Using Social Networking Sites to Find a Job


Having secured her own first job recently, Patty Meissner looks at young
people’s use of social networking when looking for work.
In many countries, a growing number of people in their twenties are turning to
social media in the hope of finding work. Services like the social networking
site Twitter and the professional networking site Linkedln offer the chance for
more direct contact with would-be employers than has previously been the case.
But with greater access comes a greater chance to make mistakes.
Take the case of a young jobseeker in the US who contacted a senior marketing
executive via Linkedln. The marketing executive in question had an impressive
list of influential people in her contact list; people whom the young jobseeker
felt could help him land a job. The marketing executive, however, had other
ideas. Indignant at the suggestion that she would willingly share a list of
contacts painstakingly built up over many years with a complete stranger who’d
done nothing to deserve such an opportunity, she not only rejected his contact
request, but sent a vicious and heavily sarcastic rejection note that has since
gone viral. Those who saw the note online were appalled, and the sender
probably now regrets the tone of her note, if not the message it conveyed. But if
the incident makes young people think more carefully about how they use social
media in a professional capacity, she may have actually ended up doing them a
favour. She has drawn attention to an unfortunate truth. Social media is a
potentially dangerous tool for job hunters who don’t know how to use it. And a
worrying number are getting it wrong.
There’s a horrible irony here, because in many countries social networking sites
like Facebook and Twitter have been the bread and butter of twenty-
somethings’ social lives for years. When my generation were teenagers, social

1
Reading Writing 4 – 2021

media was our escape from the prying eyes of parents and teachers. It was a
cyber extension of the playground pecking order – a place to impress, to
embellish and experiment. It was a world based largely on fantasy. You could
find yourself in a three-hour conversation with someone online and then
completely ignore them at school. With careful picture/song selection for your
Facebook page, you could become a completely different and much more
intriguing person overnight. And if you couldn’t be bothered with conversation,
‘poking’ people on Facebook was a legitimate alternative.
However, when it comes to using social media for professional networking, our
very knowledge and experience of sites like Facebook may actually be a
hindrance. Using social media in a professional capacity is a completely
different ball game, but for some twenty-somethings, the division is not clear
cut. We first earned our online presence by being bold and over-confident,
which could explain why some of us still come across like this. Just because a
lot of people ‘liked’ your posts on Facebook, it doesn’t mean you’ll be able to
use Linkedln to show potential employers that you’re someone worth
employing. We need to realise that what we learned about social networking as
teenagers no longer applies, and we must live up to employers’ standards if we
want to get on in the world of work.
One of the most common complaints from employers regarding young
jobseekers on professional networking sites is that they’re over-familiar in their
form of address, and appear arrogant. This serves to perpetuate older
generations’ perceptions of us as an ‘entitled generation’. In fact, we’re very far
from this; in many countries we’re increasingly desperate about finding
employment, which is why many of us are turning to social media in the first
place. This impression of arrogance hurts the employment prospects of young
people who – despite their communication errors – actually possess the skills
and drive to become a valuable part of the workforce.
So what’s the right way to contact someone on a professional networking site?
Firstly, explain clearly who you are, and let the person you’re writing to know
what’s in it for them – maybe you could offer to do a piece of research for them,
or assist in some other way. This approach gives you a much better chance of
getting a useful reply. Refrain from sending impersonal, blanket emails, and
keep the tone humble if you want to avoid leaving a sour taste in the recipient’s
mouth. Remember – social media can be a great way to make useful contacts,
but it needs careful handling if you don’t want the door slammed in your face.

Article 2: The impact of communications in


the economic growth and development of
Kenya
Source: http://erepository.uonbi.ac.ke/handle/11295/44345
In the current global economy, the ability of the communications sector to
catalyze the process of economic growth and development requires to be
examined in greater detail. In recognition of the recent world-wide investments
in communications, quantifying the impact of communications in economic
growth and development continues to attract greater focus.
In many developing economies, investment data is lacking regarding this
subject hence economic analysts have greatly relied on the International
Telecommunications Union (ITU) practice of using main telephone lines to
determine the stock of communications capital. However, the accuracy of this
measure has not been put to careful scrutiny ( được xem xét kỹ lưỡng ).
This study examines the impact of communications on economic growth and
development of Kenya by use of time series where employment rates in
communications industry will be used as a proxy for human capital, volume of
calls/SMS as a proxy for integration into the world economy and gross revenues
as a proxy for investment. The study captures the impact of communications on
economic growth and development and data will be gathered for the period
ranging from 1999 - 2012.

