WEEK 10 - LEE HOUGHTON - DIGITAL IDENTITY SESSION / LINKEDIN UPDATE

DEC 1 2021

This week we had our session with Lee Houghton, the session was to help our digital identity as a designer progress. The aims of this session were as follows -

Understand how the job market works

Get started with networking for your job search

The pros and Cons of using social media

building and making the most of your online profile

How to use linked in, Facebook and Twitter effectively

To start with we looked at our digital footprint.

As seen bellow neither myself or the art alias I have show up in the results.

Looking at this chart regarding digital presence, LinkedIn and facebook are at the top of which sites empleyers are looking at, Currently linkedIn for myself is not very well used as i find the site hard to engage with. Currently my page looks as follows.

Following on from this I used the points Lee Suggested in the presentation and adjusted my profile to the following suggestions.

After these changes here is how my new profile looks.

Overall I think my new profile looks more professional and any potential employers can gain some immediate information from my logo banner and with my updated personal info and new connections.
