I have never thought about necessarily marketing myself. Although I want to focus my career on public health, I've realized marketing is something I can do every day to increase my chances for success in any career. I want to start writing my thoughts on LinkedIn, and gaining credibility in the community. As I get closer to graduating, I've realized how essential it is to have connections in the community. There are plenty of opportunities to get out there, and to have conversations about public health issues. If I started my spending one day a week to reflect on my studies, and my opinions I could see a great difference in the next year.
Marketing myself means I am going to idenitfy my strengths, and learn how to improve as a person. I was able to relate marketing to the many public health campaigns I've crossed in the last year. Having the ability to educate the public and improve health through free research is a great start to where I want to be in my career. Depending on my job, I will be able to use my marketing skills to figure out who my target audience is, and how I want to get my message acrossed based on the consumer.
