For the freelancing web worker, it'll be like a simple video that talks about what makes you different, shows photos or screenshots of your work or where they can find it, etc. Sorry that I didn't make that clear.

I'm in the process of recruiting a veterinarian and have actually found some great prospects and advisors on LinkedIn -- most of whom only have a dozen or so connections, as if they signed up not knowing what to do or what to expect! By contrast, I have had more people find me through my dinky writing Web site and then peruse my LinkedIn profile than the reverse.

Paper resumes are far from dead, nor is the time-consuming need to network and build relationships, sometimes (still) a face-to-face enterprise conducted offline and in real time. However, I have been adding Social Media, though perhaps not as quickly as some, as I learn how to use it. (to date I have LinkedIn and Facebook profiles, a webpage, a blog, and some selective uploads of my full resume). I don't like following hard "rules" about adopting these things any more than I want to make any such rules, though. So much depends on your industry, your target audience and (no small thing) your/my own comfort level and proficiency in using these tools.

Two are realmatch.com and jobfox.com. I like the idea of taking the resume out of the initial process where a recruiter finds the suspect. After the suspect is identifiied, I think its ok to look at resumes. There are some new job matching technologies that no longer use resumes at all. Two are realmatch.com and jobfox.com.
