Hey everyone! Welcome back to the Career Bootcamp. Now that we’ve got the essentials of your Career Profile: Personal Details, Education, Courses, Extracurriculars & Sports. Let’s get to the good stuff and start showing off who you are aside from your professional-self.
“But why? Why do I need to show more than my education, experience and extracurriculars? Isn’t that all the recruiters need to know if I’m capable and qualified?”
Good question, person sitting on the other side of the screen! While we handle which companies you are connecting with based on your education and experience, it’s up to you express your interests, hobbies and things you like to do to blow off steam.
The “Hobbies” and “Others” sections are two areas on your career profile where you talk about what keeps you going and entertained outside of your workplace. Not only does this give you a chance to be a memorable candidate, it also gives the recruiter more of an idea about what type of person you are and how you would fit with their company culture.
Hobbies translate into the type of person you are. For example, if you enjoy chess, puzzles and other mind-using games, it may indicate that you are a strategic thinker and like to view problems objectively. If you enjoy the arts, music and dance, then it will suggest that you’re a creative thinker and will be useful in producing solutions with a creative aspect to it. We found this cool post that suggests who you are based on what you do in your free time, check it out.
One of the great things about your MySlate Career Profile is that it is designed so you can tell your full story, this means you don’t have to exclude items from your profile or customize it for specific jobs. So, you can include all of your hobbies in your career profile to tell your story. Before you go to an interview think about specific experiences you can use as examples in your interviews.
Many times interviewers will ask questions such as “Tell me about a time where you had to solve a problem.” or “...that you experienced conflict and how you solved that conflict.”
For example, if you are a Little League Baseball Coach, your experience will translate into leadership and organization skills, which will be useful at your potential workplace.
Adding your interests and hobbies may be the spark a conversation about mutual interests between you and your interviewer, which may lead a positive and lasting impression. Keep in mind, you don’t want to include something that will split you and your potential employer into two different sides. So, stay away from adding political and religious views etc. that might cause a divide apart rather than bond.
When it comes to the “Other” section on your MySlate profile or resume, this is where you want to express yourself in a way that adds to the awesome impression you just left on the recruiter. Adding values you believe in, and experiences that make you the person you are, gives your resume a voice that represents you and your character.
So remember to fully express yourself when it comes to “Hobbies” and “Others”. If you don’t have one, pick one up! Learn the guitar, play a sport or read some amazing books.
There is so much to do with such little time in this world, why not make your hobbies count?. Think of it this way, if you and your recruiter were both skydivers, how cool of a employment story would that be?
In the next post of the series, Showing Off Your Skills, we discuss how critical your computer skills are to a potential employer.
Character Secret: When I was a teenager I overheard my parents arguing late one night, revealing a huge secret that my brother Scott is only my half brother. My mother had a one-night stand with a close friend and conceived Scott that night. Nobody knows that I know this secret and Scott is certainly in the dark about our mother’s past indiscretion. I don’t know how to reveal the truth to my brother or if I should just keep it a secret.
Part II
What is your character’s current struggle? Ryan wants to be able to find a woman to settle down with, but his career completely gets in the way of that kind of time. He’s already 30 years old and feels the need and desire to slow things down a bit, but Ryan loves his career more than anyone could imagine. But he also loves the thought of having a wife and children. He loves the thought of having a family.
Who will your character be spending Valentine’s Day with? He hopes to be back in town and spend it with Adriana
If your character could travel anywhere in the world, where would they go? He doesn’t want to travel anymore. I think he does that enough for his job.
Part III (OOC)
Do you desire any connections for your character that he/she doesn’t already have? The connections are fantastic!
Are there any changes you would like us to consider making regarding to your character’s bio? The bio was Ryan’s selling point for me. He’s what every guy would hope to be.
What is your favorite thing and/or least favorite thing about our RPG? Oh gosh, I have to have only one favorite? Everything, really. But I think the way the characters are connected is great. It’s so organized and makes a lot of sense. It’s awesome!
