Online engagement
Publishing and engaging with content
You could post about your successes (e.g. receiving an award), what you’re up to (e.g. attending webinars or launching an enterprise), what you’re offering (e.g. volunteering to write articles or carry out work experience relevant to the career you’re pursuing) and the like. You could also post key takeaways from the events, webinars or workshops you have attended. This can all show that you use your initiative, you’re pro-active and a self-starter, you’re engaged, you’re constantly looking to learn and progress, and that you’re genuinely interested in a particular topic or industry.
To encourage engagement with your posts, share them with groups, use hashtags and tag other people/organisations. You can also engage with other people’s posts by liking them, leaving comments, asking them questions and more. All this can help to ensure that your network is aware of your skills and strengths (and what you’re looking to achieve), which can result in recommending you for opportunities that later arise.
