it is of essence to have a good standing with your online brand or image when you are job searching hiring managers and recruiters will Google your name before asking for an interview with their organisation or company.

So this simply means that it is important to manage your online presence to ensure that you are in the right standing to come clean with your online image. So what can you do to achieve this:

Start with Setting your personal accounts to private. Be more intentional about your online brannd and delete any unprofessional posts on your pages.

Go ahead to audit your public profiles for any scandalous materials that might have been left there by you or others. Don't forget to search other of your accounts like Twitter or Instagram to be sure you don't have incriminating posts, materials or contents. Infact start sharing the industry-related content to indicate your interest and expertise in the industry you are applying for the job

You can also have a personal site where Google can show other things about you than just your social media pages

The big one is updating your LinkedIn profile. If you don't have the profile already you can create one and complete your work history. And make write what you want the recruiters to know about you.

We've all been there. You've just lost your job, and you're feeling a little down. But don't worry! There are ways to boost up your brand so that even though you may be missing out on the paycheck for a while, people still know that you're the best at what you do.

First of all, put yourself in your customers' shoes. What would they want to know about you? What questions do they have? What would make them want to hire you again?

Next, think about how your customers might be feeling right now. They might be frustrated with their current situation and want someone they can trust who can help them get back on track. They might be scared or stressed about their future prospects and need some reassurance that things will be okay in the long run.

Finally, think about how much time will be needed for the new job search and what kind of resources will be available during this time? Do you have enough money saved up from other jobs? Will there be any family support available while looking for work? If so, how will they help?

These are just some ideas that can help guide us through this difficult time in our lives..
