Time Management and Social Media

So something I have learned recently from my I Wear Your Shirt Video Resume process is that time management is key. As I have engrossed myself within this social media campaign, I have realized how much time can be spent online again.

I joked on http://www.iwearyourshirt.com today that I haven't gotten angry birds yet because I would become addicted to it.  I think that it's easily to be distracted from life right now.  Between what we have outside of the computer as well as what you are expected to keep up with online as well.

I have become somewhat addicted to growing my twitter recently.  This has come because of the video resume and I feel that this is a great way to reach people to share my resume.  However it's easy to lose grip with life with all of the sharing and watching the video.  You instead become to immortalize yourself.  So you have to step back and take some time off.

I have found that I actually do a better job with classes.  I think this is the case because I want both things so bad I don't want to mess anything up.  I need to keep my scholarship but I would love the http://iwearyourshirt.com/hiring/application/7865/seth-alan-fendley job as well.

Status Update

Hey guys thanks for what you've done, we have reach 100 comments, however there are at least 400 of you who have yet to reply, if all 400 of you replied then my resume would be looking pretty fly. If the ones of you could reply as well as share the link on Facebook that would be even more cool.

Guys my dad sent out an email to his entire contacts list (somewhere around 150) and we have had a nearly 20% reply rate out of that (and they haven't stopped coming yet). We have barely reached 15% of you guys, I have faith that you guys will out do the contact list that my dad has, cause you guys are my personal contact list. 

Please Support with comments! 

Here is a thank you video as well as some idea's lining out what the weekend push is going to look like!

Thanks for the continued support! This is my dream job! Everything you guys can do will help!

Remember if you have already voted you can invite your friends to the event, you can rate the video each day, post the link onto your wall ect.

Get the Word Out!

Hey guys,

So here's the deal, for the fifty or so of you who have commented on the video thanks so much, however there is more you can do!

1.  We can rate the video each day.  The more we rate it, the better it "looks".  Sorry I didn't tell you this earlier, I missed it in reading the requirements.

2.  The two guys who currently wear shirts are the ones picking, they are watching (really I've talked with Jason on twitter and live chat).  So they are watching how much everyone is promoting.  If they see you guys promoting the video, then I have more of an opportunity to get the job.

3.  If you haven't already commented, then please do!  The most comments don't win it, however it has a REALLY LARGE factor in them selecting the person.

4.  So please, comment if you haven't already.  Go to the site and click on the "recommend on Facebook" or "Retweet" buttons, this gets the resume out further!

5.  This entire job is about showing my social media reach, you guys are my social media reach.  This is literally my dream job currently, so you would have a hand in helping me get to this point then I would be overjoyed.

Thanks everyone for your help!

I Wear Your Shirt Application Thoughts

So I have submitted a video resume.

I have begun a social media campaign.

What now? 

Well here are a few more thoughts on my application.

It's hard to say everything you enjoy about a job in less than 3 minutes! @iwearyourshirt

I mean you can wear a shirt anywhere! At pretty much anytime!  Social media has the same effect as well.

So this weekend my debate partner and I won a novice debate tournament.  This means more exposure through debate and individual events (more places to promote shirts).  

Also as I have stated to a lot of people, I love the idea of having a job in social media.  I love the idea of having the opportunity to go to conferences about social media, and network with people learning about this stuff.

This is the direction that I really feel my career going in and I'm really excited to see if I can secure this job.  

Tomorrow I will blog about thoughts I had from the debate tournament which should be exciting.
