Section III. Create Your Career Toolkit Information Security Identification: Confidential
Create Your Career Toolkit A career toolkit is a vital step to develop your personal brand. Before you apply for a job, you need to make sure that you have the following items are cohesively put together: Your Resume • Ask for advice • Description of your work experience should convey the difference you made in that organization • Break down tasks so that they exemplify your skills and knowledge Your Cover Letter • Keep it visually consistent • Include anything that your resume does not convey • Read it over! 10 Information Security Identification: Confidential
Create Your Career Toolkit Your References • Solicit help from those who already have a handle on your Brand • Can use bosses, coworkers, classmates who you have worked on a project with, professors, coaches, etc. • Get them in place before you need them! Your Interview Skills/Preparedness • Know as much as you can about the company and position before you go to an interview • Come with questions… but don’t ask a question just to prove you did your research! Use a question to learn more about what you will be doing or to find our the direction of the group or company you might be working for Your Wardrobe • When in doubt, overdress • Clean • Can be used to make you stand out 11 Information Security Identification: Confidential
Create Your Career Toolkit Your Elevator Speech Know your audience Know yourself • What are your strengths? • What adjectives come to mind to describe you? • What is it you are trying to ‘sell’ or let others know about you? Outline your talk. Use brief bullets that remind you of the following points: • Who am I? • What do I offer? • What are the main contributions I can make? • What should the listener do as a result of hearing this? Finalize your speech PRACTICE 12 Information Security Identification: Confidential
Create Your Career Toolkit Your Web Presence • Linked. In profile: A Linked. In profile is a combination of a resume, cover letter, references document and a moving and living database of your network. Use it to create your own personal advertising, to search for jobs or meet new people. • Facebook profile: Over 600 million people have profiles, but almost none of them have branded themselves properly using this medium. • Twitter profile: Your Twitter profile should have an avatar that is carved out of your Facebook picture and used in your Linked. In profile. • Email address: Keep it simple and use your name so people know who they are emailing 13 Information Security Identification: Confidential
Section IV. Networking to Build Your Brand Information Security Identification: Confidential
Networking to Build Your Brand • Define your needs and goals Careers and leads Increased visibility within your field Professional development Mentor relationships • Know your audience • Know yourself, your education, experience and skills • Prepare an elevator speech Describes you in 30 seconds or less > Who you are, what you offer, what you are looking for As essential as a business card – part of your personal brand Know your audience 15 Information Security Identification: Confidential
Be Interactive • In a large group setting, circulate and meet people, but don’t try to talk to everyone. It’s better to have a few meaningful conversations than 50 hasty introductions. Don’t cling to people you already know; you’re unlikely to build new contacts that way. Spend 80% of your time with people you don’t know • If you are at an event or reception, wear a nametag and collect or exchange business cards so you can follow-up. • Build interest by asking meaningful questions and showing how you can help • Follow up! 16 Information Security Identification: Confidential
Why Follow Up? • If you do nothing to follow up with the contacts that you make it becomes a wasted opportunity • Do not rely on others to carry on a relationship – networking is a two-way street • It keeps your name (and your brand) fresh in your contact’s mind • Following up after the initial contact is the first step to building a relationship If you wait until you need something to reach out to a contact they will be unlikely to go out of their way to help you 17 Information Security Identification: Confidential
