Congratulations to the graduates of 2009! I applaud you for completing four demanding years of partying in college and wish you well as you enter the “real world.” Trouble is, the “real world” is not all too inviting right now; I’m sure many of you are even having a hard time securing an interview for a decent job… by no fault of your own!

Do not fret. When one door closes, ten more open up.

With all of today’s modern technology, a majority of those ten doors will probably be found through one of the many online professional and career resources (e.g., Monster.com). Fortunately for you, the next generation of online and virtual interaction makes this search even easier… now presenting the world of Professional Networking! In recent years, websites like LinkedIn, Plaxo and Naymz have attracted hoards of users excited by the prospect of pulling together all of their personal and professional contacts in one central source and even reconnecting with long-lost childhood friends or college roommates. As time passes, users demand more. Once satisfied by building a network of hundreds of “friends” or “contacts,” users quickly get turned off by the static nature of many of these sites and look for more dynamic alternatives.

OySite.com, one of the newest professional networking websites, builds on the basic functions described above by equipping its users with a wide range of online, digital tools to creatively and effectively promote themselves and their businesses (or colleges). Imagine publicizing a targeted press release informing mass audiences of a product launch or key business development, sharing an instructional video or commercial-grade advertisement with potential clients, finding the perfect job anywhere around the world or recruiting the top talent you need to take your business to the next level… all of this is possible today on OySite.com, completely free of charge. There is no better place for a college graduate to jumpstart his/her career, especially during a recession like the current one. Seeing that traditional channels to find jobs have failed many recent graduates, these same aspiring professionals should turn to a source that better suits their generation, that integrates technology and multimedia with the basics of communication and first impressions, that enables individuals to dictate their own future and control the image they represent online and in person… OySite.com.
