Why have a personal website at all
When someone is considering you for a role, a project or an opportunity, they will search for you. A personal website means they find something you control, written the way you want to be seen.
What to put on it
Keep it focused. A strong professional site usually has:
- A clear statement of what you do and who you do it for.
- A short about section that tells your story in your own voice.
- Selected work, results or examples that back up your claims.
- Your CV or experience summary and an easy way to get in touch.
How it supports your job search
Link to your site from your CV, LinkedIn and email signature. It gives hiring managers a fuller picture than a two-page document and shows that you take your professional presence seriously.
