New Feature: Be Known for Your Ideas with Your Brazen Careerist Social Resume - http://www.brazencareerist/2010/03/09/new-feature-be-known-for-your-idea...

Maybe I am missing something here, but between my Google Profile and Google Buzz conversations, might I not already have a Social Resume?
Also, I would be VERY interested in seeing the rate and timeline of adoption by hiring managers and recruiters/sourcers of Social Resumes. And, how do you capture the info on a Social Resume into one of those dinosaur-like things called Applicant Tracking Systems that everyone still seems to be using?
I LOVE this stuff- it's getting the culture transformation going which is the tough part.

That was our thought process behind the concept of our Social Resumes. Hopefully, you start putting them all on your Social Resume. As far as planning goes, I try to leave it at just jotting down notes. If you can't focus on what you're doing full time, its not going to work. The other ideas can wait.
@Suzy - Good points. Your Google profile and Google Buzz conversations are just like conversations you have on any other network, they get lost after a few days. Sure, people can really dig to go find them but that's a lot of work, and most people probably won't take the time to go past the first 1 or 2 links they see. I'm also very interested to see the adoption rate of hiring managers and recruiters etc. Obviously as the product matures, we'll need to address issues like capturing info in ATS's. We already have some thoughts but the real challenge now is to get the word out!

Anyone have a specific hotel recommendation? I don't know squat about Austin. I just want one that has a pool and a hot tub!

Thanks Devin. Being that I have a bad hip (rebuilt, steel rods, the works) I'd like to keep the walking to a minimum. I'll check these out.

I would stick to the Hilton if possible. It's across the street. Good luck!

Just curious, but has anyone been able to convince their employer to pick up the enormous price tag? Seems a little out of range for the small business owner.

Some kid that it's a 'nerd spring break' more than anything. As Rebecca said, network is about the most value you can justify. The majority of the panels and speakers are simply rehashing things we all know just by 'keeping up'.

Then you can be the proud owner of a new 'department'in your company. Benefits included...relationship building, industry knowledge, exposure for your business, happy employees! Good luck...!

I've still never been to SXSW, but I'm determined to make it this year! I have to be at an ERE conference on March 15, but I'm planning to go for the first few days.
Love the idea of planning a Brazen SXSW party! Any ideas?

This will be my first time too, Ryan. I'm imagining taking over a bar one night - we could announce after Elysa's session.

It's the last place open in downtown, and they offer 'co-sponsored' parties where a bunch of companies can chip in to host for the night. Let me know if you want an introduction.
