Brazen Careerist

Potential employers have myriad ways to uncover info about
your history, like querying former bosses, contacting
clients you've worked with, and using your Facebook page to
discover that you poke way too many Europeans. Changing at
least the way you impress employers online, Brazen Careerist.

Launched by a triumvirate of social networking maestros, BC
lets you post resumes, share contacts/info, and exchange
career and entrepreneurial ideas with like-minded
job-seekers and industry groups, all in the hopes of
becoming a more reliable vetting resource than sites like
Facebook for employers to dig up info about potential
"Next-Generation Professionals", and yep, looks like Lavar
Burton is gonna be stealing yet another job from you. To get
started, set up an openly accessible profile with a resume,
photo, interests, goals, and optional links to your LinkedIn
and (non-incriminating) personal blog, Twitter feed, and
Facebook pages; next, browse around to find other users in
your industry who you'd like to connect with, and "Fan" them
to receive their latest site activity, helping you get tips
on things like emerging industries and new job
opportunities, while comparing other people's ambitious
career goals against yours of "Having A Seven-some in
Toronto". In much the way you joined the glee club to look
good for colleges, Brazen offers ample opportunities to
appear engaged to potential employers, mainly by joining
groups and/or posting feedback/thoughts in their "chatter"
forums; groups include general/hyper-specific careers
(Architecture, Film...Digital Anthropology), interests
(coffee, medium format photography...happiness), and
locations, plus you can create your own group, because you
never know when that corporate headhunter might also love
tournament double-dutch.

Brazen also recommends joining an "Ask A Coach" group,
which're set up to connect aspiring professionals with
career-related inquiries like resume layout questions and
how to handle difficult coworkers, but unfortunately, not
why the hell Cristiano won't poke your ass back.

Show them you actually deserve a job, at:
