- Tips to Stand Out: PositioningIdentify key differentiatorsBrand yourselfPosition yourselfCreate a compelling sales pitchContinually sharpen your message
- Identify your key differentiators.
- Your sales pitch should be compelling and concise.You should be able to deliver it in 30 seconds or less.
- Hyperlink your marketing collateral.Add the URL for your Twitter handle and LinkedIn profile to your contact information on your resume. (But don’t add your Facebook profile, since that’s private.) Not only does this offer the employer another way of getting in touch with you and seeing how you interact online, it also shows that you’re social media-savvy, a skill valued by many employers.
