Do you think our school leavers and young entrepreneurs have the skillset they need to prepare them for the workplace? They’ve certainly spent many hours honing their insta accounts, TikTok videos and snapchat profiles… But - they’re missing a crucial resource. Something that will get them seen, noticed and remembered - for all the RIGHT reasons! Their LinkedIn profile.
As a 40 year old (still living like he's a twenty something) I really envy the amazing digital tools that are now available to young entrepreneurs and those just starting out in their careers.
I often wonder what I would tell my 18 year old self if I had the chance.
My advice would be the same as I tell my nephew - create an amazing page, tell the world and your future employers / clients just how motivated you are, and how much success means to you.
Because that's exactly what I had in 1999! I had ambition, thirsty for success and eager for a big house, a fancy car and plenty of cash to splash.
Which is why Clare Ford and myself are putting together an exciting, new, niche online course for teenagers and students to give them the tools and confidence on how to maximise their LinkedIn profiles, without the stuffy corporate fluff / suits / jargon!
LinkedIn is full of amazing elements for students - whether it be the 30 second video that allows your future contacts to meet with you as soon as they land on your page, all the way through to highlighting your certificates, connecting with some amazing powerful connections all the way through to fast tracking your way to an amazing career from the get go!
In 2013, LinkedIn lowered its minimum age requirement from 18 to 14, giving students the power to post their skills and interests — something they're proud of and want colleges and potential employers to find!
So here's my question to you, whether you're a parent, or a teenager -
Would you be interested in having access to this on demand video course?
