Thanks Don.

  • Group: The Breakfast Club - NJ
  • Subject: Helpful LinkedIn functionality -- from The Breakfast Club - NJ
I'd to to point out some relatively new functionality which LinkedIn has added. On the page of every 1st level contact you have, is space for you to add notes to yourself about the contact. It's captioned: "Your private information about ____"

This appears on the right-side of a contact's page, far enough down that you may need to scroll slightly to see it. Just add free-form text for info such as: where you met; common interests; last discussion points; future discussion points; who you may have referred etc. It's great because every time you consult this person's profile, your private notes are right there; you don't have to fumble through another address book or offline database.

If you're new to LinkedIn Groups and are looking to better understand the fundamentals, very helpful information is at:

Date Last Updated: 10-13--2007
To: NewEnglandNetworking Group Members
From: Gary Wright – Moderator of NewEnglandNetworking Group

Subject: Group Guidelines

Background of the group:

Additional Group Names:

NewEnglandNetworking@Yahoogroups.com - General High Technology Roles
NE-Software-Engineering-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com
NE-QA-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com
NE-Database-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com
NE-Support-Service-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com

NE-Build-Release-Engineer-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com
NE-Financial-Services-IT-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com
NE-IT-Managers-Jobs@Yahoogroups.com

This group covers what I call the Greater New England Area – States covered are ME, VT, NH, MA, RI, CT, & the Tri-state area – NY, NJ & PA.

The intent of the group is 2 fold – Ist and foremost I started this group to help people locate new opportunities and act as a forum for the surrounding process. This means networking, job leads, job postings, contacts, articles on anything that may be useful to people in search mode, new company funding etc.

Secondly, as you know I own my own company and specialize in Recruiting & Search focused on the High Technology related areas and companies. I also use this group as an additional means of sourcing candidates for positions that I am trying to help clients fill. This means that any assignments that I am working on I post to the group, looking for candidates or referrals that may be interested in the position.

The group is moderated, meaning nothing gets posted with out me approving it. This allows me to monitor all postings to make sure they are on topic and also to eliminate any SPAM. I spend a considerable amount of time managing this group to try and make it useful to the members.

General Guidelines:

· No Attachments are allowed – Avoids New Virus's sneaking thru
· Stay on Topic – Job & networking related information
· No Politics
· No commercials or SPAM – A short company blip, as part of your signature is fine.
· No resume posting on the message board. It is ok to post an elevator speech and that you are looking for an opportunity as long as it does not exceed a paragraph or so.
· No bashing of members or anything else that does not show respect to individual members
· Please include a one or two word description at the beginning of the subject line of your email to identify the type of posting:

Examples:

Information
Article
Introduction
Assistance Needed
Contact Needed
Company Information
New Job
Etc.

I am not going to enforce any kind of rigid rules here as I want members to be able to post without a great deal of hassle. Use your common sense and it should be fine.

If you are not sure if something is suitable for posting send it to me for review at GaryWright@Prodigy.Net

Job Posting Guidelines:

· Please limit postings to no more then 5 per day

· Full Time or Contracting positions in the following states are allowed:

ME, VT, NH, MA, RI, CT, NY, NJ, & PA

· Additionally, it is all right to state NE, New England, East Coast, North East or Any State in your job posting, if it includes the states above.

· Positions offering Relocation for any state can be posted. Must indicate in subject line that position offers Relocation.

· The Subject Line of the message must contain at a minimum the following:

Ø Posting Content – New Job, Reposted Job, Revised Job, Job Cancellation
Ø Job Title
Ø Job Location – City & State or NE, New England, North East, or Any State
Ø Relocation if position offers if outside of Greater NE

· If job allows for relocation, state this in the subject line of message

· Reposts will be limited to once per week

· If you have a need to post several jobs on a given day, I suggest that you create a summary list with a link to each specific job to the web site where the job description is located.

I have tried to make these guidelines as simple as possible to follow and I alone with choose to enforce the rules. I do not want it to be difficult to post and I would rather have good leads or information posted as opposed to being the network police.

Lastly, always feel free to give me your comments or suggestions regarding the group.

Thank you for your membership, as it is appreciated.

If interested and qualified please contact the recruiter directly.  I do not know this recruiter - Ozzie

 

 

Good Afternoon:

 

Given the current job market conditions these days it seems like everyone is looking for a new job or knows someone who is looking. The purpose of this email is not to distract you too much from your daily activities, but it is to offer you the opportunity to look at a job we are looking to fill for one of our clients in Manhattan. Even if you aren't looking maybe you can pass this along to your friends that may be looking? Our client is in the market for an IP Telephony/ Project Manager experience.

 

Below is a description:

 

Project Management Support start date ASAP will last 3-12 months contract will be renewed every 90 days

 

Function:

 

The following skills are required as part of the Sustaining Engineering Project Management Services:

Sustaining Engineering Project Management:

So if you haven't erased me at this point, you are probably wondering how the heck I have your email address. Well after being a recruiter for 8 years and having access to many databases including the job boards, I have picked up email addresses and other contact information on candidates that I feel are excellent. As you can imagine there are a lot of contacts I have built up over the years.

 

Feel free to email me back with your resume if you are interested that way I have it in front of me when we speak. If you are not interested but know of someone who may be interested you are more then welcome to forward on this email or my contact information to your friends.

 

Sincerely,
