Be careful when providing a potential employer with your video resume, blog or social networking site. You may have worked real hard on one or all of these. You may think that an employer will be impressed and consider you over other applicants.

Select a medium that is the best representation of you. Avoid saying or doing something that an employer can miscontrue. You may display a point of view that confuses or offends an employer. You never know what makes people tick.

These are all great services, and a fun convenient way to make the world a little smaller. Just be careful and give the potential employer an objective, simple and tasteful representation of yourself regardless of which medium you choose. The team here at GoliathJobs sees avoidable mistakes that job seekers make daily. In order to not make those mistakes, carefully consider your options when displaying your information.

The old saying “you only have 1 chance to make a first impression” is right on. Always remember that and you will do great.

Thank you for reading. Good luck in 2008!

For Immediate Release

SPRINGFIELD Mass., Premier Education Group (PEG), which includes Branford Hall Career Institute, Salter College, Salter Career School, Seacoast Career School, Harris School of Business and Suburban Technical School, has added GoliathJobs.com as a resource for all campuses.

The services offered by GoliathJobs will be available to the career service departments at all schools. Administrators have the option to view and verify students & alumni that register on the site. This verification will give job seekers an edge when applying for a job or internship. This also gives employers peace of mind that candidate information is accurate and recognized by the school. “PEG’s quality education and excellence is reflected in their students. Employers will appreciate this connection,” says David Mezzapelle, Director of Marketing at GoliathJobs.

The GoliathJobs system will also facilitate communication with alumni, allowing their PEG education to be a tool for future employment when needed. The school-direct posting feature will allow employers to maintain existing relationships with specific schools they like to recruit from.

I hope you are enjoying the Holiday Season.

GoliathJobs has recently launched a new feature to assist employers & recruiters in their recruiting efforts at no charge. If employers have any schools they like to recruit from (including alumni associations), we will market their job #s directly to them. This service will highlight those jobs to the particular schools so that students & alumni will be looking at them instead of searching for them. This service will produce even more candidates then our standard platform. In addition, it will remind schools that the employer is a local organization supporting that institution.

In a short time, this feature has resulted in a 3-4x response rate from job seekers over our standard platform.  Plus it is produces a majority of verified candidates across all ages & demographics.  Employers love it. 

Schools include undergraduate, graduate, specialty, technical and trade schools as well as alumni & professional associations.

There is no charge for this. It is simply another value-added-service that GoliathJobs offers for free. This also eliminates the need for the employer to manually post each job at local schools. We do that on their behalf.

Employers or recruiters interested in this service can contact me at jporter@goliathjobs.com or select “Contact Us” at the bottom of any page of our website at www.goliathjobs.com.  Our support team is standing by 24/7 to answer any questions you may have.  Happy Holidays!

I just completed my Fall internship.  I worked at GoliathJobs along with other great employees and interns throughout the US.  At the end of the internship I was required to do a report.  I thought I would post this report to the GoliathJobs blog as well as Facebook and the Fairfield University Network. 

Anyone that is reading this, and considering an internship, I strongly recommend applying to GoliathJobs.  They are hiring interns at colleges throughout the country.  The experience and future career potential are great. 

I am heading to spain for Spring semester abroad.  I will be back at GoliathJobs for a Summer internship as well as Fall and Spring next year.
