Using online profiles

Your CV is finished and you even have a LinkedIn page but what else could you do to impress employers? An article on workawesome.com looks at the advantage of having an online profile. This is a short website that you control and that employers can access showing details about your achievements that can’t be included on a CV.  Online profiles are particularly recommended for sectors where job seekers need to demonstrate visual and design skills. An architect could add their building designs or a marketer could post details of campaigns they have worked on. The key to using an online profile is to make sure it looks as professional as the image you would portray face to face or on a traditional CV. Workawesome also gives advice on domain names, passwords and privacy. To see if an online profile would work for your job search read the article at http://workawesome.com/your-job/online-profile/
