Differentiate Yourself
Nothing Differentiates in the Same Way
The Personal Pro link conveys “I’m not bragging but see who is.”
This gives a hiring authority, admissions officers, or potential customers access to the positive things people are saying about you in real time. Whether it is your last supervisor’s testimonial, a compliment from a coworker or client, or a compliment from the charity you volunteer for.
For jobseekers and college applicants it’s not going to leap frog you over others immensely more qualified but it does make you stand out and gives you an edge over your peers.
Another unique insight your profile provides is the situation where a hiring authority or admissions can also review compliments and comments you have posted about other people, places, things, including businesses and products. Perhaps about the company or university you are applying to (hint, hint).
This gives a very insightful perspective into your interests, passions, and viewpoints. It also shows how you convey your thoughts and opinions.
