The first career activity that you should embark on is
properly projecting YOUR self-brand. Every other career

Our Definition:
Self‐branding reflects how we want to be perceived
by employers, potential employers, peers, and
others.
Self‐branding occurs when an individual develops
and markets him‐ or herself in the same manner as
a brand of a product would be marketed.
