Pre-course requirements
No prerequisites are required to take this course
Objectives
1- To be known, to become visible. So the student must know himself to be able to project himself to others. He must be aware that he is unique and possesses qualities that others are not. That is why we must emphasize these qualities.
2- The second objective is to become recognized. Many times, even if they know us, we may not be needed right now. It is essential that they remember us for when the occasion requires it. When it is necessary to fill a job, the employer must remind us before others.
3- The third goal is to be memorable. It is of no use to be remembered if in the end they continue to choose another. The ultimate goal of our personal brand is to choose us, so it is important to work failure as a means of learning and growth in the case of not being elected.
4- Manage the personal brand in a methodical way and with the help of a professional to be the chosen candidate.
