This might not be what you were expecting…

Conducting your own appraisal

• Career Planning

• Social Media

• Purposeful CV Writing

Career Planning

• What is my ultimate goal?

• Where am I now?

• What do I need?

• How can I get it?

Social Media

“The sharing of information via any number of web based networks with a conversation or

business goal in mind”

or

“An instantaneous way to share knowledge beyond your network and control; an easy way

to go from hero to zero – or worse…”

So…

• Your objective

• Which networks will fulfil that

• How much are you willing to give

Curriculum Vitae

“A static list of qualifications and experience gained to date, typically described with either an

excess or deficit of enthusiasm.”

or

A Latin expression which can be loosely translated as “[the] course of [my] life.”
