My research topic is the effects of social media on a job search. I always end up in a discussion with my parents about how applying for jobs was so much different when they were younger. It's an interesting topic for me because so many of my friends are landing jobs through LinkedIn or Facebook and I actually got my job by stopping into the business, handing the owner my resume and shaking her hand. My approach to this topic will include researching the most common platforms where people are finding jobs and then analyzing how each vehicle is a positive or negative factor when it comes to a job search.
Blog: Next New
The next new media I would like to see is a technology, sort of like headphones, that allow users to hear any language as their own language. Basically, if someone is speaking to me in Spanish, I would hear them in English as long as I'm wearing the headphones. I want to do a lot of traveling after college, so a device like this would be a great form of new media. This is a technology that would allow me to communicate with anyone, anywhere. Another thing I would like to see is a brand new Apple watch that literally does it all. I'd like to see the Apple watch have capabilities that no one would ever imagine. How great would it be if our Apple watch could track our calorie intake without us entering it in on our phone? Or how convenient would it be if it tracked weight without having to ever step on a scale? I think the Apple watch is very advanced in the market of fitness tracking, but in the future I hope to see it hold these capabilities that don't currently exist.
