1 Update Profile

Your social media profiles are the cornerstone of your online presence. After a layoff, take the time to update your LinkedIn profile with your latest skills and experiences. Make sure your profile is complete with a professional photo, a compelling summary, and detailed descriptions of your previous roles. Highlight any safety certifications or training you've received, as workplace safety is a valuable skill across various industries. Use keywords related to your field and the roles you're seeking to improve your visibility in search results.

2 Network Online

Networking is a critical component of any job search. Use social media to connect with former colleagues, industry peers, and professionals in the companies you're interested in. Engage in conversations by commenting on posts and sharing relevant content. Join LinkedIn groups or Twitter chats related to your industry to establish yourself as a knowledgeable and active participant. Remember, it's not just about making connections; it's about maintaining those relationships and helping others whenever possible.

For me LinkedIn is the best platform for networking in a professional way. It has lots of options that distinguish LinkedIn from other more popular social medias like Facebook or Instagram

3 Share Expertise

Establish yourself as an expert in your field by sharing content that reflects your knowledge and skills in workplace safety. Write articles or blog posts about best practices, lessons learned, or emerging trends in safety management. Share these on LinkedIn and other platforms to demonstrate your commitment to the field and to provide value to your network. Engaging with others' content and contributing to discussions can also position you as a thought leader and catch the attention of potential employers.

If you've done something special or earned some certification that might boost you up at your job or attract employers, you have to present it to others on your professional social media! This is not a show-off or flexing, it's called presenting!

4 Research Employers

Social media is not only for networking and sharing content; it's also a valuable research tool. Follow companies you're interested in on platforms like LinkedIn and Twitter to stay informed about their latest news, culture, and job openings. Understanding a company's approach to workplace safety can give you an edge in your application and interview process. Use this information to tailor your application and to ask informed questions during interviews.

5 Engage Tactfully

While being active on social media is beneficial, it's important to engage tactfully. Always maintain professionalism in your interactions and be mindful of the content you share. If discussing your layoff, focus on the positive aspects, such as what you've learned or how you're looking forward to new opportunities. Avoid negative comments about former employers, as these can be seen by potential new employers and may impact their perception of you.

The best option to do if you need to boost your job search using social media after a layoff is to engage tactfully. "Your network is your networth". You don't know who you will meet on a social media platform that will help you. Always maintain professionalism in your conversation and be mindful of what you post/share. If you are in a circle discussing about your layoff. You should focus on the positive aspects and avoid the negative comments about your former employers. Your 6 can be my 9. Different people with different perception. Do loose an opportunity because of words.

6 Follow Up

Finally, don't forget to follow up with new connections and job applications. If someone has assisted you or provided advice, a thank-you message can go a long way. When applying for jobs, a polite follow-up message on social media can reinforce your interest in the position and keep you top of mind for the hiring manager. Use these interactions to demonstrate your professionalism and enthusiasm for workplace safety and the opportunities ahead.
