0:00Hey it's Tim here, in this video I'm
0:01covering something that's already actually
0:03been out in
0:03public and people have actually been able
0:05to get jobs and hide from this. It's been
0:07really sort of
0:08positive story. In Tableau Public you can
0:10now activate a hire me button for people
0:12who are
0:12looking for work on your Tableau Public
0:14profile. Now in case you missed it the
0:17Tableau conference
0:18talked about something called the Tableau
0:20economy and essentially that was three
0:22groups of people.
0:23You had Tableau partners, Tableau creators,
0:25people like you and me and then Tableau
0:27themselves and
0:28essentially this economy being created
0:30around this and a vital part of that, vital
0:33part of
0:33any economy is essentially the people who
0:35actually make content and put these
0:37resources onto that
0:38economy. And so one thing Tableau
0:40recognized they need to enable those people
0:42to find work and
0:43Tableau Public needs to become the leading
0:45kind of spear of that rather than something
0:47like
0:47LinkedIn. At any one time if you google on
0:49LinkedIn or search on LinkedIn and you know
0:52you find
0:52thousands of jobs about Tableau but what is
0:56often not the case is that people aren't
0:59actually leading
1:00with examples of their work so you often
1:02find you get people going for jobs who don
1:04't have actually
1:05much experience building Tableau. They've
1:07opened it a few times and so Tableau Public
1:08is trying
1:09to take that back by letting people
1:11demonstrate their capability with Tableau
1:13through their
1:14profile. And so in the Tableau 21.4 release
1:17officially at least the hire me button is
1:19now
1:19something that's going to be available but
1:21it was actually made available a while ago.
1:23So let me
1:24show you how to enable this if I click edit
1:26profile you'll see that your profile comes
1:28up
1:28here on this page and you can actually go
1:30down here to this little button and it says
1:32display
1:33a hire me button on my profile so others
1:35can contact me about work opportunities in
1:38the
1:38future. By opting in you agree to Tableau
1:40Public's terms of service then you give it
1:42an email. Now
1:43the email in here is obviously just going
1:45to be your default one that's used by Table
1:47au Public
1:47but nonetheless put that email then and hit
1:49save and when you do you have a hire me
1:53button right
1:53there so now people can reach out to you
1:55and can sort of you know find out what you
1:58're up for. Now
1:59I work at the information lab so if you
2:00hire me that's going to end up starting a
2:02conversation
2:03with the information lab that sort of goes
2:05without saying. So I think that's nice for
2:07people who
2:08maybe don't have a role in analytics yet
2:09who are looking for role have invested a
2:11lot of time
2:12learning Tableau very quickly and now are
2:14starting to sort of find ways of trying to
2:17get into the
2:18community of work and actually just getting
2:20hands-on experience. So I think you should
2:21do
2:22this if you're passionate about getting
2:23hired with Tableau. I think this will
2:25become the new default
2:26for basically having a portfolio of work
2:28that people can see because again Tableau
2:30Public is
2:31free you don't need a license to have a
2:32portfolio of work so going forward I think
2:34you'll very much
2:35need to speak with the quality of your work
2:37rather than just saying that you spend time
2:39at Tableau.
2:40That's pretty much it for this video thanks
2:42for watching we'll catch you in the next
2:44one.
