Three Bayt.com Tips You’re Not Using
With over 14.5 million users and the launch of its popular professional platform, Bayt.com Specialties, Bayt.com has become the place to be for anyone looking to build a professional network. And while there are some tips to effectively use the site that most people should know – such as using a polished profile picture, and making sure your profile is 100% complete – there are a few other things you could be doing to ensure that you get the most from Bayt.com. Here are three tips that you might not have thought of: 1. Make sure your profile is public. While you might not want people to know every little step you take online, you also don’t want them to miss you altogether either. If you are actively seeking employment or networking opportunities, your Bayt.com profile should be publicly visible to everyone. A potential employer may actually choose to connect with you after seeing your public profile on Bayt.com. According to the Bayt.com ‘Personal Branding in the Middle East and North Africa’ poll, September 2013, 92% of MENA professionals believe that a public profile can help you get more interviews and grow in your career. 2. Get a recommendation whenever possible. Recruiters and hiring managers do read recommendations and take them into account. According to the Bayt.com “Modern Job Search in the MENA” poll, November 2013, 62% of employers in the MENA region say that online recommendations and endorsements are ‘very important’ when they make a hiring decision. Bayt.com makes it easy to click and assign a skill to a connection. Have your connections write thoughtful recommendations with details about the nature of the work you’ve done or your expertise is a great way for them to vouch for your skill set. It’s best to have recommendations from a boss, a colleague and a subordinate, to give readers a sense of how you work at all levels. 3. Join the conversation on Bayt.com Specialties.
