Joshua Waldman is an Author, Speaker and Trainer specializing in helping people re-gain control of their careers in today’s economic and technology climate. As the author of “Job Searching With Social Media For Dummies”, he enjoys presenting keynotes and workshops on personal branding, online reputation and advanced LinkedIn strategy. He also runs CareerEnlightenment.com, a successful career blog.
Joshua’s interest in social media career advancement developed as a result of combining his life-long passion for technology and his extensive training in job search strategy as an MBA. When he got laid-off twice in six month, and bounced right back into good jobs, he quickly realized that his philosophy and strategies were powerful enough to help not just his own career, but the careers of others. This experience, combined with 5 years experience as a social media strategist, career consultant and blogger gives him a unique perspective on these online job search techniques. It is Joshua’s hope that by sharing his knowledge, others will re-gain a sense of control over their careers, find clarity on how to use social media more effectively in the long term, and rekindle their passion for why they got into their industry in the first place.
Joshua gained his degree at Brown University in 2000. Since then, he has earned an MBA at Boston University’s International Management Program. He is on his way to National Speakers Association membership.
Joshua lives in Portland, Oregon with his wife, their teenage daughter and their little Pomeranian. When not working, Joshua likes to experiment with vegetarian cooking, working out at the locally owned gym and going for walks in the Northwest bad-lands.
