Video Resumes and a Blog, Blog, Blog, Blog World.
I had the chance to talk with a reporter from Time two weeks ago about video resumes. Browsing the comments over at Magic Pot of Jobs, I got in a tiff with Tiffany, and when the reporter called, Tiffany sent her my way.
After a good chat with Lisa Cullen, I passed her on to George Lenard, the Employment Blawg, who is now in Time Magazine (like he needs any more press - the man is a one-man PR machine). Why did I think of George? Because he wrote a blogpost about Hirevue (one of my clients), who also blog.
The Time article written by Lisa.
The story George uses about orchestras, I've actually seen before, in the book, Freakonomics, and both of those authors blog.
Who else does the story mention? Jobster, of course, who also blog.
Anyone else see a trend here? Maybe while we're tracking ROI, we ought to be adding media mentions. Too bad we can't put a value on a Lisa-to-Tiffany-to-Jim-to-George social network.
And the reporter, Lisa Cullen? In addition to being a staff writer? She blogs.
