Free Career Resources for Libraries from Glassdoor.com

From the Post:

Glassdoor.com is a career and workplace community where anyone can find and anonymously share salary details about specific jobs for specific employers or company and interview reviews describing life on the inside of an employer-all for free. What sets it apart is that all the information comes from the people who know these companies best- either the employees who work there or the candidates who have interviewed there.

Normally, Glassdoor.com requires users to post their own anonymous information to gain free access, but through its Library Partnership Program, [Our emphasis] it now offers library patrons and students free access without having to post anything. As an added benefit, once a library has added
Glassdoor.com as a free resource, the company will send the library free Glassdoor.com bookmarks that provide tips for patrons on how to use Glassdoor.com as part of their job searches. [Our Emphasis] Libraries can add Glassdoor.com either as an online database or as an internet link.

Instructions are available at:
www.glassdoor.com/about/forLibraries_input.htm.

Career centers may request similar free access. Students with an .edu email address may also request individual free access without having to post anything by sending an email to students@glassdoor.com

Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?


Click to view the article Alacra Compliance adds managerial oversight
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

Alacra Compliance saves time by aggregating information from both free and fee-based sources and enabling users to conduct an accurate federated search across these sources (coined “simultaneous search” by Alacra).
