Tweet Wrap-up for the Week of January 18, 2010

January 22, 2010

What a week! First the Rock Unemployment relaunch, then the wind, rain, and hail here in Los Angeles. Who knows what the weekend will bring?

Here’s a wrap-up of this week’s tips from @RUbetweenjobs.

Job Search Tips:

  • Hiring managers check Facebook for research on job candidates. Go through your Facebook photos – including your friends’ tagged photos – to make sure they’re all interview worthy.
  • Collaborate on a side project with a friend and put your skills to work while creating something you can add to your portfolio.
  • Get your interview skills in order today. Call an unemployed friend and take turns asking questions.
  • Make one new job connection this weekend. Ask friends, talk to strangers, or catch up with pals online.

Cheap Fun Idea of the Week:

  • If it’s raining where you are, embrace it! Go out and play! …or just read about it on Wil Wheaton’s blog

Now I’m off to bundle up under a blanket and snuggle with the dog. Stay warm out there!
