Share an Experience While Searching for a Job. Build your Career on your Own.
This is a powerpoint where I start describing what I enjoy in life, which is the ultimate goal of every profession. Gather enough money to enjoy your life. This was a big part of the presentation as the reason is an indispensable part of the way a certain job is done. When talking about yourself, you should always describe what you are passionate about. You should show what makes you the person that you are and why you chose to do certain things in your professional life. I used this at a career fair as a presentation of my last year experience. As you can see the amount of words used in the presentation is low and that because I wanted to build a quick relationship with the audience as soon as I got in the room. And of course it is better for people to judge your capability of being you and spontaneous than your capability of preparing a powerpoint with your idea on the wall. Most of the HR people received it well because through my experience they got hints on what I am capable of doing and what my attributes as a candidate are. Of course there was an instance of an HR being almost rude and aggresive towards the friendly and casual way that I was presenting, but there will always be people that will take their job too seriously and lose their character in it. Those are the people that are incapable and because of their incapability they hide behind their corporate, strict, 19th century image. When applying for a job, there is always the give and take factor. You give your knowledge and passion and receive monetary acknowledgement. Never change your personality over the ignorance of somebody that should be begging to hire a person with ideas and not a person that follows orders.
