Where Have all the Raspberry Jobs Gone?

I (and you) know a lot of people looking for work.  Or going free agent.  Or both.

They are filling out applications. Sending resumes. Talking with their monster every day. Indeed!  Good luck.

Times have changed.  That's probably why you're looking. Change with them.

• Get a visual CV
• Put up some video – maybe a video "pre-interview" and send it along with the other "stuff"
• Get your own domain name
• Create some content on a blog, on slideshare, on twitter — wherever
• Be findable. 

Just do it. Sometimes the unexpected gets noticed — even remembered.  Or you can stay stuck in LODBAU (Land of Doing Business as Usual as Mark Stevens says)

To pick up your spirits, here's a tweak on a tune by Prince. We'll call it Resume Buffet (to the tune of Raspberry Beret)

Part of a Resume Buffet
The kind you find on Monster.com
Drowning in Resume Buffet
I wish I wouldn't have to send anymore

They say free agency can sometimes be the greatest
I'm not sure I'm ready for that
But I tell ya, If I ever have to do this again

I'm gonna do it diff
Cause my current try is toast
And I need stop being so stiff

Find Your Social Media ROI

I hear it from a lot of business owners: “Where is the ROI with all this Social Media?“ If this is a question you ask yourself, maybe we should work together a bit more. We can work together solo, or via a professional learning community. Find and increase your ROI. There is a “there” there.
