Building a personal website will help you stand out among other applicants. Some free platforms
include WordPress, Wix, and Weebly, but feel free to experiment with your favorite!
What to do:
• Host all of your social media links in one spot. Make sure to include all your profiles so employers
can easily click on the site they wish to connect with you.
• Web pages can include your professional summary, skill sets, experiences, references, and contact
information.
• Include pictures, video resumes, documents, or video references to better connect with
employers.
• Create a link that can be easily remembered. Pay for your own domain if you so choose.
• Include a link to your personal website on your resume, business cards, and email signature.
• Create free QR codes for your website to add to your resume and business cards for easier access.
