
The attraction of the Visual CV would appeal more to the up-and-coming, aspiring mid level managers trying to impress recruiters of their web networking skills.
While there are obvious advantages to adopting the Visual CV, we must agree that more private or the less internet savvy personalities would be largely disadvantaged should the Visual CV mode of self representation becomes an industry norm.
In any case, for the career-seeking early adopters heavily immersed in social networking trends, this is your golden opportunity to shine with your very own Digital Personal Advertising Tool !
