Perhaps you have a long list of words to describe yourself. That’s great, but a hiring manager doesn’t have the time (or the interest) to sit down and read through your list. You need to winnow down all those great, descriptive words into a short list of no more than three in order to create a memorable sound bite.
Forcing yourself to choose three words also helps you prioritize your personal branding message for all your job-related social media communications. And this focus ties in to your value statement, résumé, and any other decisions about your image.
Take this opportunity to decide on the top three words that best describe you. Remember these words and hang them up so you can see them during your job search. They’ll define you, drive you, and reassure you.
One of the best business cards was from a senior technologist who called herself a database wizard with personality. One simple phrase was really the perfect representation of her character, personality, and skill. The goal here is for you to have your own sound bite.
