Social network is not only Social now, its personal and beyond 👍 👍

There has been much discussion on the use of social media and its effect on individual's health. But when there is more than a billion mobile connections in a society and easy and faster access to internet is available its tough to resist the usage of social media or internet among people. 

I have noticed not only the young generation but the older generation too is not very much away from the addiction. I have seen people were luring their parents and elders to use internet. Forget about elders, children too are not immune to these screens or addiction. May be its a touch screen mobile or a TV or a computer, babies are left with these screens for hours together. This brings the interactive human behaviour to a stall. Hence limiting the development of their brain.

May there be enormous futuristic technologies and the most advance technologies like the cloud, big data, Many one touch solutions in man's life the most exciting touch of love and affection cant be demeaned. I see emotions and responses in whatsaap status quotes and the same can be well judged by ones likes in facebook. And there are many other activities in ones social usage activities by analysing which one can ascertain the user's mental and emotional status. Social network is no more social rather its been a public platform to express your internal feeling and emotions. Earlier when people used to have conflicts they used fight it out and express it or surrender to it. But now where people face confrontations and where they find no acceptance or affirmation of their views they find social media an option to release their frustration. But these are in most cases backfires and should be avoided. And secondly these frustrated posts or status notes create the most weird confusions and leads to worst results too. Recently my friend got to for a weekend football match with me and he put it in his whatsaap status as "feeling excited, after a log time will play & feel relaxed", now think of all probable  weird guesses by people around. The responses were really nostalgic. 

Anyway there are positives and negatives in all aspects wherein one has to be cautious in choosing between good and bad choices.

Going for an Interview...Perhaps re-think about the interviewer.

It has been years I am into recruitment and I have witnessed a drastic change in the way industry recruits and the ever changing trend in doing so. Here today we will discuss few best Recruiting skills those are quite popular today.

This has occupied as the best source of resume status from all the recruiters today as this provides the best available junk of resumes as database. In India particularly this has been over  decade job portals have enjoyed the favourable source of resumes. But with time passing these portals too have matured. And the next step is not only resumes database but the real time availability of the resources is in style these days. That is where portals like LinkedIn and headhochos are gaining popularity. And corporates & recruiters too are checking the linkedin profiles for recommendations while selecting the right fit. - Hence maintain an updated Linkedin profile studded with recommendations.

• Social Networking sites

With only 30 to 40% of total available resources have reach through the job portals and With the rise in the millions of Internet users and that to on mobile devices the recruiters has just another way to reach the potential candidates. Yes its your facebook page or twitter page wherein the recruiters are scanning. Hence suggest to respond to mails mainly in the inbox.

They try to befriend the reachable candidate to reach the unreachable candidate through his network.  Hence spread a word to mouth about your looking out for new opportunity in your professional network, who knows who is impressed enough to refer you.
