Douglas E. Welch Founder, CareerCamp International WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT CAREERCAMP? “I learned more how to refine my resume, my cover letter — more about what recruiters are looking for — to help me be recognized more in the job market. This was the greatest experience. It was amazing!” – Kellie H. “I had a great time today. It was a lot of fun and I learned a lot. Somebody mentioned that one of the goals here today was to motivate you to get out there and I think they definitely succeeded. I feel real confident and I am really happy I came today.” – Justin B. “I think the concept of this event was phenomenal. I have attended conferences and workshops and entrepreneurial sessions and I would say, by far, this was probably one of the best I have ever attended.” – Donna J. “Being out of work seems to be part of modern life that we are experiencing. What I heard today form several people being outside of ourselves helps us to see the positive side of living. When we help others, we are actually, in the end, helping ourselves. The energy that I have witnessed today convinces me that there is greatness in the group of people who came her to learn the tools to overcome.” – Dick C.

Building the career you deserve means becoming both director and promoter of it–No one cares as much about your career as you do. This means taking the lead in ‘Telling people what you do and how you do it!” Social media provides the tools needed to develop the jobs and projects that make one’s career unique and fulfilling.

This panel will give practical information about how to use social media to build the career you desire. We’ll talk not only about the “why” of social media, but also about “how” it can, and should, be used, so that you are in control of all aspects of your career.

Now that I have scheduled our big trip to visit my wife’s family in Sicily, I am assured that I will be in town for the second edition of CareerCampSCV on July 16, 2011 in Santa Clarita, California. The College of the Canyons University Center will be hosting us once again.

I signed up for my free registration today and it made me think about what I might present this time. Two ideas came to mind and I might do both of them over the course of the day.

1. Social Media/New Media Breakout Session

Our discussion last year was one of my favorite sessions last year, so I plan on hosting it again in 2011. This will be a free-wheeling, open discussion of all the ways the careers and social media interact. We’ll talk Facebook, Twitter, blogging, podcasting and more.

2. Find your first career…and your next and your next

When you are first looking for a career, or looking for a new one, we tend to focus on jobs — which job should I take, do I have the skills for this job, etc. You should be asking more career-related questions though like, do I enjoy doing this type of work? Where might this career lead me in 5 years? Are my needs changing when it comes to my work?

This talk will build on the Career Compass talk I gave last year, but you need not have attended that talk. I will tie it all together with some new thoughts I have had over the last year.

I hope to see you at this year’s CareerCampSCV. If you are outside the Southern California area, consider hosting your own CareerCamp. I can assist you in planning and organization. See CareerCampInternational.com for more information
