Summary Sunday Inspiring Twitter Chats and More

Summary Sunday Inspiring Twitter Chats and More Certain days we find ourselves more inspired, motivated, charged, jazzed, energizedyou know the feeling right?   Can you replicate those scenarios?   Maybe not exactly, but many times, Ive found that because I put myself out there (attended an event, participated in something, met with someone), Ive stumbled onto something or someone thats energized me.   Thats what I am talking about, step out!   Re-create opportunities for yourself to be exposed to new ideas or like-minded thinkers! This week I came across #HFchat! (Fridays from 12-1 pm EST) HF stands for HireFriday, an initiative started by @HRMargo otherwise known as Margo Rose. To learn more about HireFriday, please read Margos post! The   co-moderators of #hfchat also include @tombolt @AvidCareerist. As I watched the stream of tweets, I was impressed by three things, the people, the quality of the content and the subject matter- tweet critiques/twitter profiles!   I couldnt help but follow what was going on, then, I had to share what I thought to be interesting thoughts of others, then, I had to chime in my own two cents.   This is a transcript of what was discussed so that you can read it at your leisure.   If you are looking for smart people to follow on Twitter, follow the folks who participated here.   The other thing I hope you notice is that opinions differ.   Thats always a good thing, it gets you thinking and asking questions!   (Because you may not click through on the link above, here is a teaser of the transcript from this weeks #hfchat courtesy of @animal) If you are tempted/interested to see what happens during a Twitter chat, your next great opportunity is Monday, December 6th from 8-10 EST called Mega Job Hunt Chat! 6 job search related chats combine into one huge event!   Just follow #megajobhuntchat.
