I gave my career talk recently at an event and quite a few people had questions about starting careers (in or just out of college) or finding another job (out of work). I answered as best I could, but there was one thing that I emphasized over and over and need to do here.
There is no quick fix.
The things I suggest to you, the ideas for building your brand and creating a modern resume can work and they will help you. However they take time. They take an investment in yourself across time.
You don't build a network in a month. It takes many months and years.
You don't build a blob that showcases your knowledge in a few weeks. It's a journey and a chronicle across time.
You don't volunteer, or lead, or research, or anything else in short periods of time.
Build your brand, slowly, steadily, using determination and focus, but remember that it takes time to get there.
