    On this episode, Clara shares her past heartaches and how she was able to move on to focus on herself again. It's tough to "self-love", when you are in the mindset of missing someone and constantly reflecting back on the relationship. But, it's so important to put yourself first and wait for the time to heal you.

    How to Build Personal Brand Virtually at Work and Linkedln During the Pandemic + Tips on Job Searching

    EP 03: Now that we are operating 100% at home, building your personal brand seems a bit harder than ever. But, personal brand is so crucial and in fact possible to build in a work or online setting if you incorporate the right actions to it.  How you describe yourself to others through your skills, experience, and attitude can really develop how others perceive you overall. In the case of recruitment, personal brand is even more prominent and with the right actions - you can get the result that you want! With that note, Clara's journey with building her personal brand mostly stems at her current full time job that she started recently after graduating from University of Toronto. On this episode, Clara and her guest discuss on their experiences with personal branding at work, on LinkedIn, and some tips that they implemented as they were recruiting exactly a year ago.  Hope you enjoy this episode!
