The Big 4 Social Media Sites (Part II): Digital Athens Conference


Sharon B. Cohen presenting Career Workshop
Here is Part II of this series. Check out my tips for Google+ and LinkedIn optimization for job seekers!

I've developed Social Media Audit Checklists for the Big 4 sites. I use these custom checklists in conversations with my career coaching clients. During individual sessions, I assist clients with building their personal brand and  increasing traffic on their websites.

As a result of my work, I was invited as a guest speaker at the "Digital Athens Technology Conference" in Athens GA. One of my audience members - Stephanie Schmidt summarized my workshop content very succinctly on her own blog.
