An award for the quintessential college, career, and job sites.
Quintessential Careers honors one career or job site each issue of
QuintZine
with the Quintessential Careers Site Award in recognition of
quintessential efforts in helping job-seekers.
In our two special-feature articles this issue, we mention "Hansen's Online Social-Media"
Formula," which recommends the minimum collection of social-media sites a careerist
needs to belong to to have an effective online presence. Niche networking sites are part of
this list. But how can you find a niche networking site in your field?
A great place to start is Ning, a social platform for the world's interests and passions online, boasting
more than 1.8 million Ning Networks and 39 million registered users. If you can't find a social-network
in your niche on Ning, you can always start your own.
Ning offers an easy-to-use service that allows people to join and create Ning Networks. Millions of people
every day are coming together across Ning to explore and express their interests, discover new passions,
and meet new people around shared pursuits.
