I'm about to share a valuable lesson that will help you save time. Let's face it: Many of us waste days, weeks, and even months applying for jobs using traditional tactics. How do I know? I spent years doing the same thing until I discovered the world of personal branding. Allow me to explain. Five years ago, I got laid off from a job that I thought I was meant to be at. At first, I went back to all I ever knew:
The problem? It wasn't working. I essentially submitted my resume and cover letter to a massive pile with thousands of others. Anyway... As time went along, I discovered the world of personal branding. I'll never forget the switch this concept flipped in my brain. Personal Brand = Control of your career. I knew I had to do something that could allow me to be in charge. For months, I studied some of the best creators like:
I watched how creative and consistent they were with their content. Later on, I did what everyone should do: I started posting daily content. I posted first and asked questions later. The result? I built this newsletter and launched my first digital course. But here's the moral of this story: You need to be noticed by your next employer. Otherwise, you're simply adding more resumes and cover letters to a large pile. It turns out I was completely invisible to opportunities. Hiring managers do look online to get a sense of the person they want to interview. Prior to my layoff, I hadn't taken my brand seriously enough. I spent hours hitting apply on every application I could find. At my lowest point, I realized the problem wasn't my resume. It was the tactics I used. I didn't put myself out there for people to see, and I learned a valuable lesson: Hope is not a strategy. After years of stacking the resume pile, I figured something out. A personal brand will help me stand out to employers and hiring managers. How do I start building one? I'm glad you asked.
