Social Selling can be used to approach your kid’s job search

Martin Brossman and Greg Hyer discuss how parents should get involved with jump starting their kid’s career and teach them about Social Selling. While there’s perspective will be different, it’s important to understand how they see the world. Here are a few items they discuss and you should ask as you help your kids.

• Are they are getting real world experience?
• Are they are building their LinkedIn profile?
• Is the school the best for applying real world learning?
• Are you creating content that attracts potential employers?
• Have you prepared your kids for entering the job market?
• Have you advised them on their path choices?
