hey I thought it was good :)

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 07:27 PM (GMT -05:00)

its a long shot question lol

Dan Rockwell said:

turk is probably a bad example considering tasks are so cheap, but you wonder on other sites, farming your capabilities out on odesk etc

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 07:22 PM (GMT -05:00)

In the downward job trend do you think crowdsourcing sites like mechanical turk, 99designs, etc will go up in use? Granted those are specific to set job capabilities but in general.. an onward trend?

Sean Ammirati said:

Nov 10, 07:18 PM (GMT -05:00)

any more questions?

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 07:15 PM (GMT -05:00)

I like the comment on researching your job target. I don't think people do this enough.

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 07:14 PM (GMT -05:00)

good answer :)

Sean Ammirati said:

Nov 10, 07:13 PM (GMT -05:00)

@charlie, agree - it helps to have your work background to be fair :)

@dan... Lots of anecdotes. When I quit my last job and announced it on my blog, I had 25 job offers. :)

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 07:11 PM (GMT -05:00)

Are there any real patterns or evidence that support- having a blog or in the social network space actually helps you or hinders you?

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 07:10 PM (GMT -05:00)

Are degree's still a benchmark requirement or is it experience? Has this changed at all?

Sean Ammirati said:

Nov 10, 07:10 PM (GMT -05:00)

Marshall hit your last one, but feel free to type a question in the chat as well if you are sans mic

Doug Coleman said:

Just lost my audio

Doug Coleman said:

I agree with Marshall. i see that some of these companies that are laying people off are actually getting funds and have favorable outlooks.

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 06:51 PM (GMT -05:00)

Np, just thoughts coming up as im listening here :)

Sean Ammirati said:

Nov 10, 06:48 PM (GMT -05:00)

@ Dan - I'll pull this in a moment

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 06:47 PM (GMT -05:00)

In the past 12 months weve seen a rise in blogs having job boards, so im curious if theres new trends emerging out of this jobless trend, whats next etc...

Dan Rockwell said:

Nov 10, 06:46 PM (GMT -05:00)

You see any niche jobs forming up out of the job seeking environment? Specialists that help you hone your social media image or, help you research (social media powered job search) or specialists to help you craft your linkedin image etc?
