Companies seek employees themselves by using social networks and checking online profiles. To help you to use those features most adequately, this article will provide you with some basic information for a professional online appearance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A New Era: The Online Job Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you finish an academic or vocational education and are you ready to start your professional career? Then you will have to decide for either a classic job application on paper or an online job application. The Social Media Recruiting Report of 2013 shows that online applications are a crucial part of any job application process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is, on one side, the standard form of applying online directly on a company\u2019s website or via email and, on the other side, a broad spectrum of business web portals such as LinkedIn and Xing which gain more and more importance. To learn more about this process and how to make an excellent impression, continue to read the following article.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Online-Apllication-with-Slideshare.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Online-Apllication-with-Slideshare-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5287\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Online-Apllication-with-Slideshare-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Online-Apllication-with-Slideshare-450x299.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Online-Apllication-with-Slideshare-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Online-Apllication-with-Slideshare.jpg 1417w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-_be0e5c-78 .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-_be0e5c-78 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:100%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-_be0e5c-78\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PowerPoint, Slideshare and Co.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new era of the worldwide web offers more and more options to establish different forms of image cultivations. When using a less main stream job application you will emphasize uniqueness and capture an employer\u2019s focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please avoid old and outdated classics such as delivering a job application in a pizza box which will only harm your credibility. A more common technique nowadays is a graphic illustration in PowerPoint or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slideshare.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Slideshare<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PowerPoint is an excellent tool to create a well-structured and creative curriculum. Having created your own CV, you can easily attach it to an email or upload it in Slideshare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a> is another way to share your CV with people all around the world \u2013 a tendency that slowly but surely spreads from the U.S. to many other countries. LinkedIn has more 60 million users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using Slideshare for your CV, you will be able to link it with Xing or LinkedIn but you should be aware that you may complement a job application with such devices but you should not completely substitute its original form. The main focus will still be on your qualifications and your former career.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-_93de9e-cc .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-_93de9e-cc .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:100%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-_93de9e-cc\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Examples in Slideshare<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To get an idea of the whole issue, Slideshare offers many examples of creative CVs. Emiland de Cubber, a French designer, had been looking for a new job and designed company-specified job applications, uploaded them on Slideshare and sent each link to the person concerned of the company he was applying at. The effect: Within a couple of weeks he received a job offer of one of the companies.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/de.slideshare.net\/EmilandDC\/how-i-landed-a-job-with-slideshare\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"636\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/PowerPoint-Job-Application.jpg\" alt=\"PowerPoint Job Application\" class=\"wp-image-5275\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/PowerPoint-Job-Application.jpg 636w, https:\/\/www.presentationload.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/PowerPoint-Job-Application-450x391.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>As well as Chris Ferdinandi who had created numerous well-designed job applications.

You may have encountered plenty of bad examples in your professional life which were overloaded with text or colors were chosen inadequately. Keep in mind the following points to make a sophisticated impression:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Begin with an exceptional slide which draws attention<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure to name all relevant information first and that the CV contains any career successes which are important for the job you are applying for<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not use more than 40 slides<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Combine impressive and stylish graphics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not mix more than two fonts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Focus on content and do not subordinate it to the design of the curriculum vitae<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Want it simple?
