"Hi Amanda, I was weary of Google plus when it first came out, but I am noticing it is picking up huge steam. I like it and its functionality. Has anyone else seen a decline in their LinkedIn views? I think it is because of Google Plus and Twitter."

"Bill, I think that you make a great point: "if you're serious about your business G+ is a must.". I agree. There are a few nice recruiting tools new to the market that leverage this same functionality.  Thanks for the Amanda."

Why more recruiters should be using Google Plus

I know it starts to feel a bit overwhelming when you constantly feel like you’re obliged to sign up to the newest social networking site in an attempt to stay in touch with social media trends. But let’s face it, Google Plus isn’t really “new” anymore, so if you aren’t a user yet, you are already being left behind.Let’s discuss why:First of all, Google is a global corporation, specialising…See More

Ryan Mulrooney commented on Amanda Ashworth's blog post 'Why more recruiters should be using Google Plus'
"The issues that I have found with Google+ is their upkeep is poor.  It is very hard to get a review posted and even harder to get an inflammatory review removed.  Based on how effective G+ has worked for me, I am not sure that I would…"

Bill Vick commented on Amanda Ashworth's blog post 'Why more recruiters should be using Google Plus'
"A timely post. I'm finding the engagement on G+ higher than LinkedIn, Twitter or Facebook. The demographics are also more in keeping with most recruiters niches as well. LinkedIn is still the go to guy for pure networking and finding but if…"

Posted on March 26, 2013 at 9:21am 0 Comments

People trust people. It’s a fact. You can spend millions on advertising trying to persuade people to trust and choose your brand over others, but ultimately your success comes down to people. People and what they say about you. People and what they think about you.

Why?

They are at the heart of your business.

They are your voice from within.

And if you treat them right,…

It’s just plain sexy isn’t it? All that swanky data flying about the place, waiting to be caught, analysed and converted into knowledge and return.

According to IBM, every day we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data – so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone. This is a mind-blowing statistic that…

Posted on March 15, 2013 at 8:44am 0 Comments

After taking a few days to recover from the madness that is Tru, here are my thoughts and what I took away. Once again I was not disappoint and spent 3 days in the Tru bubble where I met some really interesting people from across the global.
