The way we job search has moved to a new frontier. We have expanded our job search beyond the traditional methods of word of mouth, using the phone or mailing our resume. Like a Trekkie, we are moving our job search strategy to “where no one has gone before.”
Here is a primer to expand your job search vocabulary while using the Internet.
Netiquette - network etiquette. This is the Internet merging with Emily Post. The guidelines are a code of conduct for acceptable behavior for online communication.
Wikipedia - a web-based, free encyclopedia written and edited by volunteers. The site combines the word “wiki,” a type of collaborative website along with “encyclopedia.” Since Wikipedia is a collaboration, be aware that it contains some misinformation and bias. Consider it a starting point for research.
Googling - obtaining information on the Web using the search engine Google. You can google an employer during your research. Google your name. See how you show up.
Digital Dirt - An employer or recruiter can find information about you on the Internet that is not complimentary. It might show you as you lapsed in judgment with your words/actions or were photographed at a party. Remember what happened to Olympic swimmer, Michael Phelps? Ouch!
Blog - a contraction of “web log” is a free, shared on-line journal where people can post diary entries about their personal experiences, expertise, hobbies, you name it. A blog is frequently updated and meant for public consumption and comment. Today, specific blogs are being created like corporate blogs (internal/external/ceo), video blogs (YouTube) and mp3 blogs (music/audio).
Social Networking - the way users build online networks of contacts and interact with personal or business friends. We have seen our sons and daughters use MySpace (music fans) and Facebook (classmates) though the boundaries have expanded to include all kinds of users. Professionals can meet and be introduced to other business contacts through LinkedIn.
Microblogging - allows the subscriber to broadcast short messages to other subscribers of the Web service. Microposts can appear on a website and/or be distributed to a group of subscribers in real time as an instant message or a cell phone text message.
Microblogging is immediate, portable and brief. Heard of Twitter? Presidential candidate Obama used Twitter on the campaign trail. Now, The New York Times and the BBC are sending headlines and links. There is potential use with traffic and sports updates along with the emergency broadcast system. What possibilities can you create to forward your job search?
JibberJobber - Need to get more organized with your job search? If a spiral notebook or Excel spreadsheet doesn’t work, www.jibberjobber.com could aid your career management.
“E” - in front of any word, means electronic. We know about email, but the list continues with
esignature
ezine
ecommerce
Watch for more ewords as our eworld continues into new frontiers. The future is here!

Remember that when you are in the interview itself, you must be just as careful a shopper as the interviewer is. When you’re talking with the person who might be your boss, find out from him or her specifically what makes the person who will ultimately land the open position a top performer – in the top 20% sparkly bracket. First of all, it’s important to know exactly what those characteristics are. But it’s also important to know if your potential boss actually knows what those characteristics are. How can you please a boss who doesn’t know what he or she actually wants? And then decide whether or not you want to please your boss in just those ways. Qualify your potential boss just as much as they're qualifying you.
Make sure you are willing to actually meet those characteristics. If you’re picking up a vibe of prejudice, attitude or cynicism, don’t automatically think, “it will be different with me.� It probably won’t be. But you won’t really know for sure until you find out what’s behind that ‘tude.
