Take a look at what Founder of Sheskey Learning Solutions and educator in Oconee County Schools has to say about his 
upcoming participation in Clemson NetworkBash:
How has social media benefited you personally in your professional endeavors?
The use of Twitter and the Tweetdeck application has allowed me to connect with other professionals in my field and expanding fields that I am interested in. It allows you to view and participate in authentic conversations. If a professional in your area of interest is using Twitter as a social media tool for their business you probably want to connect with them.
What are you looking forward to most about the Networkbash! event on November 4th?
Connecting with professionals outside the area of education. We are all facing similar issues with the economy, technology and the fast pace of change in the world.
Come to my session and I guarantee that it will be an interactive and dynamic experience that is different than what you expect!
What is the best advice you can give to current students about getting a jump start on their career goals?
Study and research in detail the particular fields you are interested in. Do not hesitate to use your social media skills to connect with people. The use of social media for exploration of job fields is a valuable skill that did not even exist a few years ago. I am a digital immigrant and I am making the modern networking applications work for me!
Bill Sheskey will be speaking on the value of networking through face-to-face contact at NetworkBash on November 4th from 4:15-4:45pm in the Hendrix Center.
