(Wireless engineering job opportunities) Looking for Employment in Europe?
No commentsBy Ed Murray
Whether you are a seasoned professional who specializes in business networking, a new college graduate looking for that killer “first real job,” a technological extrovert who wants to get in on the whole social media craze, or whatever, now finding IT or Telecom employment in Europe is faster and easier than ever. Thank those trailblazers from years passed who had the vision to create huge computers, then PCs, then laptops, and of course the global marketplace we have come to refer to as the Internet.
It only makes sense that if you are employed in the technology industry, you should be using technology to land that perfect career opportunity. What person in his or her right mind wants to hire an IT person who uses the postal service to mail in a resume? That is almost akin to writing your resume with a pen. Sounds ridiculous, right? Of course, so if you are searching for IT or Telecom employment in Europe, visit an online job board to get yourself started on those interviews.
The advantages to online job boards are numerous. They are easy to use; they do not require a business suit just to get the resume in the employer’s hands; they are convenient; they allow you to save and post a resume. Probably what is best of all the features, however, is the ability to complete a specialized search. If you are interested in employment only in Ireland, for example, you can choose to search that way. But let’s say you live in Toscana, Italy and have family in Sicily. Since you are on a quest for the perfect career move, you are open to either location. Well, all it takes is a click of the reset button and you can complete your second search in no time. Not only can you categorize your search according to location, though. You can also narrow down your field of expertise. If you are only interested in the Bluetooth industry, for example, or if you are excited about both software and systems engineering, you can so specify. There are no surprises when you are in control of your search criteria. If you have only a specific amount of time you can dedicate to your job search let’s say in the car, with your personal laptop, during the hour your current employer designates as lunchtime then that is no problem, either. Just create and save an account with the specs and information you want, and go back to it later.
Playing online games, buying cool stuff at online auction sites, and paying bills are all really cool, but probably the best use of your technology background is utilizing the online job boards for IT or Telecom employment in Europe.

Public Relations Strategies For a Web 2.0 World: How to Maximize Media Exposure with Social Networking
By Nancy Marmolejo
Public relations strategies are evolving in the world of social networking and Web 2.0. Its still any business owners dream to be featured in a key media piece where their expertise and business are showcased. The free publicity and additional media queries alone can revolutionize your profits and position you favorably in front of prospects, clients, and colleagues. But what happens next? Do you sit by the phone and wait for the flood of calls that may or may not come in? Do you blast all your contacts with news of your good coverage?
Maximizing media exposure is key if you want to stretch a little media attention a long way. With the advent of social networking sites, a new way of maximizing your public relations is now underway. Social networking sites are pulling incredible amounts of traffic acting as their own media wires for savvy business owners. When done correctly, social networking can give new life to your media attention and position you in front of new prospects, referral partners, and media leads.
These public relations tips will help you expand your name recognition (and possibly invite more PR your way!) with social networking. Theyre simple, easy, and highly effective strategies.
1. Blog About It
Whenever you get media attention, be sure to mention it in your blog. Link over to the publication or whoever mentioned you and sing their praises. Use keywords that will attract new readers and identify your name with that topic. You can also talk casually on a blog about the emotional side of being featured in the media; share your excitement or behind the scenes observations (keep a positive spin!). This helps showcase your personality and highlight you as a good person for other media to call upon.
2. Use RSS Feeds to Share Your Message With a Wider Audience
Connect your blogs RSS feed to social networking sites so other people can start reading about your media appearances and other PR. The beauty of an RSS feed is that it does the work of cross posting for you! So if you share good news about a media mention, more people will learn about it. The impact of RSS feeds is exponential- check out the various sites for information on how to activate this powerful tool. Consider it your automated public relations department.
3. Create A Podcast Or Vlog (Video Blog) To Spotlight Your Media Exposure.
Script out a 1-2 minute blurb giving tips and information related to your area of expertise. Then casually add in These are the same tips I shared in the latest issue of Blah-Blah Magazine. Pick up the latest issue and let me know what you think by commenting on this blog! You dont want to make it an outright commercial, but rather a subtle nod to the great PR. If you were featured in a print publication, hold it up in the video; it will make a nice prop.
4. Let Your Database Know
There is nothing wrong with celebrating! Sometimes we just want people to see us in the spotlight. Write up a humble yet compelling note to your friends and invite them to check out your great PR. Link over to the site or to your blog where you talk about the experience.
Getting great PR is a wonderful gift but it doesnt stop there. Give your media exposure new life by sharing about it on social networking sites. Remember, youre not making a sales pitch, but rather a subtle nod to your great public relations.
