Facebook’s IPO: Who Got Rich

Facebook’s IPO: Who Got Rich
19/05/2012 by Todd Wasserman on Mashable

Mark Zuckerberg
Zuck, who owns 503.6 million shares, is now worth $19.14 billion, though his personal fortune surpassed the $20 billion mark several times.

Accel Partners/Jim Breyer
Breyer and Accel got a total of $7.7 billion, a nice payout, considering Accel only invested $12.2 million in Facebook in 2005, according to reports.

Peter Thiel
Thiel's stake is now valued at $1.7 billion. A PayPal co-founder, Thiel was an early investor.

Sean Parker
Parker also didn't sell any shares on Friday. His paper value of Facebook shares is now about $2.65 billion.

Eduardo Saverin
The estranged Facebook co-founder has an estimated net worth of $2.7 billion. He will also save about $67 million in taxes by renouncing his U.S. citizenship, according to estimates.

Greylock Partners
Greylock owns 1.5% of Facebook, a stake now worth bout $1.6 billion.

Bono
No one knows what Bono will make from the IPO, but Elevation Partners, his investment firm, made about $1.5 billion.

David Choe
Choe, a graffiti artist who painted the walls of Facebook's first offices in Palo Alto, Calif., was paid in 3.77 million shares of the company,which are now worth $144.2 million.
OK, so Facebook’s IPO may have seemed like a lot of sound and fury for 23 cents, but there will still doubtlessly be some celebrating in Menlo Park Friday night.

That’s because a lot of Facebookers got fabulously rich on Friday. True, it probably would have been an even more festive occasion if the stock had hit the $54 that Twitter had predicted, but Facebook’s measly gain on its first day of trading was still worth $115.7 million to Mark Zuckerberg.

Here’s why Zuck and some other big Facebook investors still have cause to pop the Champagne.

Mobile Jobseeking is Going Mainstream [INFOGRAPHIC]

Mobile Jobseeking is Going Mainstream [INFOGRAPHIC]
March 31, 2012 by Lauren Hockenson on Mashable

Have you checked your company’s mobile job offerings recently?

While there are many people already using mobile to find their dream jobs, don’t be misunderstood — using a smartphone to check out job boards isn’t just for early adopters or technophiles. In fact, it’s quickly becoming a mainstream method of finding a lasting career.

According to this infographic by mobile job search and recruiting company JIBE — based on research done by marketing research company Kelton Research — more than 4 out of 5 of surveyed smartphone users would use an iPhone, Android, Blackberry or Windows phone to search for jobs. Of those, nearly half would actually apply to a job right from a smartphone. Given the number of American who own smartphones has surpassed 100 million mark, the level of jobseekers looking to potentially score a job right on their phones can be staggering.

So what does it all mean? Plain and simple: if your company doesn’t have a mobile-friendly job board, it’s time to begin building one as soon as possible. More and more jobseekers are turning to the convenience, simplicity and speed of mobile to access jobs on the fly. If your mobile application isn’t optimized to suit the needs of potential employees, there’s an opportunity to miss out on quality talent.

Take a look at the infographic below to learn more about how mobile is changing the way people are looking for jobs. Would you use mobile to find your new job, or integrate mobile into your company’s recruiting strategy? Let us know in the comments.
