The document discusses the Women's Resource Centre's initial steps in using social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Flickr to achieve their strategic goals of promoting solidarity, advocating for women's sectors, and improving their national reach. It outlines how they set up profiles, pages, and online communities to engage members, raise their profile, and connect women's organizations. Their social media presence helped them reach new audiences and supporters while providing richer engagement and networking opportunities across the women's sector.

This document outlines the problem that businesses, users, and charities face in engaging users in volunteer opportunities and fundraising efforts. It proposes an online community platform called Giventure that would localize, personalize, and gamify volunteer work to increase engagement for users and outreach for charities. The platform would allow users to browse customized opportunities near them and track their volunteer history, and allow charities to create events, list opportunities, set timeslots and descriptions, and track volunteers. It presents the product, business model, competitive analysis, leadership team, and future plans to test and launch the platform.
There are three main ways to find a job according to the document. The first is to find jobs before they are advertised by networking, informational interviews, social media, targeting companies, and attending events. The second is to apply for advertised jobs by checking company websites, posting resumes on job boards, signing up for job alerts, and looking in newspapers.

The Rules Do Apply: Navigating HR ComplianceAggregage
https://www.humanresourcestoday.com/frs/26903483/the-rules-do-apply--navigating-hr-compliance
HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.
This is a particular pain point for small HR departments, or HR departments of 1, that lack compliance teams and in-house labor attorneys. So, what do you do?
The goal of this webinar is to make you smarter in knowing what you should be focused on and the questions you should be asking. It will also provide you with resources for making compliance more manageable.
Objectives:
• Understand the regulatory landscape, including labor laws at the local, state, and federal levels
• Best practices for developing, implementing, and maintaining effective compliance programs
• Resources and strategies for staying informed about changes to labor laws, regulations, and compliance requirements
2. VETTIT
THE PROBLEM

your organization as a volunteer, collecting their
Facebook profile information as well as answers to
survey questions that you define.

WORKFLOW
Quickly view detailed information on prospective
volunteers, approve or reject them with a click.
Every volunteer and applicant is tracked so you can
always get a list of who’s who.
