So, being consistent is important, which means I created a "theme" for my discussions based on my expertise. Cross-reference the relevant discussions in my blog. In addition, I encourage feedback. The more audience comments and engages in a website, the better chance for a post to show up in search-engine results.Linchi Kwokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07442479571857032065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-550644928710399345.post-19099413600657739552011-09-06T16:37:27.618-07:002011-09-06T16:37:27.618-07:00Personal connections are a great way to gain a job...Personal connections are a great way to gain a job. The Internet is so popular now a days and people are used to applying to jobs online and not in person. When applying for a job online, the employer has no way of knowing who the person applying really is. If that person was to go to the company and personally introduce themselves and ask for an application it is a lot more personable and it is seen as a positive tactic. I found all of the stories in the video very interesting. I think they prove everybody’s point that personal connections are key to being successful. It is very important to keep in contact with anybody that is believed to help you in your career. When staying in contact with these people they may be able to help you and give you a job referral when you need it the most.Michelle Bevilacqua HPM 314noreply@blogger.com
