Hello, Everyone! I think the idea of this group is wonderful! I'm an active job seeker & I could honestly use some advice from creative & intelligent individuals like this group offers. I truly appreciate any advice or criticism that will make my resume better. I hope this link works. http://www.brazencareerist.com/sites/default/files/Adam_Raviart_Resume.pdf

For instance, as a Call Coordinator you can say that you managed incoming communications to a ## person sales team. Little things like that can go a long way. 106 weeks ago

As much as job titles are BS, what you say you are the day you walk in the door makes a huge difference in how fast you find new paths... If you have a lemonade stand on the corner, you are the 'founder.' :). Funny but true. Don't underestimate what you did at your job no matter what it was called. 105 weeks ago

I just joined this group and coincidentally I just found this interesting article on "How Twitter Makes You a Better Writer". http://www.copyblogger.com/twitter-writing/ I think some of you will find it interesting. Personally, I am still learning to conquer Tweeting, ReTweeting, etc. One of my New Year Resolutions is to tweet more often and increase my skills.

I don't like: mean, arrogant, complacent and want to pull you down with them type people.
Your Ambassador,

Hello, Everyone! I'm new to this group. I was just wondering if anyone else saw the film "Paranormal Activity". I found it to be creepy and well done. I was just wondering if anyone else had an interesting opinion. Also, if any of you saw "The Blair Witch Project" which did you like better? I like "Paranormal" better.
Adam Raviart:
'The power of the implied'. I like that. Excellent point, Vanessa. 116 weeks ago

I agree that it was far superior to Blair Witch. You actually saw things happen in Paranormal and I think that's what pushed up the creep factor for me. 116 weeks ago

Here's a little experiment: I want to see how many people got their current job through conscious personal branding via Social Media.
I work for Brazen Careerist right now and I have to say if it wasn't for my blog, Tweeting and personal branding for networking purposes, I wouldn't have this job.
Please respond if you've found your job through social media within this comment thread. Thanks!
