what do you see in the mirror?

Isn't it hard to define yourself? It's messy and complicated and can be daunting!

Did I cover all my strengths?

Surely there is more to me than just that!!

Am I bragging?

Should I include this, is it even relevant!

Does anyone even care what I say?

How far back do I go, am I a sum of all those years?

Or am I a whole different being today.

Yes, that's it! I should just talk about the here and now!

No, I should list all the things that I have done to get here....

If you are reading this and feel like you have faced the conundrum of defining yourself - I would love to hear from you!

In the meantime here is a ranting blog post that talks about how to tackle many years of work experience on your resume/ elevator pitch without having people roll their eyes https://thingscareerrelated.com/2021/11/23/years-of-experience-in-your-elevator-pitch-and-on-resume-could-hurt-you/
