Week 8 - BALT 4361- last blog

 LinkedIn is an important professional network and adding relevant skills and keywords to profiles and resumes can greatly improve career chances. Trying out new approaches to how one presents skills (like overhauling job titles or creating descriptors like “AI curious”) becomes an exercise in defining the kind of profile one wants to match with current industry trends. Even more important is to avoid thinking about LinkedIn as something you just update one day and never think about again. (Connections often yield unique opportunities that are not found on a job board.)

In the same manner as financial investment, small doses over a period of time on career development also brings large returns. It is statistically one of the least effective ways to land a job if you only rely on job applications while networking and building connections are far more effective. Creating monthly reminders to update LinkedIn, connect with others, and keep on top of industry changes is a great way to stay flexible in your career for the long haul. Trying to do networking group or work on profession development with friends may give you motivation and great feedback. To summarize, developing in-demand skills and keeping yourself updated on emerging trends, especially within the field of AI, will open up career options and provide job satisfaction.
