2010 - A Fresh Start

A lot of the people we speak to are really looking forward to 2010.  Finally some good news to come out of 2008/9's bad recession, all that talk of doom and gloom that we've been battling - it looks like we are finally turning a corner.

2010 will bring a lot of challenges too.  More and more social media roles are being created and developed - I for one, see this as being an enormous part of a businesses growth.  Their marketing departments will take on social media executives/managers/directors encouraged to be creative with the space and generate traction in some way for their business.

If you are looking for a social media role in 2010, there are some things that you should be including in your application.  Don't just reel off a list of the blogs, social networks, youtube pages etc that you have, but include some success stories from what you have done, what it's achieved and how you maximized the opportunity.  Social media is about interaction, so don't let it be just one way (just links to your 'stuff') give it some meaning and substance.

This will really make you stand out as someone who not only knows what they are talking about, but has experienced it, first hand.  After all, that is what employers ultimately look for, matching their needs to your potential skill set.

Make every opportunity count, and all the best for 2010 - we'll be here to see you through a fantastic year, whichever career path you decide to take.  - Who knows what the future holds? - But there is a different feel of excitement in the air! Embrace it.