Reading Writing 4 – 2021

The most widely used communication method is telecommunication. This mode


of communication can take various forms, mainly: vojce telephony (mobile,
wireline & wireless) and data communication. Radio communication (including
broadcasting) is also greatly used while communication through postal/courier
methods has been seen to be at the minimum. This proposal seeks to study the
impact of communications (with special emphasis on mobile voice telephony
and data communication) in the economic growth and development of Kenya.
The paper focuses on at least the ~past 10 years (1999 - 2012), covering the
whole period that mobile (wireless) communication has been in place and lay
emphasis in Nairobi. Preliminary survey indicates that Kenya has experienced
tremendous growth in the communications sector which has in turn contributed
to its overall economic growth and development. This paper investigates
communications and assesses its impact on economic growth and development
over the period 1999 - 2012. The mobile phone - voice and data (including
SMS) communications growth rates - which are used to represent human capital
efficiency is expected to impact positively on economic growth and
development. On the other hand, it is predicted that the volume of 'postal and
courier transactions ( giao dịch bưu chính và chuyển phát nhanh) would have a
positive but relatively less significant effect on economic growth-and
development. Further analysis is expected to reveal that Kenya's use of radio
and internet communications has been steadily on the increase hence impacting
positively on its economic growth and development

Article 3: Communicating Styles and


Conflict

Reading Writing 4 – 2021

As far back as Hippocrates’ time (460-370B.C.),  people have tried to


understand other people by characterizing them according to personality type or
temperament. Hippocrates believed there were four different body fluids that
influenced four basic types of temperament. His work was further developed
500 years later by Galen. These days there are any number of self-assessment
tools that relate to the basic descriptions developed by Galen, although we no
longer believe the source to be the types of body fluid that dominate our
systems.

The values in self-assessments that help determine personality style. Learning


styles, communication styles, conflict-handling styles, or other aspects of
individuals is that they help depersonalize conflict in interpersonal relationships.
The depersonalization occurs when you realize that others aren’t trying to be
difficult, but they need different or more information than you do. They’re not
intending to be rude: they are so focused on the task they forget about greeting
people. They would like to work faster but not at the risk of damaging the
relationships needed to get the job done. They understand there is a job to do.
But it can only be done right with the appropriate information, which takes time
to collect. When used appropriately, understanding communication styles can
help resolve conflict on teams. Very rarely are conflicts true personality issues.
Usually, they are issues of style, information needs, or focus.

Hippocrates and later Galen determined there were four basic temperaments:
sanguine, phlegmatic, melancholic and choleric. These descriptions were
developed centuries ago and are still somewhat apt, although you could update
the wording. In today’s world, they translate into the four fairly common
communication styles described below:

The sanguine person would be the expressive or spirited style of


communication. These people speak in pictures. They invest a lot of emotion
and energy in their communication and often speak quickly. Putting their whole
body into it. They are easily sidetracked onto a story that may or may not
illustrate the point they are trying to make. Because of their enthusiasm, they
are great team motivators. They are concerned about people and relationships.
Their high levels of energy can come on strong at times and their focus is
usually on the bigger picture, which means they sometimes miss the details or
the proper order of things. These people find conflict or differences of opinion
invigorating and love to engage in a spirited discussion. They love change and

12
Reading Writing 4 – 2021

are constantly looking for new and exciting adventures.

Tile phlegmatic person - cool and persevering - translates into the technical or
systematic communication style. This style of communication is focused on
facts and technical details. Phlegmatic people have an orderly methodical way
of approaching tasks, and their focus is very much on the task, not on the
people, emotions, or concerns that the task may evoke. The focus is also more
on the details necessary to accomplish a task. Sometimes the details overwhelm
the big picture and focus needs to be brought back to the context of the task.
People with this style think the facts should speak for themselves, and they are
not as comfortable with conflict. They need time to adapt to change and need to
understand both the logic of it and the steps involved.

A tile melancholic person who is soft hearted and oriented toward doing things
for others translates into the considerate or sympathetic communication style. A
person with this communication style is focused on people and relationships.
They are good listeners and do things for other people-sometimes to the
detriment of getting things done for themselves. They want to solicit everyone’s
opinion and make sure everyone is comfortable with whatever is required to get
the job done. At times this focus on others can distract from the task at hand.
Because they are so concerned with the needs of others and smoothing over
issues, they do not like conflict. They believe that change threatens the status
quo and tends to make people feel uneasy, so people with this communication
style, like phlegmatic people, need time to consider the changes in order to
adapt to them.

The choleric temperament translates into the bold or direct style of


communication. People with this style are brief in their communication - the
fewer words the better. They are big picture thinkers and love to be involved in
many things at once. They are focused on tasks and outcomes and often forget
that the people involved in carrying out the tasks have needs. They don’t do
detail work easily and as a result, can often underestimate how much time it
takes to achieve the task. Because they are so direct, they often seem forceful
and can be very intimidating to others. They usually would welcome someone
challenging them. But most other styles are afraid to do so. They also thrive on
change, the more the better.

13
Reading Writing 4 – 2021

A well-functioning team should have all of these communication styles for true
effectiveness. All teams need to focus on the task, and they need to take care of
relationships in order to achieve those tasks. They need the big picture
perspective or the context of their work, and they need the details to be
identified and taken care of for success. We all have aspects of each style within
us. Some of us can easily move from one style to another and adapt our style to
the needs of the situation at hand-whether the focus is on tasks or relationships.
For others, a dominant style is very evident, and it is more challenging to see
the situation from the perspective of another style. The work environment can
influence communication styles either by the type of work that is required or by
the predominance of one style reflected in that environment. Some people use
one style at work and another at home.

The good news about communication styles is that we have the ability to
develop flexibility in our styles. The greater the flexibility we have, the more
skilled we usually are at handling possible and actual conflicts. Usually, it has
to be relevant to us to do so, either because we think it is important or because
there are incentives in our environment to encourage it. The key is that we have
to want to become flexible with our communication style. As Henry Ford said,
“Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right!”
