NEW! - Next Generation Documents - Beyond Resumes

Resumes are still, and will continue to be the primary document in your job search. There is also a critical need for comprehensive, cohesive, branded career messaging and marketing.  Social media and personal branding continue to skyrocket, affecting everything in job search and career communications at every level from student to CEO.

Next GenerationDocuments are the “Show and Tell” for social media and include profiles, bios and web portfolios. You are fighting for attention and companies are now reviewing you on all the social media outlets and search engines.

The WordSmith has added the creation and preparation of Next Generation Documents for our clients.

Portfolios

A portfolio is a personalized collection of documents that demonstrate and validate your candidacy as a professional in your field of expertise. Whether as an e-portfolio or hard copy portfolio it can include text, graphics and multi-media elements.

Social Media Profile

Your profile on LinkedIn and other social media outlets should be consistent across the board. It should sum up one message – one that identifies and differentiates you from the others. 

Biography

A bio is a great networking tool and should be consistent with all other collateral including your website, resume, cover letter, profile and portfolio

We are now talking about a modular library as components to be used now and in the future. At any point these career components can be placed into multiple career marketing vehicles on paper and across the web. Brand, job history, impact statement, testimonials, and more will be created as modules, ready to use at a moments notice to create an on-line profile, an employment proposal, a social media resume, etc.

For further information contact The WordSmith and learn how you can keep on top of the new trends in social media.
