Getting Started in the Glue Talent Showcase™

Front Page Upon Registration

• Your front page consists of 5 “Galleries”• The “Brief”, “Resume”, “First Impression Video”, and “Assessment” galleries are all pre-formatted for specific use/content types• Click gallery icons to enter information or upload content

Brief

• Account Information transfers from registration• Make sure to save each section (headshot, education, etc.)• Information won’t show up in your Brief until headshot and personal brand statement are saved.

Glue Assessment

• The Glue Assessment consists of a series of preference-type questions measured from “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree”• Progress is displayed on the top right corner of the gallery box• Any skipped pages will re-appear before you complete the assessment• Once you’ve completed, it takes a moment for results to appear.

Resume & Cover Letter

• Click browse to find and upload your resume from your computer• Your resume title will only be seen if you add your cover letter (i.e. when there are two pieces of content in your gallery – see page 8 for more detail).

First Impression Video – Upload

• Your First Impression Video uploads in two stages.• The first stage uploads your video into Glue’s database.• The progress of your upload is signified by the progress bar• Do not close the gallery box when your video is uploading or you’ll have to do it again.

First Impression Video – Processing

• Once your video has uploaded into Glue’s database (100% in progress bar), you’ll be notified on the top left of the page.• The “Processing” icon means your video is being prepared to be viewed within your Talent Showcase. • When “Processing”, you can close out of the gallery or even log-out of Glue. A thumbnail will appear when the video is ready.

User-Defined Content

• To rename your user-defined gallery, click “Rename Gallery” on the right side of the box. Click “save” in the header after renaming. • Upload content by going through the same “Browse” process as you did with your resume (see page 5).• To upload additional content in an individual gallery, click the + icon in the gallery footer, adjacent to the thumbnail of existing content.

Add Content Galleries

• You can add as many user-defined content galleries as you’d like. • Click “Add Gallery” and a “New Gallery” will appear to the right of your front page. • New Galleries can be re-sized by dragging the bottom right corner of the gallery box.

Share Talent Showcase™

• Click the “Share” icon at the bottom of your page to send your Talent Showcase to others.• Enter an email address in the “to” field & type a message above the link.• The link is unique to your Talent Showcase.

How Others Interact with Your Talent Showcase™

• Everything in your Talent Showcase is the same except the “Contact” & “Rate” icons.• People that view your Talent Showcase can “Contact” you directly.• The “Rate my Talent Showcase” icon enables people to give you feedback on your presentation. Only you will see this information.

Talent Showcase™ Analytics

• Communicates how others have interacted with your Talent Showcase™ via page views and time on site.• Calculates the average “Rate” score• Aggregates “Rate” feedback and “Contact” messages

Technical Considerations

• The thumbnail for documents & PDFs teases the top left of the (first) page. • The First Impression Video thumbnail is taken about 5 seconds in.• If using a phone to create your First Impression Video, shoot in “horizontal” view, otherwise your video will be displayed sideways.• Glue is optimized for the most recent and second most recent edition of all major browsers. Older editions will have display errors.

More Technical Considerations

• All file types are accepted except .exe and .mov files.• If using an iPhone, iPod, or iPad, make sure to save your videos as .MP4, not .MOV.• If you encounter any minor visual errors, simply refresh the page to correct the issue.
