Hire Me button now available on Tableau Public: New in Tableau 2021.4

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.
