Specialized social networks have developed and allow the dissemination of your CV and the search for contacts. Among them :
- LinkedIn: Created in 2003 in California. LinkedIn is a professional social network with an international vocation. The site has more than 100 million members in 2011 in more than 200 countries. A real tool for personal branding and e-reputation management. The site is very well referenced on Google. The site really uses the professional network since it is necessary to have common relations to connect with a person.
- Viadeo: French-dominated professional social network. The site was first launched in Spain and is starting to expand internationally. Less used than LinkedIn (40 million members in November 2011). Viadeo has had a partnership with APEC (Association for the employment of executives) since 2009. The main uses of Viadéo are: to create its network, to manage its career and to develop its business.
- Xing: Developed on the German market, it is possible to use Xing in Spain to distribute your CV for German companies. Created in 2009, the site is completely free. The site also works on the principle of connection (you have to know someone to get in touch with him) and networking. The site is available in many languages ​​including German, French, English and Spanish.
- Yupeek: this new social network is dedicated more particularly to young graduates or students looking for an internship. Yupeek allows you to disseminate your CV and bring together students from VSEs and SMEs who can disseminate internship or job offers. The site is still in its beta version.
