About the Past Event

Personal branding is important for all professionals (whether they work for an organization or as freelancers), and LinkedIn (LI) is an important tool for building a personal brand. To fully benefit from this social channel, it’s important to understand the LI algorithm and how to attract recruiters and potential clients, as well as the best practices for connecting with other professionals and posting relevant content, which help build a network and increase visibility.

These aspects of LI will be discussed this February during a webinar with writer, editor, and coach Anna Kendall, who will share her research and experience using the platform to build her personal brand. She will be joined by recruiter, coach, and LI power user Emily Redington, who will share insights and tips from her many years working as a recruiter and using the LI recruiter platform. 

Since personal branding is important for all professionals, all certificate students and certificate completers are welcome to register for this event!

Attendees will learn about the following:

  • Exercises and tools to help define a personal brand
  • Tips for setting up and optimizing a profile
  • Best practices for connecting with other professionals
