JibberJobber Blog » Favorite Friday: LinkedIn Maintenance (for the year?)
July 17th, 2008. LinkedIn Maintenance: Do This Right Now (or else?) (61 comments – once you do this, leave a comment to report back )
Make today the day you spend a few minutes to back up your LinkedIn stuff… this post tells you how to backup CONTACTS and your PROFILE (including Recommendations).
It might be the most critical thing you do today… I’ve heard of many, many people who have lost access to their LinkedIn account. How would you like everything you’ve done on LinkedIn to go away? I wouldn’t like that either.
So go read the post, and backup both your Contacts (by exporting your LinkedIn Contacts) and your Profile (by saving your Profile as a PDF). Do this at least once a year.
BONUS IDEA: Once you have your Contacts exported, do something with them! Many people import them into a CRM system (like JibberJobber).

JibberJobber Blog » When do you change your job search criteria?
When I started my job search, about 6 years and three weeks ago, I knew what I wanted:
- More than I was making in my last job (I had forgone three years of raises and salaries, and really felt I was underpaid (long story)).
- A short commute from my house. The commute I had just left was 30 minutes, which I didn’t like.
- To stay in my house. I didn’t want to uproot my family.
I’m sure I had other criteria, but those are the three that I am remembering right now. As the weeks went by, and my job search got more pathetic, my criteria changed.
I was okay to not have such a senior level title.
I was okay to commute into the city (yuck – I cringe as I write that!!).
I was started to look at jobs that would require me to move. And I …

Lance Haun » Disclosure Isn’t Enough If You Want People’s Trust
I think a lot about trust. And maybe more importantly, I think about how mistrust happens. Specifically when it comes to writers, columnists, bloggers, and journalists.
Often, when people talk about disclosure, they are usually talking about money. And if you’re a blogger or writer and money is changing hands, I think you should always be on the side of clear, full disclosure. And just for the record, I’ve been called out about disclosure. More on that in a second, though. First, let’s talk about money.
$ $ $
Money is powerful. I think about the work I do with ERE and how I take our work there (and especially the parts I’m intimately involved with) very personally. But I should, because ERE doing well means I do well and there’s a trigger there in my brain. That’s why I disclose when I talk about our events or publications, usually right …

JibberJobber Blog » Relationship Management: Getting Multiple Contacts Into JibberJobber
Yesterday I did some research on a company that should acquire JibberJobber. I’m not in talks with them, yet, but if it happens, I want to know who I’ll be talking to.
I went into LinkedIn and did a search on the company, narrowing it down to executive titles. I opened up six LinkedIn Profiles that I want to keep track of. I was going to put them all into JibberJobber today, one by one. But then I thought it would be faster to import them. So I did
First, I created a very simple spreadsheet. Note the first row:
In the first row, each column starts with what I’m putting below. First Name, Last Name, Title, etc.
Then, I saved it as a CSV. That is critical!
Then, when I imported this very small spreadsheet, in the last column, I chose which company to associate …

we are…jobgeeks » The Oxymoron: Career Planning
Career Planning in 2012 ~ light on the planning | heavy on the career. So, this is what it's come to, eh?
Here’s a few facts to curl your hair, baby-boomer:
- U.S. Worker's Median Tenure in Current Job: 4.4 years.- Average # of Jobs in a Lifetime: Men – 11.4 – Average # of Jobs in a Lifetime: Women – 10.7
According to a few folks spotlighted on FastCompany this month, well…yes. And we just might want to start getting comfortable with the notion that career planning 2012 looks nothing like its counterpart from the 70's – 80's – 90's….(at least not to those of us born in the 60's).
It’s a quick read – check out the FC article by Anya Kamenetz HERE!

we are…jobgeeks » College in America [infographic]
On average, college grads earn more $$ than those without a college degree. It's difficult to debate otherwise. However, Fast Company created this infographic about the debate, making two points:
1. Whatever students are doing in college, it doesn't appear that "education" is the most important part of their day (witness how students spend their hours every week).
2. “Some majors don’t really qualify you for much.” Again, it's hard to argue against this point. But that also assumes that every student is about nothing but the money. And hey, if you've seen my fave quote (upper right-hand corner of blog)….well, here it is, whether you like it or not:
“Life is too short not to do something that matters."
But I digress.
Tired of listening to me type? Ok, here's the infographic:

we are…jobgeeks » Job Search and Confidentiality [infographic]
I can still remember when the extent of "job search confidentiality" meant trying to print your resume and then fast-walk to the printer before one of your colleagues who might find your resume and discover your "job-search-secret."
Yep, things have changed a lot in the last 20 years. There's millions of other things to consider (or at least just one): social media.
