How Important is Your Personal Branding?

I recently taught a class in Personal Branding to a group of Human Resources students looking to move into the marketplace when they graduate.  I talked to them about three components of Personal Branding; The Resume; LinkedIn Profiles; and The Interview.
In the recruiting industry, we talk a lot about making a good first impression. That first impression occurs in all these situations and more.

If your resume doesn’t tell the reader what’ in it for them, if it is a canned resume, you might be blowing that good first impression.

If your LinkedIn profile doesn’t have a business photo and a clear “searchable” title, you might be blowing the good first impression.

If you don’t look right, don’t sit right, don’t act right, you might be blowing the good first impression.

And here’s the worst part, you might not even know you have missed these key indicators.  Reach out to us and we can help you with these things and get you ready to make a good first impression with your Personal Branding components.

Support our Veterans

It's too late to support your local Veterans Day activities (until next year) but it's never to late to thank a Veteran for their service to our country, to our way of life, to our freedom.  
Please don't take any of these things for granted.  

Never miss a chance to thank a Vet today and every day.
