In this episode of the Career Cast, we’re going to turn the microphone over to Hillary O’Keefe online marketing manager for Onward Search, to explore the online and offline elements of successful networking with VMWare’s social media producer, Luke Kilpatrick.

Listen Now!

Questions Hillary Asks Luke in this Jobcast

Luke, would you care to tell us a little bit about the company and especially your unique title at VMWare?

Would you mind telling the story of how a change in mailing address for you led to your greater appreciation and support of professional user groups.

I’d bet you that most people focus more on online networking than they do offline. Why should people embrace offline networking, especially user groups, like the ones that you deal with?

What do you recommend is the best way to make the most out of participating in a user group, and should job seekers approach that participation differently from people who are already employed, or should it be about the same?

Tune in next time for part two of Hillary O’Keefe’s interview with VMWare social media producer Luke Kilpatrick.

1. To start off, why should businesses be concerned with interactive design and what trends or changes are you seeing that make interactive designers so important to business success this year?

2. While just about all companies obviously can benefit from an enhanced online presence, what industries do you predict will invest the most in interactive design this year?

4. Jonathan, what new trends in web and consumer behavior should I be aware of when creating my portfolio?

5. We were talking earlier about mobile and mobile sites. Should designers be creating a portfolio specifically for mobile devices?

6. Here’s a question that I know some designers must be asking, why do I need to create a portfolio? Crop, Carbonmade, and Creative Hotlist work fine for me.

7. How can I make my portfolio as visible as possible to the right companies? What are some of the strategies I need to think about?

8. One last question for you Jonathan, what are the hot interactive opportunities that Onward Search is working on right now? What do you guys really have on the front burner?

There’s no denying that the mobile technology industry is moving at breakneck speeds. If you’re looking for the latest and best information on working in the mobile design and development space, The Onward Search Career Cast is a great resource. In the latest episode, Terra Dehnert from the new Onward Search San Francisco office talks with Career Cast host Peter Clayton about what she’s seeing in the field, for both working mobile designers and the companies that want to hire them!

Listen Now!

Are you interested in the latest trends for Android and iOS development? iPads and the emerging tablet platforms? In this podcast we take you to the city that’s considered the national hub of technological innovation: San Francisco!

To start, Terra and Peter cover the basics of the mobile interface design field, like how to break in to it and what skills are needed the most to stay competitive as a designer. Terra advises creating a project of your own and doing everything you can to learn all about the field and the industry. It also helps to build solid relationships with developers who can turn your designs into functioning applications that you can share with the world.

On the other side of the table, there are the companies that want to bring their products and services to the masses via mobile devices. What about them? How should they approach the process of “going mobile”? Terra breaks down the steps from audience and platform research to deciding whether to go with native platform app or a mobile compatible web app. I highly recommend downloading and listening to the episode or reading the transcript for all the details on that part.

Terra shares her thoughts on where tablet devices fit into the mobile space and how crucial testing and prototyping are to successful mobile interface designs. She also dives into all the hot jobs the San Francisco office is working to fill right now, so tune in for those details as well!

With all that industry insight, this is an episode of Career Cast that will benefit anyone in the mobile design industry, whether you’re trying to break in, move ahead in your career, or find the talent that will make your company’s app the next destination on someone’s Smartphone. Speaking of which, the San Francisco team (make that all the Onward Search recruiters) can help you accomplish all those things! Reach out today and get your moving on your mobile goals!
