Google yourself.5
Phil Buckley@1918Multiple studies show that more than 75% of employers actively research candidates online.
They show further that more than 70% have decided NOT to hire a candidate based on what theyve found.Your Future Employer Is Watching You Online. You Should Be, Too.https://hbr.org/2012/04/your-future-employer-is-watchi
Have someone else look at your online self and give you tough-love feedback.6
Phil Buckley@1918You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.This includes how you interact online
The friends you interact with online influence the language you use, the photos you post and the tone of your conversations.7
Phil Buckley@1918You are in control of your online reputation
Look at your feeds as a snapshot. Other people arent going to scroll endlessly to find that week where you were really witty and smart. What if they looked at your Twitter feed or Facebook feed right now? Are you last 20 posts bashing a political candidate they may like?8
Phil Buckley@1918Put yourself out there
That doesnt mean you speak at 100 events a year, it means your peer group know of you as a leader. You dont need a certain title to be a leader - but you do need to stand out in front, and inspire people to follow you.
That can happen in many ways, but you have to make a real dent. By dent, I mean - you have to be noticed.
Maybe you have your graphic design stuff featured on Dribble or your code is popular on Github or your posts on Medium get a zillion comments. People respect your work.9

Phil Buckley@1918Receiving a LinkedIn recommendation is great.
Thank people when they recommend you, but dont be afraid to ask them to tweak it slightly but dont be a jerk about it.16
Phil Buckley@1918Writing a LinkedIn recommendation says as much about you as it does about them.
Write amazing recommendations that actually help hiring managers understand the other person.
Always aim to be the best recommendation that person has.17
Phil Buckley@1918You can ask people to endorse you for specific skills
Decide what you want to be known for18
Phil Buckley@1918Dear Friend,

If you have a minute this week, could your endorse my blah-blah skills on LinkedIn?
Your friends want to help you because theyll feel like a big shot if they help you land a job.19
