Freelancing Tip from Sologig.com

February 4th, 2009

Sologig, the online service billed as the place where freelancers and employers connect offer the following advice on Freelancing in 2009.

Freelancing Quick Tip:  Going Beyond a Resume

With the amount of layoffs announced in January, the piles of resumes that employers have to sift through to find the right candidates are growing across a variety of industries.  It is becoming increasingly important to provide more information than the standard resume allows for, and social networking sites are a great place to start.   For example, try creating a professional profile on Facebook, MySpace, and LinkedIn.  Then, customize each profile to show off your career goals, hobbies, skills, and experience.  You can also add links to direct people to your blog and code samples, display a portfolio, or even upload a video resume.  Allowing employers to learn as much as they can about your skills and background will help them connect you to the right opportunities faster.
