Traditional Format
Online representation of your resume in a format very similar to
your paper document
![Page 12: Get Social. Get Hired.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103110/54893c96b479590f0d8b5833/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
By: Mandi Lindner http://getsocialgethired.wordpress.com
Traditional Format
LinkedIn Utilize Introductions to network with 2nd and 3rd
level connections
Search for a company and send resume directly to someone in that department
Use 3rd party applications to connect other social media accounts to your profile
See who’s viewed your profile and start a conversation
![Page 13: Get Social. Get Hired.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103110/54893c96b479590f0d8b5833/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
By: Mandi Lindner http://getsocialgethired.wordpress.com
LinkedIn: Sample
In order to show up in LinkedIn search results:
•Log in often
•Update your activity (can be done through 3rd party applications)
•Complete your profile
![Page 14: Get Social. Get Hired.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103110/54893c96b479590f0d8b5833/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
By: Mandi Lindner http://getsocialgethired.wordpress.com
Traditional Format
Visual CV
Similar to LinkedIn BUT… You can embed documents and videos You can create separate profiles for different jobs You can track who views your CV
However… Not as many employers or friends may be on this site,
so it diminishes your network and limits reach
![Page 15: Get Social. Get Hired.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103110/54893c96b479590f0d8b5833/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
By: Mandi Lindner http://getsocialgethired.wordpress.com
Visual CV
Multimedia embedded into profile
More personable than LinkedIn’s “Summary” section, “About Me” suggests casual greeting
![Page 16: Get Social. Get Hired.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103110/54893c96b479590f0d8b5833/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
