Social Networking Tip

It's a small thing really but it happens quite a bit. If you would like to be invited to join someone's LinkedIn or Facebook or another site, don't just use the template given. State how you know the person. For example, "Hello Nancy, I was in your class last night. I was the person with the question about resume templates. I'd like to join your LinkedIn Network."
I am surprised how many of those anonymous notes I see. I don't respond to them because I don't know the person. Just a quick note is all that is needed.
Happy Halloween all
