UW-Green Bay’s Philip Clampitt says social media helps build reputation

Making sure your résumé looks professional when searching for jobs is important, but social media is becoming an efficient tool to show offs kills and professionalism to hiring managers. Philip Clampitt, UW-Green Bay Chair of Communication and Information Science, was interviewed by Post Crescent on the role of social media in job search. “You build your reputation on LinkedIn, or even Facebook, by talking about projects, things you’ve done in class, presentations you’ve made, or experiences you’ve had to show you’re continually learning,” he says. Clampitt is the author of “Social Media Strategy: Tools for Professionals and Organizations.” Full story available via the Post-Crescent.
