Video Training Programs to Teach Job Seekers How To Maximize Personal Brand and Digital Profile

Job seekers are encouraged to attend Your Job Search Goes Social with Sima Dahl, founder and president of the Sway Factory, held on October 20 from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. CDT.

This one-day, online workshop covers the questions most asked by job seekers, gleaned from a survey conducted by Dahl’s company. Participants will learn about personal branding, crafting the perfect elevator pitch, optimizing LinkedIn profiles, maximizing one’s digital footprint, networking like a pro and nailing the informational interview.

Dahl is an international speaker, trainer and coach who spent the first 20 years of her career in corporate marketing, helping both start-ups and enterprises with their branding, messaging and lead generation. She now combines her marketing expertise with social media savvy to teach professionals how to create more Sway - more ethical influence - through personal branding, messaging and their digital footprint.

“Not a week goes by that someone doesn’t ask for my advice on their personal brand, my opinion of their LinkedIn profile, for my top tips on Informational Interviewing, or for a sanity check on social networking to accelerate their job search,” says Dahl. “I describe my own career in corporate American as volatile, so I’ve harnessed everything I’ve learned and experienced and am using it to help people land their dream jobs,” she adds.

More than 200 people responded to Dahl’s survey and the programs were shaped around the results. The four sessions are as follows:

1. Personal Branding & Your Elevator Pitch: 10 a.m. -11 a.m. CDT
2. LinkedIn Profile Optimization & Your Digital Footprint: 11:30 - 12:30 p.m. CDT

4. Rapid Fire FAQ - 1 hour answering the questions that always come up: 2:30 - 3:30 p.m. CDT
