Blogging for prestige is a wonderful way to promote yourself. Especially in today’s job market. Think about it. Who would YOU hire? The 3.5 GPA college grad who hands you a one page resume, a cover letter and shows up for the interview in blue jeans or the 3.5 GPA college grad who hands you a one page resume, a cover letter, shows up in blue jeans and has 2000 people following their blog every day because they know everything there is to know about architecture and they’re passionate enough about it to share it with the world?
Now that’s just an example and I’m hoping you’re smart enough not to show up for an interview at a prestigious architecture firm wearing blue jeans. But you get my point.
That person with the blog is obviously passionate about architecture else why would they have set up a blog about it when there are millions of other topics they could have blogged about? That person obviously has tenacity. It takes a lot of time and a lot of dedication to develop a blog that has ANY followers let alone 2000. And that person obviously has some style. There are tons of blogs out there about architecture. Yet this person has managed to rise above all those other architecture blogs and attract 2000 visitors who could just as easily click off to another site. But they’re sticking around THIS blog because they’re learning something about architecture and it’s being presented in such a way that they ENJOY learning about it.
Now what employer would pass up hiring an associate who has Passion about their job, the Tenacity to stick with it and a Style that impresses thousands of other people?
The job market today is very competitive. It’s no longer enough to put on your best suit and tie and use a fancy font on your resume. Especially if you have no previous work experience to list on that resume. Which is one of the best reasons for Prestige Blogging. You can establish yourself as an authority in your field before you’ve ever even been hired.
If all of this sounds a little complicated and overwhelming to you, don’t worry. I’ll be showing you how to blog with style and how to blog with tenacity. I’ll help you let your passion for you topic shine through. And I’m even going to teach you how to speak with authority on your blog. For now, just know that Blogging For Prestige will help you when it comes time for that job interview. And DON’T wear blue jeans!
