Presented by: Betsy Westhoff, Marketing Consultant
 

     Coke, Nike and Apple are brands.  Have you ever asked yourself whether the principles these well established companies use to communicate “what they are all about” are the same ones that you should use to tell people about your strengths?  Well, they are!

Developing your brand and communicating how you can enhance an organization is key to your job search.
