Hello! Someone recently asked me if Khoros has a job description for a Community Manager role. Community Management is a role and a practice and there can be lots of definitions of a community manager as well as levels of experience. I want to make sure I provide resources that will cover the range. If you have hired a Community Manager recently, or are looking and saw a great one, can you share those here? There are a couple of useful resources on the subject. There's How to Write an Exceptional Community Manager Job Description on CMX and The Community Roundtable has Understanding Community Roles and Responsibilities in 2020.

Listen, I’m not an expert in job searching so I'm going to guide you to some experts. Indeed helps people find jobs all day, every day, even on weekends and holidays. They have written a great Essential Job Search Guide on how to get yourself set up for success. Even though I am not an expert, I have found a few jobs in my time. Here's what has worked for me: Tailor your resume to the job you want. What does this mean? Refine! You don’t need to list everything you have ever done in a job. Recruiters often look at your resume for 8 seconds. Practice looking at your resume for only 8 seconds. What will people learn about you in that time? Make sure it’s the right stuff. Network. Connect and have virtual coffee with your peers, former managers, people who work at the company you’d be interested in working for. Set up time that’s convenient for them. Make it as easy as possible for them to meet with you. And then send them a thank you note after you meet.  Be bold! I have had coffee with lots of people who have reached out to me through a loose network and I appreciate the boldness. It shows me the people are willing to work for what they want.  What has worked for you? Please share your best practices. ... View more
