After that, we took part in a very interesting talk show with the theme "Joint Productivity to Develop the Nation. Personal branding according to the three speakers explained is the process of building and managing a person's personal image and reputation. This involves determining the values, skills and unique characteristics that distinguishing someone from others, as well as ways to communicate this to others through various platforms and interactions. The aim of personal branding is to create a positive impression and build strong relationships with relevant audiences, both in professional and personal contexts.
Mr. Nusaman also explained that building personal branding as a student to prepare to enter the world of work requires several strategic steps: Determining Brand Identity: Know yourself well. Define your unique values, interests, skills, and goals. Identify what makes you different and special. Competency Mastery: Improve and develop skills and knowledge relevant to the field or industry you are interested in. Get involved in projects, internships, or extracurricular activities that can strengthen your skills.
Relevant Online Content: Create and maintain an online profile that reflects your identity and expertise. This could include a regularly updated LinkedIn profile, a personal blog or website highlighting your projects or experience, and active engagement on relevant social media platforms. Networking: Build a professional network with fellow students, lecturers, alumni, and professionals in the industry you are interested in. Attend networking events, seminars, or conferences to expand your network. Brand Yourself in the Community: Get involved in activities and projects on and off campus that allow you to demonstrate your leadership, interpersonal skills, and contributions to society. Consistency and Authenticity: Make sure that your messages and actions are consistent with the personal image you want to build. Be authentic and transparent in your interactions with others. Learn about the World of Work: Research industry trends, companies, and job positions you're interested in. Understand what the job market requires and prepare yourself to meet those demands.
Productivity is a measure of efficiency in producing output produced with the resources used according to Mr. Prof. Dr. Jusuf Madubun, M.Si, doing small things like what Unpatti has done, helping the community to care more about waste and then helping to make the nation's life smarter, is also an important point that has become a reference in the world of work.
Use social media well, don't post something that has no value because that is one form of assessment when entering the world of work. Sometimes your social media determines whether you are accepted or not. Always have big dreams because with dreams there are two possibilities for success.
Then, to enter the world of work, we are expected to be able to improve our quality by joining an organization that can train us so that in the world of work we are ready to work well.
