today I’m going to do a quick review of
an odesk profile and give my tips and
feedback on how to improve it hi I’m
Evan Carmichael I believe in
entrepreneurs welcome to another
technology tuesday today i’m answering a
question for one of my YouTube followers
love you guys Bobby who wrote in to say
hello everyone I love your video it
helped me a lot thanks Bobby please
allow me your thoughts about my Odessa
profile hope you won’t give it a hard
time I’m just a newbie one to learn more
in order to be hired thank you so Bobby
this one is for you I’m gonna head over
to my computer check out your profile
and give you some feedback okay so I
bloated not Bobby’s profile the first
thing I always look at is her picture
and what I love about this one is Bobby
smiling he has got a professional
collared shirt on it’s a warm picture
makes me relate to him and makes me feel
like hey bob is a nice hard-working guy
and and that’s important the only thing
I would fix on this is a little low
resolution it’s a little blurry a little
hard to see so I try to take another
picture try to keep that same shirt keep
that same smile just take a higher
quality picture the next thing I look at
is the overview and here in the overview
you know working for seven years is area
operations in charge of a third party
marketing services company of Nestle
Philippines Unilever from project
planning to reviewing and answering more
than 50 plus emails daily I’m the one
responsible for managing our social
media account as one of the
administrator for a nonprofit community
but doing research post editing pictures
okay so a couple of things one you want
to make you want to make sure as you go
through this not to have any errors
right so as one of the administrators
right that should be plural as well this
is boring right it’s a boring over you
this is like a typical resume and now
you look like everybody else if your
social media manager I would say I love
working to social media I spend all my
day on social media something like show
me your passion for social media show me
how you love helping businesses with
their social media why is it important
to you right like that’s going to make
you jump off the page where most people
are going to be super boring and give me
exactly what you gave me here so
definitely check for spelling and
grammar mistakes but give me some more
passion and energy in love especially up
this top because it’s looking
pretty boring next thing go down look at
your tests so we look at the test you’ve
done two tests okay the first is English
spelling test 75 is okay but not great
and if I’m hiring somebody who’s going
to be a social media manager I may need
somebody who can speak English really
well and write English really well right
if you’re going to be writing to people
and connecting with them then your
English should be at a high level and
maybe it is you just didn’t do so well
on the test some positions I don’t care
you know if I’m hiring a computer
programmer from hiring a graphic
designer I you know English spelling and
grammar is not at the top of the list
because they’re only communicating with
me as long as we can have a dialogue but
if you’re doing anything public facing
anything when you’re dealing with
potential customers your English should
be higher so if I’m looking at that then
I’m saying I don’t know if I want to
hire Bobby to be my social media manager
so get to work and boost this up the
next is social media marketing test 57
Bobby baby what are we doing here your
social media manager you got to get that
score up brother because I’m looking at
that insane Wow I am NOT going to hire
this guy because he almost failed the
social media marketing test so work on
your two tests and because you don’t
have any experience yet I’d add more
tests put more tests in there look at
anything that’s related to social media
at all or writing or English anything
take that test study practice don’t just
go into it put effort into it and have
high scores because if you have a high
score I’m much more likely to hire you
okay next you don’t have any jobs so I
mean you’re just getting started you
want to get some jobs as soon as you can
even if you’re doing it at a below
market rate just to get some feedback
right i want to see five stars here so
you want to make sure you get a few jobs
in your belt and then the thing that
will help us get a portfolio where’s
your portfolio where can i see the work
that you’ve done right show me the kinds
of work that you’re doing show me some
client examples if you can’t share what
you did with Nestle is from your clients
just make something up do it for
yourself do it for a fake company just
show what you can do right if you’re
creating content you’re making a
presentation design make a fake
presentation
make a presentation design for Evan
Carmichael right just put something up
here so I can get a sense of your skills
because you don’t have any work
experience yet all those other things so
there’s five things we talked about
right the picture the overview the tests
that you’ve taken the jobs that you’ve
had and the score in the portfolio you
don’t have a job yet so that’s how it
was going to be I heard against you it’s
going to be a strike against you so
there’s other five things picture
overview tasks and portfolio you’ve got
to amp that out if you make that really
special then you will step off the page
when somebody’s looking to hire the next
social meeting manager and they say we
got to have Bobby on our team so why we
hope that helped it looks like you have
a little bit more work to do so good
luck on that so those are watching if
