Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Ask for some responses here!After responses, ask – how are you going to show future employers that?
  2. Companies have brands, you have a brand. Companies think about their brand, you should too!
  3. Use your brand to your advantage, get noticed. Remember your audience here. Ask professionals in your field their opinion when you get creative.
  4. Suggest doing a google search on yourself, nicknames, location. CLEAN IT UP.
  5. “What gets you there” – hard worker, positive attitude, teamwork, goal setting, etc.
