now okay great so it does anybody have
any questions that came up for them but anything about digital identities search
engine optimization
LinkedIn and Twitter portfolio anything
yes ma'am
usually connection yes you can
so I'm gonna repeat the question I'm just so that we're
sure to capture them on the video I have that handy Mike right here
for the question and once you connect with someone
on links and can you delete that connection down the line
on yes you certainly can arm and I have done it
and I can but
make in both directions apart a bar LinkedIn workshop
next time around covers a step-by-step process future
find this little but not here and then poll this menu down and
so here phone number
purse you don't have to put your phone number
so that the the question is really about arm
and this is a great question cuz I think its on a lot of people's minds when they
think about joining
up a social network platform how public do I want to be.
on what are my options in terms apart a few
for you absolutely do not have to share your phone number on LinkedIn
you determine everything that you share on LinkedIn on
I don't share my phone number in like 10 I'm
and so he you can go back into LeapPad but
on I know especially in human service on
fields on we have sometimes run into some problems
with on people who have stocking issues and so
there are lots of on possibilities with LinkedIn
about blocking users about on
really thinking through how much public information you have about yourself
on and that's certainly something that will talk about during our next LinkedIn
fashion
we'll talk about privacy in had until the people how to block people
what to share what not to share the at their there are three different levels
of
on data that you share on Linkedin and we'll talk about what the FR
to answer your question yes great I rate
a lot of people are with social media platform so I think that's a great thing
to bring up
yes so created for
freight like which you
from their way change
spray it right email addresses because
by Twitter handle handle him
yeah that is a really great question fall repeat it
I'm what if you're in a situation where you started a Twitter account
a long time for several years ago several months ago and you used it for a
while for personal use
and you'd like to I'm kinda switch that account over to be used in service of
your digital identity
and as a professional what can you do about that
how can you kinda repurposed account on
super question and in not wait router is one of
me best social media platforms around
because in Twitter you can change everything
but you have ever done on Twitter you can delete
all your past tweets now don't get super excited
because your tweets possibly exist somewhere
but they will no longer exist on your Twitter profile and so
back that so great feature you can also change your Twitter handle
actual will and not as often not true and social media accounts
if you have a username you you can't ever change that username you can
open a new account but you can't change that in twenty you can always change
your
on about Twitter handle on Hugh can
always change the email address that you have associated with your Twitter
account
your late but cell phone that you associate with your Twitter account
30 at but twitter is super helpful to people
who are looking to repurpose an old account for a new purpose and and
deleting all those past week
is is probably the way to go on and you might
decide that you want to change your Twitter handle on
given that you maybe want your Twitter handle touch
to match your email address to match your portfolio you are well
are all and back pain if n so yeah Twitter's
really good tool I'm not fun that's a great question
any other questions from gonna go here here and there
yeah space yes
yeah
right play it rate
that such a good question I'm so glad you brought it up I'm
so the question is or why LinkedIn Twitter and your portfolio
wire that Facebook apart have the
the trio tools that we're using prejudicial identity
on you can use Facebook in service appeared angel identity
but the way you but you would have to use Facebook to do that is
a way that I think a lot of people are uncomfortable with
on for most people the default Facebook settings
has a certain level of privacy when you create a
a Facebook account there's a certain level of privacy where people can't see
your updates unless you are
friends with them on Facebook and fellow man
that default setting does almost nothing
for your digital identity and search engine optimization
now I have my facebook said
so that my facebook is completely public
because I'm using my Facebook in service
I have my digital identity and and I want to have that talk
arm I I am less concerned with privacy
than the average bear on so
a lot of people would not be comfortable with that at all
and so given that they want to have their Facebook account
they want to be connected with their friends and they want to publish their
funny little joke pictures
on Facebook they a lot of people want to keep that pace
spoke with a little bit of privacy we we we
often in the industry that often called behind the garden wall
on and so people often want to keep that
and for not helpful in popping your name up the way you want it to
if you're well you to make your Facebook account public
then it is helpful in your total i don't.
