Brand Yourself Comparison

In the beginning of the semester we were asked to take a screenshot of the Brand Yourself score after creating our account. Over the last couple months I was able to log on and see my refreshed score every week and what I could do to improve it.

I started going through all the tips that this version offered allowing my score to improve over the weeks. I clicked on the checklist that allowed me to go through different selections and took action on what I was going to do. I created a Linkden account with my information allowing me to have a professional page for my future endeavors. In addition, I clicked through different different Google results that showed up for my name allowing me to have more accuracy as an individual on the internet.

Beside the items from the check list, I also went through my photos on my social media account and making sure they were all appropriate for my accounts. This allows for a more professional look as I will be searching for jobs and internships in the future. Following that, I have been keeping a presence on my socials media accounts more regularly than ofter. I have tried to update my thoughts along with events in my life and relatable posts that share the person I am.

My score went from a 376 (which was rated in the fair category) to a 572 (which is in the good category). This improvement is an achievement that I am proud of as I am advancing myself in the internet and society. I strive to continue this presence and plan to work on better myself even more over the internet, as it is very crucial to my professional development.
