Don't stop believing - displaying my writing skills

http://ericseportfolio.blogspot.ca/2013/02/dont-stop-believing.html

This post displays my writing ability relative to social media. I think is important especially in the business world because everything has to be written formally with minimal spelling errors. 

First Impression Video

This is my first impression interview. This is especially important in the business world because a first impression is everything. There is no 2nd first impression so the way you make it could have an impact on your future. Could be one of the deciding factors whether you get the job or not.

Facebook Profile

Unfortunately This is my personal facebook profile & not one that I have made separate for jobs.In saying that though, I still think a facebook profile is important because it gives them a sense of who you are based on your pictures.  A business wouldn't want to higher someone who has careless photos that will give their company a bad rep. Especially if its for one of the management or executive positions.

Change in social media

                Social media will continue to grow and expand in ways that are beyond our wildest imagination. You can say bye to all your paper books soon a long with your newspapers. Scary enough even home phone lines might disappear one day as cell phones continue to become more technologically advanced.  With thus being said, there are down sides to all of this. It is getting a lot harder and harder to keep your privacy anymore. It also means less face to face communication. None the less though it is growing fast and it will help the business world in the future.

                I definitely think social media helps marketing a lot more than people think. There are a lot of social networking sites out there that make it very easy to market your product. Whether it is face book or twitter or instagram, products are being marked all the time and sometimes you may not even recognize it. Not just social media but even changing ads you see. Billboards could change so they are advertising not one product but multiple which is definitely a way to utilize advertising affectively.

                In terms of popularity I would definitely say video games. The PS4 is set to release this November and the graphics are absolutely stunning. If you think back just 10 years ago when video games were more or less new, they have come long a way. People are able to interact with things like the kinect and Wii U which no one even thought would be possible 10 years ago. I just can’t wait to see what the future has in store for us in terms of technology cause the world is going to become a much cooler placer than it already is!
