Self marketing is an important idea to learn about it because it can help increase your chances of getting hired. The main idea behind self marketing is to get your name out there and get more people including employers to notice you. There are many different ways to grow your self market but the easiest way is online through social media and apps like LinkedIn. It is important to work on your profile and self market because it can make you stand out to more people, which is vital when you are searching for a new job.
What you need to know:
-Having a LinkedIn profile is important: It is good to have a profile on LinkedIn because employers use LinkedIn to post about job opportunities and to find the perfect job candidates. One important section to have in your profile is a skills section, because it gives you the opportunity to highlight the skills you have and what you are good at. Employers sometimes filter job applicants by skills, so it is important to show employers what skills you have. You can even add a certification section to your account as well, which is helpful since some jobs require specific certifications. Below is an example of some of the certifications I currently have on my profile.
-Connect with people: A big part of self marketing is reaching out to people you know or reaching out to someone who has expereince in a job you are looking for. On LinkedIn you can connect with people and message them which can help you find jobs and just help you get your name out there.
★★ The main thing to keep in mind is that the more you self market yourself the more people will see your profile and remember your name.
