Positioning Yourself for Career Success in the New Decade By: Isabella Sand and Steven Bae

1. Strive to gain a full understanding of what you want.
2. Your motivation shouldn’t be to get any new job. Shift your focus to finding and landing the right job.
3. Marketing is putting yourself out there, branding is the reason they want to meet with you.
4. Tailor your LinkedIn and your online presence to build a personal brand.
5. Your brand should create a road map of where you want to go.
6. Shaping your professional brand through engagement.
7. What you wear does matter: There is something about dressing well that draws people to you; the ability to capture people’s attention is a superpower in this era.
8. Consider everything. There is an opportunity cost to both declining and accepting an offer.
