If you're serious about landing a full-time job, you need to look like you're ready for one. If your online presence makes it seem like you’re busy with freelance projects or side gigs, recruiters might assume you’re not fully available and that could cost you opportunities.
So, how do you show up as a top candidate? Here’s a quick checklist:
✅ Update Your Resume & LinkedIn – Make sure your skills, experience, and accomplishments are clear and current. A strong LinkedIn presence increases your chances of being found. Also, engage wisely.
✅ Be Public About Your Search – Post about your job hunt, engage with industry content and let your network know you're open to opportunities.
✅ Apply Strategically, Not Randomly – Tailor your applications to roles that match your skills and career goals. Quality over quantity!
Make it obvious that you’re serious about landing the right role. The more intentional you are, the faster the right opportunity finds you.
Now, go put yourself out there and stay focused.
