        Why Personal Branding is Important for Job seeking Engineers

        Personal branding is what makes you as an engineer stand out from the crowd
        Personal branding is what makes you as an engineer stand out from the crowd

        Personal branding is what makes you as an engineer stand out from the crowd. Personal branding is about the characteristics, that makes you interesting, relevant, and different, and you communicate your unique value to potential hiring managers.

        Personal branding is the process of creating a brand identity for an individual and how you project your brand and your values to the world. Ensuring that your target audience knows who you are, what you stand for and why they should choose you over your competitors.

        According to Search Engine Journal “ Personal branding can help you control the narrative about yourself and introduce yourself in the best light possible. It’s also a way to stand out from the competition. In a world where everyone has an online presence, personal branding can help you make yours stand out from the rest”

        There are a number of ways to promote your personal brand. Below is a list that we here at STEM Recruitment Partners have compiled together for engineering jobseekers.

        Online Presence and Personal Branding:

        LinkedIn

        LinkedIn is a professional social media site used by professionals to connect with other like-minded professionals and organisations. It can be used to aid your jobseeker search as all recruiters use it as one of the first protocols when searching for candidates.

         LinkedIn is a powerful tool for personal branding and career development for all engineers.
        LinkedIn is a powerful tool for personal branding and career development for all engineers.

        LinkedIn can also be used to build your network, strengthen your brand positioning, and get noticed by potential project partners or hiring managers for top engineering organisations. Being visible on LinkedIn by keeping your profile optimised will help you get noticed.

        Be Active

        Its not enough to just have a presence on LinkedIn you need to engage with the community to really stand out. By engaging in engineering group posts and providing commentary on latest news within the engineering field that you are in will allow you to become an industry expert.

        Having a personal brand in place will allow you to be more trusted by your target audience. In the same way that product brands such as Apple and Volkswagen are trusted personal brand is trusted by those you want to reach.

        Having a personal brand in place allows your target audience to know who you are and what you stand for. This allows them to feel like they already have a relationship with you and thus are more likely to use your services or hire you for the engineering job.

        Commit an hour per week to updating content to engaging on social media which will allow you to become the go to person in a particular engineering field.

        We worked with Teresa in 2022 to help fill our requirement for new project engineers within the company. Teresa’s approach to understand our business needs was fantastic and coupled with her positive attitude Teresa delivered some great candidates.

        Our aim was to fill one role but due to the high level of candidate’s provided we filled two engineer positions, and both are still with us today in late 2023 and proving to be an integral part of our company. We look forward to working with Teresa again in the near future to assist us in the recruitment of critical engineering roles within the business.