but most people aren't interested in that and so that's why I don't
arm offered us to serve part of our talk at
but it is a a very good tool if you're willing to make it public
so to answer questions great
okay your question yeah
it seems like I mean very individual process but right
point you the child
writing some reason I is share quickly how can you get help with that
great top tube really good question I'm from gonna repeat the question
on obviously the process of creating your digital identity and
opening the account and populating you comes with information it's really
individual on one person might make one third choice is another person might
make another set of choices
but in a lot of the fight if you've got to rate your byline you've got a radar
summary of yourself in like 10
on for your portfolio you have to write your bio
how do you get hope with time on and
and what are some tools to help you write those things in the best possible
way
stouffer in each of our deep dives I will provide instructions for what to
include in your summary
how to write a bio for your portfolio what
the third a there about five different byline options for
Twitter things that people usually say in their Twitter byline
Sol provide all those kisses the information in the deep dive that we do
armed but a the the option up having some other people help you with that
is the really great option it's always a good idea when you're using a specially
on that fate like LinkedIn or a portfolio
where your side have marketing yourself with that
summary or marketing yourself with that bio to run it by a couple people
that you work with am i you know kind across from the right way
on having other people on brief that stuff before you
on go ahead and post it is a is a great idea
I do have some researchers that will help you rate both thanks
but having from colleagues look at it I'm is the
a great idea army you could always
email me and and I would help you
have a couple reading degrees I might be a few I'm
freight to help yeah okay you have a question
here actually discuss my questions another question
often do it players lookit LinkedIn
as a the first fired play
huh cash shop great
shared
yes okay that is a great question I'm gonna go ahead and repeat it
I'm how often do employers who use LinkedIn as a part of their hair in
protest
on not to want to do things that will go over when we do a good job on LinkedIn
Killington have the couple love other features it is a
really ground as a platform from when it first started
there are now LinkedIn group that
beria professional organizations and
and people in that fear use
so if you're a social worker there are five hundred different social work group
on but you can join on more than 500 I'm sure
I'm so there's generally at least one group for every profession
on for most profession there's going to be many groups employers
really typically on post jobs
to those LinkedIn group on if you google
using social media for recruitment
which is what employers are doing errands their recruiting employees
on the use of social media for recruitment has just gone through the
roof
in the last five years arm
employers are really relying on not happily
on because bad that's where the people that they won a pair are spending their
time people don't look for jobs in the newspaper anymore
on and so I while there are fears
for posting a job to Monster dot com
on there's not a fee for posting a job to it
link group on LinkedIn and so employers are using LinkedIn very heavily
in their recruitment on and also im players are definitely googling you and
looking at your LinkedIn profile
when they're trying to hire you specifically did I answer your question
okay but the rest okay so the lake and
here where you're at me
who wishes you ask that on a resume or
cover great that such a great question
rate rate so on all repeat that question when you give an employer your resume
on should you include a link to your LinkedIn profile on your resume or
how should you do that on its so where these days to be handing out
employer a paper resume arm but if you are ever doing that
its a lovely idea to include in both sorta Heather up your resume
where your name is where your email addresses
to include say the URL for your portfolio
on which on your contact page would have your LinkedIn profile
if you don't yet have a pro a portfolio
you could certainly unused the LinkedIn on profile link
plimpton allows you to customize the URL for your profile page
so you can used
whatever handle you want to do for your
URL which which is nice because when it shows up well
when you're displaying an arrest me the other thing that I on
always recommend that will talk about when we talk more about LinkedIn next
week
is on keeping your resume in a Google Doc
and making that Google Doc public
taking your street address of love your resume
on because Union
nobody was really gonna send you mail ever again
so on so they really don't need your street at of
on so on your resume you wanna have
your name the city where you live that they know
that year living somewhere where you could drive to their company and have a
job there
rate you don't you don't live in Fe New York when you're applying for a job in
Portland
on anyone your email address
your phone you wanna think about whether you want your phone on their
if you want your fun to be public or not some people feel okay about that some
people don't
um you can always include your phone number in your cover letter
when you're applying for a job if you are happy to have your rest made public
and then don't want your phone number on your resume and then if you have your
portfolio you are all are your LinkedIn profile URL
the top on your resume and then the rest of your resume
and then on your LinkedIn profile you have that faith in your contact
information Rica but lots of different your health
and you can put the URL to your back to me
on your LinkedIn profile and then when they're clicking on that link
now two years from now five years from now
there always cooking to the most recent version
I'm your resume because it in a public Google Doc
and you can upload updated anytime you want
so a much better option and then attaching a PDF have your resume
because then they always have been old p
resume a few hours so using
using a LinkedIn profile on your resume is a great idea
having your resume online and linking to your resume from nearly profile LinkedIn
profile
is an even better idea am i helping
oh yeah okay i think is great
great wondered that way yeah coach rate
definitely yeah because they're going to get a lot of information
from your LinkedIn profile that you're not gonna have on your resume
show yelled
spot why he
yeah that's a great question I'm
what out what is what ap
rate I'm so a
what ap is a on
I'm actually really surprised but nobody's done it before I'm
it basically a text message service
Paris free so you have text messaging with your phone
on and your phone has a little button on it
that so messages
and you go in there you message with people
here phone could also have a little button on it for the watch
ap ap
and if you clicked on that button you could method with people
and once you've bought their ap all over the messaging is free
and if you are a messenger math message percent
you know that like I don't know how much I pay for unlimited messaging
on my phone I think spy twenty dollars a month but
in that not the famous a dollar 99 for the what
ap ap and then free for ever
show that's what what happened with that's why Facebook bad it
on
yea I mean Facebook if more interested in
in who you are and what you say age and what they can sell to advertisers about
you
but really more than anything Facebook is interested in being
on please check your ego on
in your digital life and so if they can
add what cops had their features
I don't know anybody who is an interest in free text messaging
you know especially if you have a teenager
you're really interested in not paying for their text messages
cuz they text message more than
great rate rate but they're really interested in being the hub love your
online life
there I mean a they are interested in selling your information for advertisers
but they're really Facebook membership is a dying
on and name need to drive people to their brand
and so they're their driving people to their brand
and they paid
