GlobalPitch - Create and use your professional profile
I wanted to invite you to check out our company, GlobalPitch, Inc. at www.GlobalPitch.com. In a nutshell, GlobalPitch is a comprehensive Web 2.0 site for job seekers. Candidates can create, manage and distribute their complete career portfolios.
Our goal is to lead the transformation of how job seekers leverage rich media technologies (such as endorsements, photos, and video resumes) to impress employers. We believe over time the use of profiles like this to represent oneself will be commonplace and eventually replace old-fashioned resumes.

As the December issue of Human Resources Executive notes: “The percentage of recruiters using search engines to learn more about job candidates increased to 83 percent in 2007, from 75 percent two years earlier, while the percentage of recruiters who eliminated a candidate based on online information jumped to 43 percent, from 26 percent in 2005.”
Just think, almost all of the recruiters (and probably most company hiring managers) are checking you out on the Internet. What will they find? Will it change their perception of you in a positive or a negative way? With this in mind, it’s critical that you get out ahead of them and proactively manage your online presence. Here are a few ways to make sure your online presence is aligned with your goals: - Do an Internet search on yourself to see what comes up. - Check your MySpace, FaceBook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social and business networking pages. - Look at this like a mini (yet important) research project. - Think of other ways to find yourself online.

Most of you probably know the concept of an elevator pitch. It is a brief and concise overview that you could deliver in the time span of an elevator ride (say, thirty seconds or 100-150 words). The term is typically used in the context of an entrepreneur pitching an idea to a venture capitalist or a sales rep who finds him/herself face to face with a decision maker.
So, why can’t a job seeker use the same concept? It’s powerful (and confidence-building) to be prepared to deliver your own personal elevator pitch.
