PP Tutorial with Dotty

–      Bulk up your LinkedIn account and connect it with all other channels you use

Have featured my Instagram account, and my website. It's all up to date with uni work.

–      Make sure to unify all your social media channels so they tell the same story

Same icon used in banners or headers - I need to design this alongside business cards
Made sure my email was updated in Instagram
My 'about' sections have continuity
Instagram and LinkedIn feature the same priority work
Had a problem where my current job position was a focal point on my LinkedIn, which Dotty said didn't read well. The careers advisor has said it's important to show you're a working person with skills so the compromise I found was putting LAU above it as a job, whilst not deleting other job experience. Unfortunately it doubles up but I can change that when I hopefully find a more industry relevant job.

Need to look into a new business card design, Dotty suggested MOO.com and Printfinity

–      When networking and finding connections, look for people who can become your support network for after graduation – people who can open doors, give you jobs or answer questions

When connecting with people on linkedIn, I've ensured they are relevant to me and my practice e.g. interest in diversity or vis dev.
