March 8, 2014:   How to Use Social Media to Turbo Charge Your Job Search

Social media isn’t just for teenagers.  It can and should be leveraged by mature job seekers/career managers to differentiate themselves as subject matter experts in their field.  Did you know:  Only 3% of jobs make it onto the big job boards AND 75% of jobs are filled through networking? Social media enhances your ability to network effectively. Shouldn’t you spend more time hanging out at the social media ”party?” This will be a lively, interactive presentation with Matt Levy, an HR Executive, career expert, keynote speaker and author. He has more than 15 years of experience in pharmaceutical/biotech human resources and is President of The Philadelphia Society of People & Strategy (PSPS), a 300 person senior level HR professional organization.
