At TalentEgg, our email address structure is very simple: firstname@talentegg.ca.
This week, our second Ryan has joined TalentEgg..and completely ruined everything.
The good news is that he’s actually great, and he even has an accent (!!)…And he already knows everything about TalentEgg because he’s worked with us before.
So I guess it’s not SO bad.
Without further ado,
Ryan: Welcome to TalentEgg! You are hereby known as RyanB.
Since taking over the supervision of the TalentEgg Twitter account three weeks ago, I really have had a lot of fun trying to come up with creative ways to provide useful content, and generate discussion on the site. In particular, I have enjoyed asking questions of the TalentEgg Twitter community. I am a philosopher at heart, and like Socrates, the patriarch of Western Philosophy, I like popping up and asking people questions.
An idea that I first applied last week is to direct certain questions at specific individuals (three to be exact). One individual being an active TalentEgg follower, the second a careers/business expert, and the third being a generally well known individual. This formula may undergo some tweaking, but I really like the general approach. Posting a question to a Twitter community is kind of like asking a question of a class of students: it works well to call out a couple of people, get them participating, and have them provide the spark that encourages others to join in the conversation. So far this has worked rather well. There has been a strong response to the questions I’ve asked. My hope is to post a question of this sort on a daily, or semi-daily basis, during the work week.
As TalentEgg’s Twitter site continues to grow, I anticipate the development of more and more opportunities for interaction with our followers. At its core, the Twitter site provides a great opportunity for individuals to stay abreast of what is happening on the TalentEgg home site. TalentEgg continues to post great entry-level job opportunities, and a talented host of writers are producing insightful Gen-Y careers articles at the TalentEgg Incubator. I hope you will (or will continue to) follow us on Twitter (@TalentEgg), and check out all that TalentEgg has to offer.
After 2 days of feeling kind of, sort of sick, this afternoon I finally decided to take off and go home to rest.
[This is the embarrassing part]
I’m watching the Family Channel.
And I’m watching a show starring a Dog and a Dragon (as you do, when you’re 25).
And the entire episode is about finding some sort of special egg!
And the egg puns haven’t stopped. Here I provide you with a sample:
“no, the egggggg!!!” (when they lost the special egg)
“we’re too late, it’s sunny side up”
“the egg plan is scrambled, master”
….and then:
“mission eggcomplished”
“that’s all, yolks”
“time to make our eggcit”
I must say, I’m upset that I didn’t think of some of these myself. Look out for these and other egg puns in future e-mail and spoken communications.
‘Til neggst time.
Hello there, egg-folks,
I would just like to introduce myself. My name is Ryan McColeman. I am the new Online Community Manager at TalentEgg. I am a Philosophy graduate from Queen’s University, and am currently enrolled in the Post-Graduate Marketing Management program at Humber College. The Online Community Management position is fulfilling an internship component of my program at Humber.
I am excited about my new role with TalentEgg. I am hoping, through my efforts, to make it is easier for TalentEgg to interact with student/grad job seekers, and for the student/grad job seekers to interact with TalentEgg. One area where my contribution will be visible is the TalentEgg Twitter site (www.twitter/TalentEgg). Starting today, the site will feature links to articles, questions, and comments, all related to recent-grad career issues, and all intended to generate thought and discussion.
As I move through my internship position with TalentEgg, I am going to be blogging about my experiences, on this site. I invite you to return here, and learn of my experiences with this exciting company,
Ryan
